More than eighty such handbooks survive, some of them in a fragmentary state. This volume, the first of two, is the work of an international team of papyrologists and historians of magic and presents fifty-four of the earlier handbooks or their fragments, spanning the period from second century BCE to third century CE, in a new edition which includes the original texts in the three languages (Greek, Demotic, Coptic) with a full material description and a facing translation with commentary"-- SN - 9781939926166 pehmeäkantinen KW - antiikki.
