Description

Description from Harvard LibraryCloud (opens in a new tab)

The perception of demons in late antiquity was determined by the cultural and religious contexts. Therefore the authors of this volume take into consideration a wide variety of texts stemming from different religious milieus ranging from spells, apocalypses, martyrdom literature to hagiography and focus specifically on literary aspects of the transformation of the demonic in this period of transition. — -
