EDIT: I have recently learned that the primary author of this manuscript was in fact Robert Ashley, founder of the Middle Temple Library in London. While I have not yet had a chance to return to this paper in order to correct it, I would like to thank Renae Satterly of the Middle Temple Library for letting me know that she has identified Ashley's handwriting. I hope someday to write a corrected and more complete version of this paper which relates this manuscript to Ashley's life and book collecting. --- This paper is a full transcription, annotation, and in-depth analysis of Newberry Manuscript 5017, referred to as "Book of Magical Charms." Based on my detailed analysis of the contents, I propose that this manuscript was the notebook of at least one early 16th century male witch, who was probably active in the East of England or the East Midlands. As I will argue, this witch was most likely what we today know as a cunning-man, whose primary business was to assist locals with everyday problems ranging from stomach aches to cheating spouses. As I will demonstrate, the primary owner of this notebook was a typical cunning-man, who employed various kinds of magic - both benign and malignant - for his business purposes. This manuscript offers a unique glimpse into the world of everyday Renaissance magic, some of which I hope to uncover here.
protection of the body, Book of the protection of the King in his house, spells for averting the evil eye, knowledge of the recurrence of the two stars [i.e. sun and moon], control over the recurrence of the stars, enumeration of all places, and protective formulae for the departure of Your Majesty from your temple for Your feasts. 5 Strom. VII 4. 35-37. He lists forty-two books corresponding to ten different categories: hymns to the gods, an account of the king's life, astrological books, hieroglyphic books of varied content (mostly technical), books on education and the art of sacrifice, hieratic books, and medical books. 6 In quite a broad sense: linguistic, stylistic, religious and so on. 7 It is not in contradiction with the fact that the magical papyri were written in

Alii damones malos virtute divinorum nominum adjuratos, advocare solent, atque haec est illa Necromantiae species quae dicitur malefica: vel in Theurgiam, quae quasi bonis Angelis, divinoque numine regitur (ut nonnulli putant) cum sapissime tamen sub Dei, et Angelorum nominibus malis Daemnoun illusionibus peragitur."--ROBERT FLUDD.

Most texts use more than one language, usually a combination of Hebrew with Aramaic or with Judeo-Arabic. As a rule the amulets were produced for specific users, who were named in the text. Sometimes we encounter a generic amulet, characterized by the formula "for the wearer (or: for any wearer) of this amulet" "‰Ê ÚÈÓ˜ ‡˘Â (ÏÎ)Ï". 2 Amulets were usually written by professionals, on behalf of clients who commissioned them for specific purposes. 3 The persons responsible for writing amulets may have been magicians, scribes or rabbinic scholars, and their true identity is a matter of debate. One thing is certain: these professionals frequently employed magical manuals or handbooks in order to produce the amulets they wrote. Fragments of many such handbooks have been preserved in the Cairo Genizah, and scholars of Jewish magic are familiar with much earlier examples. 4

This is a document that connects the inner working of the mind and the biochemistry of the body to help show how magick/magic actually works within the world. It also demonstrates how one can develop and teach themselves not only how to use it for whatever purpose but to also show one how the power of healing the body can actually work through a power of thought and eating in a proper way. People need to understand that even foods can carry with them a negative vibration and born in through the use of toxic chemicals which elevate negative vibrations in the body. Once this is removed and the psychology is corrected to remove the inundation and realization of actual capabilities is realized the potential of the person goes far beyond the original thought.

The Materiality of Magic is an exciting new book about an aspect of magic that is usually neglected. In the last two decades we have had many books and proceedings of conferences on the concept of magic itself as well as its history, formulas and incantations in antiquity, both in East and West. Much less attention, however, has been paid to the material that was used by the magicians for their conjuring activities. This is the first book of its kind that focuses on the material aspects of magic, such as amulets, drawings, figurines, gems, grimoires, rings, and voodoo dolls. The practice of magic required a specialist expertise that knew how to handle material such as lead, gold, stones, papyrus and terra cotta—material that sometimes was used for specific genres of magic. That is why we present in this well illustrated collection of studies new insights on the materiality of magic in antiquity by studying both the materials used for magic as well as the books in which the expertise was preserved. The main focus of the book is on antiquity, but we complement and contrast our material with examples ranging from the Ancient Near East, via early modern Europe, to the present time.
