Summa Sacre Magice: The Compendium of Sacred Magic
The most significant surviving Latin text on magic, the Summa Sacre Magice is now available in English for the first time ever.
Dating from 1346, the Summa Sacre Magice by Berengarius Ganelli provides the foundation for many grimoires and contains practical magic that has been lost from later manuscripts. Owned by Johannes Trithemius and Dr. John Dee, this text is the root of Shemhamphorash, Solomonic, and Enochian magic.
Translated by Dr. Stephen Skinner and Daniel Clark, this volume contains the first two books. It features some of the earliest details of angelic invocations from the Almadel, tables from the Shemhamphorash, the ten candariis talismans, and the hierarchy of Tartarus. It also offers instructions for making four of Solomon's magical rings and his pentagram, sacred knowledge that passed through only four previous teachers.
