Yesterday marked the start of the Autumn equinox, but we were busy celebrating #MedievalMonday.

We hope this beautiful photo of the Radcliffe Camera, framed by the autumnal leaves of Exeter College gardens makes it up to you.
A photograph taken from Exeter College gardens, looking up the wall of the garden and the Radcliffe Camera peeking from beyond. Orange and brown leaves from a tree above the photographer frame the image, and bushes in front have red, orange and yellow leaves giving the whole scene a distinctly autumnal feel.

Our medieval curator Alison Ray introduces Rawlinson Bodleian Library MS. Rawl. D. 252...a 15th Century necromancer's journal.

This manuscript contains spells written in Latin and Middle English, and would have served as a reference for a professional sorcerer.
