" Forbidden Rites lays a solid foundation for future research on this topic and establishes a very high scholarly standard." --Frank Klaassen Canadian Journal of History, " Forbidden Rites opens a window onto aspects of late-medieval religion and culture that have often been hidden in the shadows. The material is fascinating, the arguments compelling. . . . All told, this is one of the most important works on late medieval magic from one of its most perceptive historians." --Rudolph Paul Almasy Sixteenth Century Journal, "I was captivated . . . by Forbidden Rites , part of an excellent series under the rubric Magic in History; with wonderful wit and succinct contextual insights, Richard Kieckhefer has edited a German wizard's grimoire, packed with spells for Prospero-like conjurations of phantom banquets and castles in the air, as well as complicated charms, many involving hoopoes, against all manner of ills." --Marina Warner, Times Literary Supplement, &"Forbidden Rites lays a solid foundation for future research on this topic and establishes a very high scholarly standard.&" &-Frank Klaassen, Canadian Journal of History, " Forbidden Rites opens a window onto aspects of late-medieval religion and culture that have often been hidden in the shadows.

With his edition of the Latin text and thorough analysis which accompanies it, Professor Kieckhefer has made accessible the aims, intents, and mentalities of the medieval necromancer." -Gillian Pritchard, Medieval History, &"This book is enormously important. Building on his previous work, especially Magic in the Middle Ages (Cambridge, 1989), the author develops his formative insights into the subject of religion and magic in the late Middle Ages and also offers an edition of a truncated, therefore authorless and titleless, fifteenth-century manuscript (in Munich Clm 849) of a magical handbook.&" &-Jeffrey Burton Russell, Church History, "This book is enormously important.
