  You've probably heard about Greek or Roman folklore, and even of Egyptian gods and goddesses, but have you heard about Chinese folklore? Let's explore this subject in quick, in this succinct book. 
  Chinese folklore is folklore from the geographical area now called China that has been given orally or documented. Several myths from different local and cultural customs are included in Chinese folklore. Much of folklore includes thrilling stories including impressive characters and beings, the use of magic powers, and normally occurs in a mythologically unique area or time. 
  Chinese folklore, like a lot of other folklores, was once thought to be, at the very least in part, a historic record. Chinese folklore, like Chinese folklore, is an important element of Chinese folk faith. Many legends about historic individuals and events have 2 customs: ones that present a more historicized or euhemerized variation and ones that present a more mythological variation. 
  Many myths focus on the whole universe's creation and cosmology, and also its divine beings and people. Production stories, the genesis of things, people, and civilization are all part of folklore.

  A magical grimoire of sigils and rituals for summoning and mastering spirits, The Key of Solomon the King is the most famous, or infamous, of all magick books. It has influenced everything from the revival of magick and the Western Mystery Traditions (tarot, alchemy, astrology, etc.) to fictional works such as Lovecraft’s The Necronomicon.Purported to have been penned by King Solomon himself, the book provides instruction for incantations, rituals, and sigils used to call upon and control spirits and demons. Those practicing magick have used it extensively through the centuries, but its true origins and purpose have been lost in the mists of time.No library of the contemporary occult student or practicing magician is complete without this tome. It remains a standard of esoteric lore by which others are measured. This edition includes a new foreword by noted esoteric scholar Joseph Peterson.

  Ann Arbor has seen many cherished landmarks and institutions come and go - some fondly remembered and others lost to time.When the city was little more than a village in the wilderness, its first school stood on the now busy corner of Main and Ann. Stores like Bach & Abel's and Dean & Co. served local needs as the village grew into a small town. As the town became a thriving city, Drake's and Maude's fed generations of hungry diners, and Fiegel's clothed father and son alike. Residents passed their time seeing movies at the Majestic or watching parades go down Main Street. Join authors Patti F. Smith and Britain Woodman on a tour of the city's past.
