November 15th: A Necromancer’s Manual

This week’s reading, suggested by our own local necromancer Skeue Euphemeo: Forbidden Rites: A Necromancer’s Manual of the Fifteenth Century by Richard Kieckhefer.

Please read the introduction (pages 1-21).

Then, pick a branch of magic to specialize in for the evening!
Please read either:
Illusionist Experiments “Banquets, Horses, and Castles,” (pages 42-68) or
Psychological Experiments “Love, Favour, and Madness” (pages 69-95) or
Divinatory Experiments “Learning Hidden & Future Things” (pages 96-125)

(If you’re feeling indecisive, the chart on page 38 gives you an overview of each of the main magical themes.)
