A near fine copy in like slipcase. “The Ars Notoria, the magical art of memory, flourished during the Middle Ages, although its origins are attributed to Solomon and Apollonius of Tyana. It was a process by which the magician could instantly gain knowledge or memory of all the arts and sciences. Each branch of knowledge or subject area was assigned a set of magical seals and characters known as notae. To set the process into operation, the appropriate notae were contemplated whilst reciting angelic names and magical orisons. However, it was regarded as a diabolical form of magic, since the knowledge was quickly acquired from ‘demons’ without honest study” - Robert Turner (Elizabethan Magic). This edition is a verbatim reprint of the 1657 Robert Turner translation. Both the language and the spelling of the original edition have been maintained, to assure the integrity of this volume. Supplemental material by Lynn Thorndike and Adam McLean makes this edition indispensable.
