Sectas satánicas, cacería de brujas, íncubos, satanismo filosófico, aquelarres, profecías y exorcismos. Las leyendas y mitos de Satanás, Lucifer, Belzebú. Una apasionante historia cultural del príncipe de las tinieblas y su huella en el arte, literatura, música, movimientos ocultistas, crímenes y conspiraciones. El diablo, el demonio, Satanás, Lucifer, Belzebú, Mefistófeles... Tiene muchos nombres, pero todos sabemos de quién se trata. Gabriel Andrade hace un recorrido por la historia cultural de este apasionante personaje, desde sus oscuros orígenes en las civilizaciones antiguas (Egipto, Israel, Persia, Grecia) hasta la reciente histeria colectiva en torno a los supuestos casos de abuso ritual satánico en EE. UU. durante la década de los ochenta del siglo XX, pasando por las tentaciones de Jesús en el desierto, las cacerías de brujas y El paraíso perdido de Milton, entre muchas otras manifestaciones culturales. Este título de la colección Breve Historia tiene alusiones tanto a la cultura pop contemporánea, como a la cultura clásica (tradicionalmente, los biógrafos del diablo suelen reseñar el desarrollo de esta figura hasta el siglo XIX, sin tener presente los acontecimientos de la música rock, y las investigaciones policiales sobre supuestos crímenes satánicos). Ante un tema que tradicionalmente ha estado reservado a eruditos, Breve historia de Satanás es lectura indispensable para todo aquel lector, creyente o escéptico, que quiera introducirse de forma amena en la historia del príncipe de las tinieblas.
