2025-10-14 17:17:42 +0000 UTC1757 - Banned Book of Exorcism with Magic and Amulets. I’ve worked with people who once thought exorcism was required for a patient. Reaching the point of spiritual care consult and a priest arriving for initial evaluation. Had it gone through, it would have been interesting to meet the visiting exorcist and, in a deadpan way, ensure that no amulets of too magical a sort were to be used.

2025-10-11 20:35:08 +0000 UTCMy favorite was/is the 1563 - Paracelsus on the Three-Fold Fundamentals of Alchemy ; I hope it has found a new home where someone will do the investment to help it survive the next centuries. After all we are more custodians than just owners of such items.

2025-10-11 08:26:34 +0000 UTCThe weird dichotomy of condemnation and preservation of witchcraft in Del Rio's "Disquisitionum magicarum libri sex" makes me want to learn latin just to understand the descriptions of rituals and spells. As exaggerated as they may be it would an amazing glimpse into witchcraft. Also the binding reminds me of the musical sheet binding of one of the books of the last batch 🎼
