"Touch Me Not is an Austrian manuscript compendium of the black magical arts, completed c.1795. Unique and other-worldly, it evokes a realm of visceral dark magic. Psychedelic drug use, animal sacrifice, sigillary body art, masturbation fantasy and the necromantic manipulation of gallows-corps count amoung the transgressive procedures it depicts. With their aid, hidden treasures are wrested from guardian spirits, and the black magician's highest ambition -- an infernal transfiguration and union with the Devil -- can be fulfilled. Hidden for decades within the Wellcome Library collection, Touch Me Not is here translated and offered as a full-colour facsimile for the first time." --Publisher.
