The Sorcerer’s Handbook: Medieval Arabic Magic in Context: Magical and Religious Literature of Late Antiquity, cartea 13

Emily Selove, Geoffrey Humble
en Hardback – 19 feb 2027
Sirāj al-Dīn al-Sakkākī was a rhetorician and court magician born in Khwarazm in 1160 CE (555 H). He was also the author of an Arabic grimoire titled Kitāb al-Shāmil wa-baḥr al-kāmil (The Book of the Complete). These essays explore the content and context of his grimoire from the perspective of a wide variety of disciplines and methodological approaches. They are divided according to four general themes: 1. Sakkākī’s historical context, 2: The relationship of his grimoire to magic books from other cultures and religions, 3. The relationship of his grimoire to other texts in Arabic, and 4. Experimental and creative approaches to The Book of the Complete and other magical texts.
