The Book of Oberon by Daniel Harms

The Book of Oberon by Daniel Harms

A fascinating addition to the magical literature of the Elizabethan era, this unique grimoire is a must-have for magic aficionados and historians. Dating from the time of Shakespeare (c. 1580), The Book of Oberon is a meticulous transcription and translation of a magic book recently rediscovered by the Folger Shakespearean Library. Unlike the more theoretical magic books of the era, this is a compilation of practical spells, secrets, and summonings. The Book of Oberon includes rituals for summoning spirits and faeries (including Oberon); original drawings; talismans and charms for toothaches, bleeding, the capture of thieves, and other practical matters; one of the oldest known copies of the magical manual The Enchiridion; and much more.

Daniel Harms holds master's degrees in anthropology and library and information science. He has been published in the Journal for the Academic Study of Magic and the Journal of Scholarly Publishing, and has written books on horror fiction and folklore. Joseph H. Peterson created the esotericarchives.com website. He is the author of six books on ceremonial magic and has published six other translations. James R. Clark is a self-taught artist.
