Planetary Kamea & other plates from ‘Talismans Cabalistiques Magiques, grands secretes des Planettes’
“One of the more unusual and exotic treasures of The University of Newcastle is a French magical manuscript entitled ‘Talismans Cabalistiques Magiques, grands secretes des Planettes’. The manuscript from an unknown scribe bears the date 1704 in the reign of the Sun King Louis XIV, le Grand Monarque and le Roi Soleil (1638-1715). The book is a compendium of information relating to the manufacture of celestial talismans […][and] consists of an eclectic re-arrangement of chapters from Henry Cornelius Agrippa’s ‘De Occulta Philosophia’ (Three Books of Occult Philosophy) originally published in full in 1533.”
