Black Magic, White Magic & the Theory of Magic

Handwörterbuch des deutschen Aberglaubens

by Hanns Bächtold-Stäubli (ed.) · Eduard Hoffmann-Krayer

A ten-volume encyclopedia of German folk belief published between 1927 and 1942, with entries on charms, treasure lore, household spirits, the mandrake and countless other subjects. Its documentation is invaluable, though some entries reflect the nationalist assumptions of its period and need to be read critically.
