Synopsis
Card divination has long been a particularly iconic aspect of the Portuguese Book of Saint Cyprian, featuring in the cover illustrations of most of its nineteenth-century versions. Included in many of the cartomancy incantations is a small pseudo-hagiographical narrative which mentions a supposed seven-year seafaring journey made by Saint Cyprian himself. The origin and meaning of these thematically coherent incantations, as related to these cartomancy systems (or any other 'Cyprianic' divination method), has until now remained unresolved. In Clearing the Waters: A Monograph on Saint Cyprian Divination from the 17th to the 19th Century, author José Leitão utilises Portuguese Inquisition records and Prosecutor's Notebooks to unravel the mystery of the seafaring incantation, and how it has come to be associated with contemporary Cyprian divination. Also included is a discussion of other divinatory techniques found in the Book of Saint Cyprian, such as coscinomancy, favomancy, and hydromancy, of which many examples can be found in the extensive appendices., Card divination has long been a particularly iconic aspect of the Portuguese Book of Saint Cyprian , featuring in the cover illustrations of most of its nineteenth-century editions. Included in many of the cartomancy systems within this grimoire is a small pseudo-hagiographical narrative and incantation, which mentions a supposed seven-year seafaring journey made by Saint Cyprian himself. This incantation, when looked upon from a thematic, methodologic or historic perspective, seems out of place. Furthermore, similar incantations can also be found in several sources, both associated with cartomancy or any other 'Cyprianic' divination method, making the origin and meaning of these an unresolved question. In Clearing the Waters: A Monograph on Saint Cyprian Divination from the 17th to the 19th Century , author José Leitão collects an extensive corpus of divinatory and sorcerous practices from the records of the Portuguese Inquisition to unravel the mystery of this seafaring incantation, and how it has come to be associated with contemporary Cyprian divination. Along the way, this documentation reveals an untold history of four hundred years of Iberian urban magic, traversing coscinomancy, favomancy, and hydromancy, and culminating in the divinatory techniques found in the Book of Saint Cyprian . Besides offering historical clarification on the seafaring incantation, Clearing the Waters aims to be a bountiful resource and reference work by offering all the Inquisitorial documentation examined in detailed appendixes, most of which have been transcribed and translated into English for the first time.

- e***n (391)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufGreat transaction, exactly as described, packed well, and promptly shipped on August 6th. Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
