Complete and unabridged, with 56 full-page plates by Odilon Redon, Francisco Goya and Edvard Munch. The devil in nineteen guises: bargaining, bored, litigious, in love, outwitted by a peasant, defeated by a woman's tongue. The anthology runs from Luther's day to Kipling and gathers Balzac, Gogol, Hawthorne and Marlowe's Faustus alongside forgotten Sunday-magazine fiends. It is a survey of what each century thought evil looked like when it sat down to talk. Fifty-six plates spanning 1565 to 1923, from Bruegel and Goya to Odilon Redon, trace the devil's visual career across four centuries of harvest fields, bullrings and cathedral shadows.
