'''Ars Arcanum''' (possibly latinLatin for "SecretThe Arts" or "BookArt of MysteriesMagic") is a glossary or appendix section at the end of the books that are part of the [[Cosmere]] universe. The information is presented from an in-universe perspective {{ref|?|632|4|In who's voice is the Ars Acranum written?}}
 
For example, the books in the [[Mistborn trilogy]] each have an Ars Arcanum with the table of [[Metallic Arts]], describing what each of the [[Allomantic]] metals does. The Ars Arcanum in ''[[The Way of Kings]]'' tabulates the gemstones used in [[Vorinism]] and [[SoulcastingSurgebinding]].
 
All Ars Arcanum content is written by the same person{{ref|?|632|4}}, (not Hoid<ref name=hoidnotaaauthor>[http://www.reddit.com/r/Stormlight_Archive/comments/20wsk4/roshar_shattering_answers_from_the_dayton_qa_full/cg7jhha Who wrote the dust jacket]</ref>) who is a member of the 17th Shard.{{ref|?|632|4}}
