L16 Q14

Q12

This is the original copy, a simple leather-bound codex solitus octonarius, authored by Narenius Flambonis Kyprisi in 1204.

 

Vim
L10
Q10

This useful summa explores the ways that spells from many diverse magical traditions within Ordo Hermei, and a few non-Hermetic traditions are affected by the Art of Vim.  It is especially interesting with regard to Muto, Perdo, and Rego meta-magical effects.
Although not an exemplary summa, this work is especially interesting due to the other fascinating information contained within it.  This work may also be studied as a tractatus on Magic Lore (Q9) after it has been studied as a summa.
This volume, a brass-bound and latched codex solitus octonarius, incorporates mystical resonance materials in small cachets beneath the beaten brass covers.

From the writings of Alaster Flambonis, 'Mastering Arc of Fiery Ribbons' expounds upon the numerous ways to tweak this spell to burn, incinerate, char, boil, flame, blast, and otherwise slay your opponents. Its emphasis is on penetration, fast casting, and multi-casting, although its insights could lend themselves to other specializations. A textus laboris for a Potent version of this spell is included in this volume. It requires the use of a ruby, which adds +6 to the Casting Total, and requires a Hermetic Theory of 6 or more to learn.
This copy was acquired by Sebastianus Rutilius in 1221 AD. It is a simple leather-bound codex solitus octonarius, but does incorporate glosses carried over from previous copies.

 

Permanare   Penetration

Superandum Formas Platonium   Creo
L18 Q14

Dalmatius sought to author both a Fundamen and Columna Creare. However, only the primer, Provocandum Formas Platonium (Creo L10 Q20), has been generally recognized. His more detailed work, although lacking the status of a Columna, is erudite and well written.

Ventus Procellaque   Auram
L19 Q15

Prooemium Corporis   Corpus
L10 Q20

The Foedus has two copies: a codex largus octonarius has been glossed by Trava Jerbitonis, and a codex solitus crassus that incorporates Trava's glosses into the text.

 

Auram
L12
Q20

A remarkably clear and interesting introduction to the Art of Auram, authored by one of the known masters of the Form, Archimagus Pietro Flambonis.  Although Pietro founded the Jovian Lineage of lightning-wielders in Domus Flambonis, this book is surprisingly free of emphasis on lightning. Rather, the tome is a clear and well-constructed introduction to the Art of Auram. The breadth of coverage is impressive. This could become another Fundamen, given sufficient time and number of copies - Pietro has not required Ius Iurandum Vaccae Vitulaeque for this summa, but bids anyone to copy and share it freely.
This copy, a codex solitus crassus, was presented as a gift to Verticius Tytali after his Provocatio; he in turn donated it to Porta Germaniae.

Codex Bonisagi 1186 AD          

This collection of textus laboris and tractatus is legendary among magi Bonisagi, and is even well-known among other magi.  Although most Codices Bonisagi contain no discoveries, this Codex is notable for containing material related to four separate discoveries by four different Bonisagi; all formally published within the same seven-year period.
Porta Germaniae's copy is contained in four oak-bound codices soliti graciles, each dedicated to one of the four discoveries.

Horace Bonisagi describes in a tractatus (Q9) on Hermetic Theory and an accompanying sample textum laboris, how to enchant a special type of lesser enchantment that requires no vis.  His devices, called facultas aurae, will only function in an appropriate mystical Aura of sufficient strength.

Aelfred Bonisagi discovered a new mastery ability that aids a magus in maintaining concentration on the applicable spell.  He has included a sample original spell, Dictata Silentii Irruptus, along with a tractatus (Q10) describing the new mastery ability for this spell.

Khalil Bonisagi writes of a new mastery ability that augments the Finesse of the casting magus.  He has included a sample original spell, Barathrum Telluris Voracis, and a tractatus (Q10) on the mastery of that spell, which educates the reader on how to incorporate this new mastery talent.

Placida Bonisagi has developed a way to teach non-Mercurian magi how to cast rituals in a Mercurian fashion, which can reduce the vis cost of the associated ritual.  She includes a sample original spell, Orbis Salutaris Galenis, which is of great value in its own right, along with a tractatus (Q9) describing how to use the new mastery ability.
