Description: Books Ⅰ–Ⅳ

Written in 1500 by Johannes Trithemius, the teacher of Cornelius Agrippa and Paracelsus, the Steganographia is a famous text about the evocation of spirits and the cryptography associated with them. In 1976, Books Ⅰ and Ⅲ were partially published in English, but never have all four books been published in English — until now.

This hardcover edition from Dr. Stephen Skinner and Daniel Clark contains the remaining parts of Books Ⅰ and Ⅲ (detailed spirit registers covering thirty-two spirits). It also features a full translation of Book Ⅱ (containing another twenty-five spirits) and Book Ⅳ, which relates the Steganographia to Paracelsus, the Almadel, and the Shemhamaphorash of Solomon, Adam, and Moses.

Featuring extensively researched explanations by Skinner and Clark, the complete Steganographia can now be a celebrated part of your library.
