The Book of Ceremonial Magic (Illustrated Edition)
Author: Arthur Edward Waite
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
The Book of Ceremonial Magic is famous as one of the first attempts to document various famous grimoires and other magic texts. In this work, Waite pays much attention to the history of magic texts, refuting many of their legends. He also raises a question of the relations between magic and theology. He discusses these issues in particular examples, like raising the question of why good angels would be summoned to kill an enemy. Another merit of this work is synthesizing many famous grimoires into one system.

Magic and Masculinity
Author: Frances Timbers
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0857735888
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 231
Book Description
In early modern England, the practice of ritual or ceremonial magic - the attempted communication with angels and demons - both reinforced and subverted existing concepts of gender. The majority of male magicians acted from a position of control and command commensurate with their social position in a patriarchal society; other men, however, used the notion of magic to subvert gender ideals while still aiming to attain hegemony. Whilst women who claimed to perform magic were usually more submissive in their attempted dealings with the spirit world, some female practitioners employed magic to undermine the patriarchal culture and further their own agenda. Frances Timbers studies the practice of ritual magic in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries focusing especially on gender and sexual perspectives. Using the examples of well-known individuals who set themselves up as magicians (including John Dee, Simon Forman and William Lilly), as well as unpublished diaries and journals, literature and legal records, this book provides a unique analysis of early modern ceremonial magic from a gender perspective.

Ceremonial Magic and Power of Evocation
Author: Joseph C. Lisiewski
Publisher: Original Falcon Press
ISBN: 9781935150862
Category : Magic
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
For centuries, the ceremonial evocation of spiritual beings has been Magic's darkest corner. Reputed to fulfil the Magician's material desires, evocation has been the topic of the most famous Grimoires -- the Grammars of Magic. From the Sworn Book of Honorius the Magician, to the Greater Key of Solomon and the Goetia; from the Grand Grimoire, to the complete treatise of the Lemegeton, all give direct, yet difficult, directions to the individual desiring to have the 'good life' in the here-and-now. But the simplest of Grimoires, the Heptameron of Peter de Abano, has escaped the attention of modern Ceremonialists. Its simplicity and power in summoning the Aerial Spirits is second to none. This book lays bare the operation of the Heptameron. Its Magical Axioms, extensive Commentaries, copious notes, and personal instructions to the reader -- all gained from Dr Lisiewski's forty-years of study and practice in Ceremonial Magic -- make this a resource that no serious student
