I can't vouch for the scholarliness of the editions used, but if your 
ears perk up when you hear the names Johannes Trithemius, Heinrich 
Agrippa, Athanasius Kircher, Giordano Bruno, and John Dee, check out

This site is a member of the "Enochian WebRing" so you know it has to be 
good! Also includes "Reginald Scot's collection of magical texts: A fine 
example of Elizabethan English." Doesn't have anything about Merlin (I 
mean John Dee's) crystal ball on the homepage, but I'm sure it's in here 
somewhere. And there are pictures, too: angelic sigils, planetary 
sigils, several magic circles, and Dee's holy table:
