Description

Cells twenty-nine through thirty-two fill band eight of Das Kloster, issued in 1847 under Johann Scheible's editorship. The set had become the place where lost German print came back to light. Scheible bought, borrowed, and reprinted texts that most scholars of his day had never seen.

Folk magic leads again: grimoires, conjuring books in the Faust line, and the dreaded Höllenzwänge. Folk charms for house, field, and body keep company with chapbook tales. Taken as a whole, the band reads like a fair stall of the old print world. Its value lies in breadth: high sorcery and kitchen lore preserved in one binding.
