This collection of essays analyzes global depictions of the devil
from theological, Biblical, and literary perspectives, spanning the
late Middle Ages to the 21st century. The chapters explore demonic
representations in the literary works of Johann Wolfgang von
Goethe, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Dante Alighieri, Charles Baudelaire,
John Milton, H.P. Lovecraft, and Cormac McCarthy, among others. The
text examines other media such as the operas Orfeo and Erminia sul
Giordano and the television shows Breaking Bad, The Sopranos, and
Mad Men. The Hermeneutics of Hell, featuring an international set
of established and up-and-coming authors, masterfully examines the
evolution of the devil from the Biblical accounts of the Middle
Ages to the individualized presence of the modern world.
