LIBELLUS VERNERI NIGRO SACER or Little Book Sacred to the Black Venus by John Dee (Deluxe Quarter Bound in Cobra)

Description

One of only three copies that were bound in cobra skin and tapas. Book is in fine condition

This edition of Tuba Veneris is an original translation of the Latin Warburg Manuscript No. FHB 510. I’ve tried very hard to make this as complete an edition as is humanly possible. To this end, it includes both the original Latin text with the English, laid out like the original manuscript. It also includes an annotated transcription of the Warburg manuscript by Richard Brzustowicz. Also included is an essay, The Magic of Tuba Veneris by noted occultist scholar Philip Legard, which includes its own end notes and bibliography. There is also a biographical work on the life of Dr. Dee, a Selected Manuscript Bibliography of the works of Dr. Dee and a complete reproduction of the original manuscript which the book is based on. It’s really an exhaustive edition.
