| Summary | "Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring" by Professor Hoffmann is a comprehensive guide to the craft of magic and conjuring, written in the late 19th century. This work encompasses a wide range of techniques and principles related to sleight-of-hand and magic tricks, aiming to educate beginners and enthusiasts alike in the art of performance. It covers various tricks involving cards, coins, and numerous other objects, providing detailed instructions and insights into the magician's craft. At the start of the treatise, Hoffmann presents a reflective overview of the history and importance of magic, noting the scarcity of quality literature on the subject. He emphasizes the need for practice and persistence, assuring aspiring conjurers that they can learn to perform impressive illusions with dedication. The introductory chapter lays the groundwork for practical learning, discussing essential tools such as the magic wand and magician's table, while encouraging students to master foundational skills before attempting more complex acts. The opening thus establishes a balance between accessible guidance and the encouragement of personal growth in the magical arts. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
