  • The Grand Albert is a grimoire that has often been attributed to Albertus Magnus. Begun perhaps around 1245, it received its definitive form in Latin around 1493, a French translation in 1500, and its most expansive and well-known French edition in 1703. Its original Latin title, Liber Secretorum Alberti Magni virtutibus herbarum, lapidum and animalium quorumdam, translates to English as "the book of secrets of Albert the Great on the virtues of herbs, stones and certain animals". It is also known under the names of The Secrets of Albert, Secreta Alberti, and Experimenta Alberti. Bibliographer Jacques-Charles Brunet described it as being "among popular books, the most famous and perhaps the most absurd.... It is only natural that the Book of Secrets was attributed to Albert the Great, because this doctor, very learned for his time, had, among his contemporaries, the reputation of being a sorcerer." This book is often accompanied by another, similar text, the Petit Albert, which has been called its "little brother". Its title is Alberti Parvi Lucii Libellus Mirabilibus Naturae Arcanis, or the "Book of the marvelous secrets of Little Albert". There are recipes taken from Gerolamo Cardano (De subtilitate, 1552) and Giambattista Della Porta (Magia Naturalis, 1598), and there is an original chapter on talismans. (en)
  • Le Grand Albert est un grimoire, un célèbre livre de magie populaire, en latin, attribué à tort au théologien et philosophe Albert le Grand (vers 1200-1280). Commencé peut-être vers 1245, il reçoit sa forme définitive vers 1580, et son édition française classique date de 1703. Son titre entier est : Liber Secretorum Alberti Magni de virtutibus herbarum, lapidum et animalium quorumdam : « Livre des secrets d'Albert le Grand sur les vertus des herbes, des pierres et de certains animaux ». Il est aussi connu sous les noms de Les Secrets d’Albert, Les Secrets d’Albert, Secreta Alberti, Experimenta Alberti et Les Secrets d’Albert, Secreta Alberti, Experimenta Alberti. Suivant le bibliographe Jean-Charles Brunet : « C'est parmi les livres populaires, le plus célèbre et peut-être le plus absurde... Il est tout naturel que le Livre des Secrets ait été attribué à Albert le Grand, car ce docteur, très savant pour son époque, eut, parmi ses contemporains, la réputation d'être sorcier. » Ce livre est souvent accompagné d'un autre, qui lui est similaire : le Petit Albert, paru en 1668. Son titre est Alberti Parvi Lucii Libellus Mirabilibus Naturae Arcanis, « Livre des merveilleux secrets du Petit Albert ». On y trouve des recettes prises chez Jérôme Cardan (De Subtilitate, 1552), G. Della Porta (Magia naturalis, 1598), un chapitre original sur les talismans. (fr)
  • Grand Albert ou Les Admirables secrets d'Albert le Grand (em português: Os admiráveis segredos de Alberto, o Grande ou As Maravilhas de Alberto O Grande) é um grimório, um célebre manual de bruxaria que, juntamente com "Secrets merveilleux de la magie naturelle e cabalistique du Petit Albert" são referência em matéria de manuais de bruxaria. A Alberto Magno, monge dominicano nascido na Suábia por volta de 1200, atribui-se a autoria desses dois tratados com receitas de magia prática baseadas nas virtudes das plantas, das pedras preciosas ou dos animais. Contém ainda um tratado de fisionomia. (pt)
