VerkdetaljerThe Dictionary of Demons: Names of the Damned av Michelle Belanger ![]() Ingen/inga Det finns inga diskussioner på LibraryThing om den här boken. I'd love to believe that the main body of this work is accurate but being a scholar who has studied Hebrew, I've noticed that the introduction to this work is so unbelievably wrought with misinformation that I take the entire text with a grain of salt and forewarn you to do the same.

The Dictionary of Demonsstarts with a simple premise: names have power. In medieval and Renaissance Europe, it was believed that speaking a demon's true name could summon it, compel it, and bind it. Occult scholar Michelle Belanger has compiled the most complete compendium of demonic names available anywhere, using both notorious and obscure sources from the Western grimoiric tradition. Presented alphabetically from Aariel to Zynextyur, more than 1,500 demons are introduced, explored, and cross-referenced by theme and elemental or planetary correspondence. This meticulously researched reference work features fascinating short articles on demonology and a wealth of woodcuts, etchings, and paintings depicting demons through the ages.
