Arabic erotic literature has a long and rich history, which goes back as far as the ninth century. Far from being the pursuit of prurient pornographers, eroticism and sexuality received considerable attention from scholars.Written by Nasir al-Din al-Tusi (1201 - 1274), one of the leading scientists of the age, The Sultans Sex Potions is part of a relatively small group of works devoted to aphrodisiacs, as well as sexual stimulants, sexual practices and positions. Sober and measured in tone, the work was intended to be a manual, which would allow the patient to dispense with the services of a physician. Written at the request of the ruler, its potions, electuaries, syrups and enemas enjoyed a royal warrant of appointment to arouse the lust for coitus and enhance sexual potency.This bilingual volume includes a critical edition of three manuscripts (Berlin, Cairo and Glasgow) and is accompanied by a translation, as well as an introduction to Arabic erotic literature, a biography of the author and extensive indexes.

Were the Huns, Goths, Vandals, Franks and Saxons as mindlessly violent as popular belief suggests? Or were they only too human, struggling for freedom and survival?Society was in turmoil political instability and economic uncertainty divided loyalties in Europe. Entrepreneurs and opportunists were prepared to risk all in bids for power. Men such as Attila the Hun, Gaiseric the Vandal and Alaric the Goth pitted their wits against the leaders of the rapidly mutating Roman establishment in the fourth to sixth centuries.Studded with painstakingly researched anecdotes of scandal, court gossip, superstition and fanatical religious beliefs, Warriors of the Dark Ages takes a refreshing look at a complex story of pawns and manipulators, saints and sinners, which was resolved when people with very different values and outlooks learned to accept each other. The finale was uplifting a tale of human conflict painfully moulded into a brilliant new future as modern Europe and its component states. Through the writings of ancient commentators, glimpse the love, hate, treachery and, at times, humour as prevalent in the European Dark Ages as they are today.

Desde a sua época, as pessoas que viam Cagliostro agir, que o observavam e o interrogavam admitiam ser impossível julgá-lo. Uns o reverenciavam como um verdadeiro deus, outros o odiavam. Certamente, nenhuma personalidade permaneceu mais enigmatica ao longo da Historia do que este homem. Mas, afinal, quem foi Cagliostro? Acerca de sua vida, lendas e calunias se acumularam. Desde que estava vivo ate depois da sua morte, historias a seu respeito se espalharam e odios religiosos o perseguiram. Por no encontrarem nada que explicasse seus atos, os historiadores logo o deixaram de lado e a literatura tomou para si o papel de torna-lo um personagem classico. Das lendas, exageros e impericias de seus discipulos e admiradores construiu-se a imagem do mago Cagliostro: um homem rico, dono de uma fortuna que ninguem sabia de onde provinha, dotado de um poder especial para a cura e realizador de milagres que enciumavam os medicos e poderosos de sua epoca. Um homem que ajudava a todos, que inclusive dava abrigo e dinheiro aos pobres fieis que trilhavam longas viagens em busca de uma possivel cura. Uma personalidade que despertava odio e amor e da qual, no entanto, temos apenas uma ideia aproximada. Cagliostro O Grande Mestre do Oculto e uma obra biografica que, baseada em textos oficiais, referencias de contemporaneos imparciais e cartas e petiçes escritas pelo proprio Cagliostro, busca iluminar mais um pouco o carater de um homem to cercado de misterios e suas relaçes com o Hermetismo, a Alquimia e a Maçonaria.
