Abstract

In The History of the Devil and the Idea of Evil, Paul Carus shows that the idea of Evil developed parallel to the idea of God. Like God, the Devil was symbolic of a real part of human experience. This classic sourcebook in demonology, a reprint of the work first published in 1900, assembles 350 images of the Devil in comparing the personification of evil that is common to many cultures.
