A deluxe boxed set of three scholarly works on magic by Professor Claude Lecouteux.

Contains hardcover editions of Dictionary of Ancient Magic Words and Spells, Traditional Magic Spells for Protection and Healing, and The High Magic of Talismans and Amulets in a collector’s slipcase.

Analyzes more than 7,000 spells from European magical traditions and provides a comprehensive history of the use of talismans and amulets from the Middle Ages to today.

Through meticulous study of his private collection of medieval manuscripts as well as privileged access to the rare book archives of major European universities, Claude Lecouteux has become renowned in esoteric academic circles for his in-depth examinations of myths and magical practices of the Middle Ages.

In Dictionary of Ancient Magic Words and Spells, Lecouteux analyzes more than 7,000 spells from European magical traditions and grimoires, presenting a comprehensive dictionary of magic words, phrases, and alphabets.

In Traditional Magic Spells for Protection and Healing, he shares over 600 magical prescriptions from pagan and Christian sources spanning the last 2,000 years. He offers an in-depth look at protection magic, including healing spells from rare texts and the heavily guarded gypsy (Roma) tradition.

In The High Magic of Talismans and Amulets, he provides a comprehensive history of the use of talismans and amulets for protection, healing, and divine influence. He reviews many different types of amulets and talismans used throughout history, such as a rabbit’s foot, horseshoe, gris-gris bag, and inscribed parchment charged through ritual, detailing the magical principles behind each object and showing that their use remains as widespread today as in the past.
