Cover of Daniel Defoe: History of the Devil (ePUB)

This fascinating volume from the author of such influential novels as Robinson Crusoe and Moll Flanders offers an analytical take on the figure of Satan. Although Defoe offers a comprehensive history of the symbolic and literary significance of the devil, he also believes that the devil plays an active and direct role in determining the course of world events, which he outlines in great detail. All in all, it’s a must-read for those interested in theology and the development of the Christian worldview.
