The Wizard of Meudon (Le Sorcier de Meudon) was written by Eliphas Levi as two short novels in 1847, then reissued in its final form in 1862. It is the story of the true wizard of Meudon, Francois Rabelais. Going by the pseudonym Alcofribas Nasier, an anagram for his true name, he went on to write the Five Books of Pantugruel & Gargantua. The Wizard of Meudon is the tale of how it all came to be, along with glimmers to the history of Theleme.
