The study of the Syriac magical traditions has largely been
marginalised within Syriac studies, with the earliest treatments
displaying a disparaging attitude towards both the culture and its
magical practices. Despite significant progress in more recent
scholarship in respect of the culture, its magical practices and
their associated literatures remain on the margins of the scholarly
imagination. This volume aims to open a discussion on the history
of the field, to evaluate how things have progressed, and to
suggest a fruitful way forward. In doing so, this volume
demonstrates the incredible riches contained within the Syriac
magical traditions, and the necessity of their study.
