This volume presents a new translation and analysis of the Hay manuscripts: an assemblage of seven leather sheets bearing Coptic 'magical' texts produced in the 8th/9th century AD. They contain a handbook, known as the 'Hay cookbook', and other formularies for protection, healing and cursing, some with an especially aggressive sexual character.
A ground-breaking publication providing new insights into Katsushika Hokusai, one of the world's most celebrated artists with authors from the UK, Europe, Japan and USA engaging with the oeuvre of late Hokusai from a variety of perspectives, both intrinsic and extrinsic to his life and works.
