Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Reading Lewis' Satanism Today brings home the fascination with Satanic imagery in human culture, particularly Western culture, and points out its diversity and pervasiveness. Public libraries with an interest in the occult will find it a popular and useful addition to their reference collections . . . academic libraries may opt for adding it to either reference or circulation." - Against the Grain

Reseña del editor:

This authoritative reference work presents a full image of the Prince of Darkness as he appears throughout traditional theology, mythology, art and literature, and popular culture. * Nearly 300 entries ranging from the anticult movement to Zoroastrianism * A chronology of information on earlier manifestations of the Western occult tradition that provided the background for the creation of modern religious Satanism in the 1960s * 66 photos, illustrations, and drawings including depictions of satanic rituals and ingredients used for casting evil spells * Three appendixes including a Satanist survey conducted by the author in August 2000 on basic demographic data on contemporary Satanists
