Winds of Magic, First Read Review (in depth later)
Danke... Hab zwar mit Morgenwelt bsher nicht die allerbesten Erfahrungen gemacht, aber einen Versuch isses wert. 
I just picked it up and I am looking through the good stuff right now.
Excellent work by the looks alone.

No rules for it but has some since background information about High magic, dark magic, wood elf magic, dwarf rune magic and a bunch of other types.
Including a few bits of info about Arabyan and Cathayan magic (and thus some fluff on those lands). Also, Heinrich Kemmler 
Is this new background or something reused from previous editions, only if its of use for developing stuff for my 2nd edition game I might be interested.

The whole chapter on foreign and mostly non-Teclisian magic (I love the term, by the way) is essentially new and written in character by an elder Light Magister. It references known lores, obviously, but is also a good overview of how the Colleges look at elven, Bretonnian, Kislevite and so on, magic users. Given that rumors about the new Dwarf box set already circulate, your best bet for an in-depth treatment of elven/dwarven magic is probably to wait for the release of an appropriate expansion. Same as with priests and holy magic, basically.
As for Cathay/Arabia, I don't remember seeing any canon information for them at all, even in first edition. Official fluff about their magics (or anything for that matter), even though it's just a paragraph or two, made my day.
