THE LANGUAGE OF THE CORPSE: The Power of the Cadaver in Germanic and Icelandic Sorcery.

Three Hands Press, 2016. Limited Edition. A FINE CLOTH COPY in fine dust jacket. Among the ancient Germanic peoples, there existed a highly developed current of magical belief, stemming directly from certain practices with the Dead. In this work, the author has gathered disparate elements of magic, sorcery, and folklore in citing a number of extraordinary methods related to the Dead. By examining ancient and modern materials among the Teutonic peoples of Europe, Dickson began to distill an understanding of the powerful significance reserved not only for the revenants of the departed, but the magical essence of the physical remains as well. Small octavo. Item #X-LC
