Galdrabók
The ''Galdrabók'' (Icelandic ''Book of Magic'') is an Icelandic grimoire dated to ca. 1600.〔Matthías Viðar Sæmundsson 1992:10; Flowers 1989:29; Lindqvist 1921:11.〕 It is a small manuscript containing a collection of 47 spells.〔Lindqivst 1921:9; Matthías Viðar Sæmundsson 1992:11.〕 The grimoire was compiled by four different people, possibly starting in the late 16th century and going on until the mid-17th century. The first three scribes were Icelanders and the fourth was a Dane working from Icelandic material.〔Matthías Viðar Sæmundsson 1992:10; Flowers 1989:30.〕 The various spells consist of Latin and runic material as well as Icelandic magical staves, invocations to Christian entities, demons and the Norse gods as well as instructions for the use of herbs and magical items. Some of the spells are protective, intended against such problems as trouble with childbearing, headache and insomnia, previous incantations, pestilence, suffering and distress at sea. Others are intended to cause fear, kill animals, find thieves, put someone to sleep, cause flatulence or bewitch women.
The book was first published in 1921 by Natan Lindqvist in a diplomatic edition and with a Swedish translation. An English translation was published in 1989 by Stephen Flowers and a facsimile edition with detailed commentary by Matthías Viðar Sæmundsson in 1992.
