The Great Grimoire of Pope Honorius III [Hardcover]

Pope Honorius III (Author)

The Trident edition of the Grimoire of Honorius is the first and only English edition of the Grimoire of Honorius, and is further unique because it is a translation of the German edition that appeared in Johann Scheible's Das Kloster. The manuscript reprinted by Scheible was one of a kind, having been discovered by Scheible in the possesion of a German peasant. Prior to this, all known edition of the Grimoire of Honorius had been in French.

This edition is as complete as is possible and represents the most reliable presentation of this famous grimoire ever published. Included are the sigils and illustrations known to be associated with this work as well as material related to Pope Honorius, such as the famous "Constitution of Pope Honorius" (given in both the original French & English). The Grimoire of Pope Honorius III has been diligently translated by Ms. Kim Ch'ien from the Old German. This edition includes an introduction by the translator, a biographical sketch of the life of Pope Honorius, a bibliographic prolegomenon by John Davis, a survey of antique editions of this grimoire and also a translation of the 15th century Ecclesiastic work "Conjurationes Demonum," translated from the Latin by Mr. Matthew Sullivan as an appendix.
