Hard Cover. Condition: Like New. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. The Devil: a Biography- "The Devil's deepest wile is to persuade us that he does not exist".--Charles Baudelaire. But now, Peter Stanford's highly readable survey brings the Devil to the forefront as he focuses on the Church, literature, folklore, psychology and history. The result is a lively account of our age-old response to the challenge of why evil and human suffering exist. …

hardcover. first American edition. 8vo 315pp. from front flap: "The Devil's deepest wile," wrote Charles Baudelaire, "is to persuade us that he does not exist." and for quite some time, the Devil succeeded. Pensioned off as irrelevant, the victim of our Age of Reason, he lingered on only in the margins: in the sermons of evangelicals, in the fears of the superstitious. For the rest, Science would answer the problem of Evil (for which the Devil had been invented). But Science has failed us. Evil--disturbing, inexplicable, deeply rooted--persists. Inching toward the millennium, we speak of the Devil once again: in tabloid accounts of cults, in popular novels, and even in scholarly theological works. We are back where we began 2,000 years ago: going to the Devil. Now, in this informed, lucid, and very readable biography, Peter Stanford introduces us to this figure of fascination." #02308.
