Description

In this modern adaptation of Paul Carsus' seminal work, "The History of the Devil," Arnold Issac takes readers on an illuminating journey through the evolution of the concept of evil from ancient civilizations to contemporary society. From the Mesopotamian myths of Tiamat and Bel-Merodach to the biblical narratives of Lucifer and Satan, Issac explores the multifaceted manifestations of malevolent forces throughout history. Drawing upon insights from Assyrian and Babylonian sources, as well as biblical texts and archaeological discoveries, this book offers a comprehensive examination of humanity's fascination with the diabolical. Issac delves into the cultural, religious, and philosophical influences that have shaped our understanding of evil, tracing its development across diverse cultures and belief systems. Through meticulous research and engaging storytelling, "The History of the Devil" sheds light on the enduring presence of evil in human consciousness and its role in shaping moral frameworks and societal norms. With contemporary relevance and scholarly rigor, this revised edition invites readers to reconsider their perceptions of good and evil and to confront the timeless question of the nature of evil in the world. Published by Revitalized Occult and Strange, an imprint of Bald and Bonkers Network LLC, this updated version of Carsus' classic work offers a fresh perspective on one of humanity's most enduring and enigmatic concepts. Whether you're a scholar of religion, a history enthusiast, or simply curious about the origins of evil, "The History of the Devil" is an essential addition to your library.
