Demons, the devil, and fallen angels / Marie D. Jones and Larry Flaxman.

Jones, Marie D., 1961- (author.). Flaxman, Larry, (author.).

Summary:

The devil goes by many names, and his tribe is legion. Exploring over two dozen religious traditions, myths, folkloric and spiritual traditions, the world of the supernatural, and the demons, the Devil, and fallen angels in today's pop culture, Demons, the Devil, and Fallen Angels is a comprehensive resource of the many faces of the devil, his minions, ominous deities, and the darker side of nature and ourselves. From ancient demon worship to modern Satanism, the bloody era of the Inquisitions and later witch burnings to the Satanic Panic of the late-twentieth century, and secret occult societies to Hitler's involvement with demonology, this look at demons and their 10,000-year history has 120 photographs, drawings, and illustrations to bring the portraits of over 200 demons and fallen angels to shivering life. A bibliography and index are also included. It is a comprehensive, clear, and objective look at a subject that fills most people with fear and dread.
