Several manuscripts of the ''Grimoire of Armadel'' exist in the archives of the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, and it could be argued that the grimoire represents a unique French branch of the traditional ''[[Key of Solomon]]''. | Several manuscripts of the ''Grimoire of Armadel'' exist in the archives of the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal, and it could be argued that the grimoire represents a unique French branch of the traditional ''[[Key of Solomon]]''. | ||
[[Samuel L. MacGregor Mathers]] translated one of the ''Armadel'' manuscripts into English in July 1897. However, because of the financial disaster following the publication of his previous grimoire, ''The Book of Abramelin'', he declined to offer his translation to any publishers. His version of the grimoire was not published until 1980, long after his death. | [[Samuel L. MacGregor Mathers]] translated one of the ''Armadel'' manuscripts into English in July 1897.
