The Praxis Magica Faustiana consists of 14 full-color lithographs that date to the mid-19th century. These were faithfully copied from an earlier manuscript of the same name attributed to Dr. Johannes Faust. This book includes a conjuration to Paymon, an appeal to Lucifer, and the character of Mephistopheles. In this edition, the reader will find an accurate translation of the contents, unlike earlier editions, a well-researched analysis of the contents, and one of the cyphered conjurations decoded. This book is a classic of the grimoire genre. It is both suited for the collector's library as an exquisite example of Faustian aesthetics, as well as for the occult researchers interested in German magic.

The Magia Naturalis et Innaturalis was a popular grimoire in 18th Century Germany centering around the legend of Doctor Faust, to whom it was pseudo-epigraphically attributed. It contains a great array of magical practices centering around his mythical exploits aided by the spirit Mephistopheles.It remains relevant today as the foremost exemplar stemming from the Faustian Magical Literature and will prove indispensable for the scholars of Western Esotericism for its great array of magical practices dealing with topics like demonology, necromancy, the Liber Spirituum and divination as well as to the students of Goethe's sources for his magnum opus Faust.This critical edition, amply researched, provides historical and literary context through its introduction and commentary to students and scholars of magic and Faustian literature.
