Liber Florum Celestis Doctrine

The critical edition of John of Morigny's Liber florum, a fourteenth-century compilation of prayers and visualisations designed to obtain knowledge of the arts and sciences through the Virgin Mary, created as a pious alternative to the Solomonic Ars Notoria. The Latin text is accompanied by an extensive English introduction and apparatus. A specialist volume, but the definitive resource on a text that shows medieval learning magic transforming into devotional practice.
