Maximilian Schele de Vere was a professor of modern languages at the University of Virginia and a founding member of the American Philological Society.
Schele de Vere wrote many articles on a variety of subjects for national journals during the 1870s and 1880s. In 1873, he published an essential volume on the occult, "Modern Magic".
Using various types of occult practices, Vere sheds a light on the types of magic and necromancy practised during the time this book was written. He draws on many sources and educates everyone in where these types of forms came from, who are the major players and how they are being practised in his time.
