From the publisher-

"Presented as a sequel to his first work, The Book of St. Cyprian: The Sorcerer’s Treasure, the Opuscula Cypriani: Variations on the Book of St. Cyprian and Related Literature is José Leitão’s most extensive and detailed exposition of the tradition of the Portuguese Cyprian Books to date.

"Covering a timespan from the 17th century until the late 1920s, this work contains an unprecedented amount of Portuguese Cyprian-related material. From the records of the Inquisition to anonymous prayers, from elusive and previously unpublished manuscripts to printed books, and from pamphlets to periodicals, José takes us through a history of Portuguese sorcery and its various books, all of which, in one way or another, are branded with the name of the sorcerer Saint."
