This collection of texts is meant as a broad overview of demonology from a variety of different backgrounds- different religions and from different ages- supplemented by a bibliography for further reading, and an appendix containing bits of additional works of note on the subject material, plus an expansive preface explaining the backdrop of each entry.This book seeks to consider the nature of the demon, its existence or nonexistence, and the nature of witchcraft and the devil, from these multiple viewpoints.From the protestant "Demonology" of King James I, to Sinistraris observably catholic "Demoniality" and from secular to spiritualist works spanning multiple centuries, this collection of demonological lore is meant for serious aficionados of the subject.419 pages.
