Description
The Codex Gigas – The First Ever Collector edition
Behold the Codex Gigas, also known as The Devil’s Bible, reborn for the first time in modern history. This Collector’s First Edition marks the inaugural translation, printing, and full-scale reproduction of the legendary medieval manuscript — an artifact shrouded in mystery, myth, and awe for nearly eight centuries.
Meticulously crafted to match the exact dimensions, At 92 cm (36 in) long, 50 cm (20 in) wide and 22 cm (8.7 in) and visual essence of the original thirteenth-century tome, this edition stands over three feet tall and weighs more than 70 kilograms, faithfully echoing the colossal presence of its source. Every page has been scanned and restored from the original vellum folios, preserving the intricate calligraphy, illuminated initials, and vivid illustrations — including the infamous full-page portrait of the Devil himself.
Bound in aged leather, reinforced with hand-forged brass fittings, and printed on archival-grade parchment paper, each copy is individually numbered and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity. Scholars and artisans have painstakingly replicated the book’s distinctive imperfections — the ink’s fading, the texture of the vellum, and the subtle wear of centuries — achieving an uncanny resemblance to the original artifact housed in the National Library of Sweden.
For the first time, readers and collectors can explore the entire Latin text with a side-by-side English translation, featuring extensive annotations and essays by leading historians, linguists, and theologians. The volume also includes a scholarly introduction detailing the legend of the monk who, as legend says, made a pact with the Devil to complete the manuscript in one night.
This Limited Collector’s Edition is more than a reproduction — it is an act of resurrection. Only 333 copies will ever be produced, each serving as a bridge between history, myth, and the forbidden knowledge that has long haunted the world’s most mysterious book.
“The Codex Gigas: A mirror of faith and fear, of human devotion and infernal temptation — now reborn in your hands.”
