Pandemonium

Pandemonium: An Illustrated History of Demonology presents for the first time Satan's family tree, providing a history and analysis of his fellow fallen angels from Asmodeus to Ziminiar. Throughout, there are short entries on individual demons, but Pandemonium is more than just a visual encyclopedia. It also focuses on the influence of figures like Beelzebub, Azazel, Lilith, and Moloch on Western religion, literature, and art.

Ranging from the earliest scriptural references to demons in the New Testament through the Enlightenment and Romantic eras, when our devils took on a subtler form, Pandemonium functions as a compendium of Lucifer's subjects from Dante's The Divine Comedy to John Milton's Paradise Lost, and all points in between.

Containing rarely seen illustrations of very old treatises on demonology as well as more well-known works by the great masters of Western painting, this book celebrates the art of hell like never before!
