Did Doctor Faustus Sell his Soul?Everyone believes Faustus invoked the Devil and sold his soul, but did he? Find out why the legend was the witchcraft trial of a dead man in this rich and vivid story of magic and magicians in the Renaissance. Highly recommended. Faustus: The Life and Times of a Renaissance MagicianFaustus: The Life and Times of a Renaissance Magician was read by experts in the field even before it went to print. The book so impressed two university professors and an expert on the occult that they were willing to publicly endorse it. Here is what they had to say: Dr Ruickbie has re-evaluated and contextualised the sources of the Faust tradition from a position of authority. The result is a work of meticulous scholarship that can be read as a gripping page-turner. Professor Osman Durrani, University of Kent During the Renaissance and Reformation, in a period of major historical changes, a delicate and complicated line separated the historical Faustus from the legendary one. Investigating the lures and dangers of astrology, magic, and devil pacts, Leo Ruickbie succeeds in reconstructing the events that reflect the birth and progress of the Faustian myth, and the man behind it. Professor Frank Baron, University of Kansas In looking at Faustus from the magical perspective Dr Ruickbie himself takes on the sorcerer's mantle as he summons up a nebulous shade from the distant past, giving it new life and making compelling reading. Alan Richardson, occult author Explore Faustus
