A Faithfully Reconstructed Sourcebook of 17th, 18th & 19th Century Magic

Over three centuries of pivotal magical development, four occult philosophers recorded charms, seals, talismans, and magical lore into a single book. Now, Daniel Harms makes this priceless volume accessible to all collectors and historians through his expert transcription, annotations, and translations of the English, Latin, and Welsh content.

Preserving the red and black text of the original handwritten manuscript, The Book of Four Occult Philosophers reveals centuries' worth of secrets gathered by Robert Cross Smith (Raphael), Olivia Serres (Princess Olive), Thomas Harrington, and an unknown individual only identified as "W." Their compilation of magical operations contains historical spells and rituals alongside passages about fairies, astrology, numerology, demon conjuring, and more. Explore recipes to bind a spirit, attract a female familiar, make men appear in horns, and find the virtue of mandrakes. Featuring hundreds of illustrations replicated by S. Aldarnay, this compendium of ceremonial magic is the perfect addition to any collection of treasured occult works.

Translated and Annotated from Manuscript 116 in the Bodleian Library's Francis Douce collection

The Book of Four Occult Philosophers, by Daniel Harms

Through expert annotations and translations of original English, Latin, and Welsh content, Daniel Harms has made this untitled volume accessible to all collectors with this new hardcover book. The Book of Four Occult Philosophers reveals the secrets Robert Cross Smith (Raphael), Olivia Serres (Princess Olive), Thomas Harrington, and an unknown individual credited as "W." recorded over three centuries. This compendium of ceremonial magic contains historical spells, recipes, & rituals alongside passages about fairies, astrology, numerology, and more. With red and black text and hundreds of illustrations by S. Aldarnay, this magical miscellany is the perfect addition to any collection of treasured occult works.

Also by Daniel Harms: A fascinating addition to the magical literature of the Elizabethan era, this lavishly illustrated grimoire is a must-have for magic practitioners, collectors, and historians. A collection of herbal formulas and magical prayers, The Long-Lost Friend draws from the traditional folk magic of Pennsylvania Dutch customs and pow-wow healers. Discovered among the antiquarian stacks of the Bodleian Library, this authentic work of seventeenth-century English magic has been meticulously transcribed and annotated by Daniel Harms and illustrated by James R. Clark.

3.0 out of 5 stars The contents itself are fine, however
Reviewed in Canada on May 10, 2023
No complaints about the book or the quality of which it was made. The pages are of good quality. The font is easily readable and for all reasons except for the condition I received the book, this review should be a five star.

However, the condition I received the book was pretty disappointing. First off I was just thrown in a box with minimal padding, and because of that the top corner was damaged.

Second off for some reason, there is a brown stain on the third page, not overly large, but considering this is a brand new book there should be zero stains.

Like I said, great book, good content, but since it is an expensive book, you might want to get it from a retailer that takes care in packaging their products
