The Grand Albert is one of the most famous grimoires of the Renaissance era. Often associated with the Petit Albert, it is largely attributed to Saint Albert the Great, who was one of the brightest minds of XIIIth century Europe, but it also contains anonymous texts that can be attributed all the way from early Renaissance authors like Paracelsus, to Greek and Latin physicians from Antiquity.It is composed of four books, and discusses various wonders of nature in great length, including the generation of the embryo, the mysterious properties of herbs, gems and wild animals, a table of planetary influences, medicinal recipes, and much more.This is the first fully translated edition of this grimoire from French to modern English, and it is invaluable to anyone interested in the study of medieval sciences.
