This is a 100% accurate reproduction of the 1801 book The Magus by Francis Barrett. The book is a detailed compilation of esoteric practices, including ceremonial magic, alchemy, and astrology. Barrett based the work on historical texts and earlier esoteric traditions. It covers topics such as talisman creation, planetary effects, and the summoning of supernatural beings, providing a window into early 19th-century mystical thought. It serves as a significant resource for understanding Western Esotericism during the period, as well as its later development. This book would be an essential addition to the library of anyone interested in Western Esotericism and its development. Additionally, the book is relevant to early Mormon history. Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism, owned a copy of The Magus in his early years. Historians believe that The Magus likely influenced Smith's early participation in folk magic practices, including his use of a seer stone to look for buried treasure. The book may have reinforced Smith's belief in his ability to divine spiritual truths, blending folk magic with his emerging religious vision. These concepts may have carried over into the founding of Mormonism, through Smith's use of a seer stone to translate the Book of Mormon. Now, with this facsimile edition, those interested in early Mormon history can read The Magus for themselves and make their own determination. This Rogershaven Facsimile Edition is a faithful reproduction made from photographic scans of the pages of an authentic original edition. We have lovingly and carefully restored the text to ensure that this replica looks almost as good as a brand-new copy from 1801.
