Описание:
Once intended a sequel to "The Sorcerer's Handbook" by Joshua Free while writing as "Merlyn Stone" in the 1990's, his "notebooks" composing the historically legendary "1998 Book of Shadows"-and eventually "The Witch's Handbook"-were only released privately to members of his own Coven operating in Colorado, and other groups he networked with, during a peak period of development for the modern "New Age."
Among the many facets explored within these pages, you will also encounter the complete structure of the original century-old "Book of Shadows," illuminated for the first time with a new revolutionary never before published presentation of concise descriptions and references that uncover influential behind-the-scenes sources of many contemporary Wiccan and traditionalist Witchcraft movements. Rites of Initiation, Consecration Rituals, Tools, Herbs, Sabbats, Ceremonies, Ritual Magic, Spellcraft... It's all here
From the Key of Solomon, to the Rites of the Golden Dawn and OTO, to the Aradian Gospel of Witches, to the relatively modern innovation of a "Neopagan Eightfold Year" by three men: a Druid (Ross Nichols), a Magician (Aleister Crowley) and a Witch (Gerald Gardner); an underlying story unfolds beneath and back of the 20th Century Witchcraft revival and no stone or pentacle is left unturned in this effective, yet candid, complete practical guide to the true "Arts of Witchcraft."
Long-standing and returning fans will celebrate the release of The Witch's Handbook as the "missing link" of a once proposed "Merlyn Stone" trilogy from the 1990's, which includes "The Sorcerer's Handbook" and "The Druid's Handbook"-both of which have been widely accepted in the underground "New Age" scene already.
This special premiere edition is dedicated by the author to Fairuza Balk and, as a bonus, features Joshua Free's tribute to "The Craft" movie, including his previously unpublished treatment of its practical witchcraft as "Nancy's Book of Shadows."
"The desire to understand magic in any specific cultural context is an intellectual puzzle not only for scholars but believers." - Jim Baker
The Cunning Man's Handbook is a monumental work of phenomenal scope and scholarship, a comprehensive and challenging exploration of the practices and beliefs of Cunning Folk in Britain and America between 1550-1900, their heyday. Exploring the social and theological milieu of the period, the author demonstrates the essentially Christian nature of Cunning practices, presenting an illuminating discourse on the concept of magic and its perceived methodologies.
Operating at the boundaries of the law and society, between medicine and magic, Cunning men and women occupied a liminal role as healers, charmers and magicians. Drawing from a huge range of sources, the range of services offered by Cunning Folk is thoroughly expounded, from divination through astrology and geomancy to dream interpretation, from charms, spells and curses to conjurations and treasure hunting. As author Jim Baker states, "The focus here is on the practice of folk magic and divination for access to the preternatural".
The evolution of Cunning practices as a living tradition over a 350-year span is explored in depth, illustrating their practical and contemporary nature. The analogous practices of African-American conjure and root work are also discussed and offer insights into oral fragments of Cunning practices lost to history, presenting a compelling example of how modernity modifies tradition. Referencing dozens of Cunning men and women and their practices, this work offers a unique glimpse into magical history, and the opportunity for readers to reclaim the practical essence of Cunning Magic.
