The Black Pullet is a grimoire that proposes to teach the science of magical talismans and rings, including the art of necromancy and Kabbalah. It is believed to have been written in the 18th century by an anonymous French officer who served in Napoleon's army. Written in the form of a narrative by the French officer during an expedition in Egypt, it tells the story of an attack by Arab soliders, during which the officer manages to escape. An old Turkish man appears suddenly from the pyramids and takes the French officer into a secret apartment within one of the pyramids. He nurses him back to health whilst sharing with him the magical teachings from ancient manuscripts. The book contains information about magical properties such as talismans and amulets, as well as teaching the reader how to gain power from these. The title refers to a hen that lays golden eggs - something which can be attained by the person who understands and gains the power mentioned in the grimoire.

This book is the second edition of a work which in its first edition was titled, more provocatively, The Book of Black Magic and of Pacts. This book is an attempt to synthesize the procedures of all of the famous Grimoires. It draws on the Key of Solomon, the Grimorium Verum, the apocryphal Fourth Book of Cornelius Agrippa, and many others, including the famous Black Pullet, or Poulet Noir. While Waite is careful in his analysis of the various Grimoires, he treats the subject matter skeptically. The result is an unparalleled look at the details of ceremonial magic.
York Beach, Maine, USA: Teitan Press, 2011. First Edition. Hardcover. Small Quarto. xvi + 46pp (vi), MS 40pp. Bound in high quality black cloth, with a gilt design stamped on the front cover, blind rules, and gilt title etc. on the spine. Printed on acid free paper, sewn, Color frontispieces. Edition limited to 650 numbered copies. The text of a previously-unpublished manuscript by Frederick Hockley, compiled by him circa. 1831 - 1833, and drawn largely from an earlier work of the same title, probably by Francis Barrett. The manuscript deals with the creation of talismans, and is divided into two parts, the first of which details methods for their manufacture "under the fixed stars" and the second "under the twenty-eight mansions of the moon." Both sets of concepts were popular in mediaeval and later European astrological and magical practice, having apparently been incorporated into them from Arabic astronomical and astrological treatises composed during the "Golden Age" of Arabic science from the middle of the eighth to the middle of the thirteenth centuries. This first published edition comprises an Introduction in which Silens Manus explores the history of the manuscript, and its relationship with other early magical works, notably those of Cornelius Agrippa. It also includes a loosely inserted four page "Addendum" by Hockley scholar Alan Thorogood, who reveals more about the history of "Abraham the Jew on Magic Talismans," including the discovery that Hockley's work is largely drawn from an earlier manuscript that is bound together with the original manuscript of Frances Barrett's "The Magus," suggesting that the text from which Hockley drew was probably compiled by Barrett himself (a copy of the "Addendum" is available as a free download on the Teitan Press website for those who purchased the book before the "Addendum" was released). The Introduction is followed by a typeset transcription of the text of the manuscript, with explanatory footnotes, etc., and a reproduction of various relevant passages from the 1651 edition of Agrippa's "Three Books of Occult Philosophy," which are without doubt the principal source of the Barrett / Hockley "Abraham." The final section is a facsimile of the original Hockley manuscript, printed on special coated paper that gives a photograph like quality to the reproduction. Frederick Hockley (1809-1885), was an occultist and Freemason with an interest in Spiritualism who in later life was associated with the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia. Hockley's peers considered him to be one of the great occult scholars of his time in fact he was held in such high regard by one of the founders of the Golden Dawn, W. Wynn Westcott, that he posthumously claimed Hockley as one of the Order's most outstanding Adepts. NEW book, fine condition. No dust jacket issued. Item #40294 ISBN: 9780933429246
The talismans dealing with animals usually have a double declination: one version of the talisman chases the animal away, while the other gathers all the specimens in the same place, implying perhaps different approaches to disinfestation.
Although it is an adaptation rather than a translation, the Arabic text preserves the same constitutive narrative elements of the Greek recension published by Nau: a mirror moulded from different metals, with seven stones on the frame, which shows everything on earth and in the sky, a different corner of the world on each of its polished sides. This parallel attestation of the mirror provides us with the possibility to check for the presence of any resemblance between the Greek and Arabic names of the spirits. Even with tentative restorations of the scarce dotting of the Arabic names, they do not seem to show any direct connection to the Greek names.18 The Arabic text specifies that this is a Syriac talisman, meaning that this copy (nusḫa) is from the Arabic.19 The strokes over the magical names are an interesting palaeographic feature related to the technical character of the text. They are meant to mark a clear separation of this peculiar component from the rest of the text: as words that were, like the rest, written in the Arabic alphabet, but that should not be read in the same way (Fig. 3).20
You should know, my son, that with these names I have brought forth all the talismans, and with them I have offered my services to kings, with them I have brought water to the land of Antioch with great canals, and they [the inhabitants] built mills for this purpose inside the city.
The Apolesmata, as material talismanic objects, belong to a particular typology: sometimes metallic plates, but mostly statues moulded and engraved with powerful names under particular astrological conditions. Sometimes they must be buried; sometimes placed on a pillar or in a shrine. In their fluid circulation, the different constitutive elements attracted other materials (e.g., the Dreckapotheke substances placed inside the statue, or the prominence of the astrological aspects over magic names). These talismans were meant for public use, to protect a certain space or a specific city from some calamity. In spite of these evident common traits and structural analogies, in the Arabic manuscript tradition the objects called Apotelesmata in Greek can be referred to using a number of different technical terms: ṣanam, tamṯīl, ṭilasm, ṣūra.
Qalfaṭīriyyāt may assume slightly different meanings in Arabic (magical signs and talismanic drawings). In this case, it seems to indicate the whole set of inscriptions on the surface of the mirror.
