Description
Discover the fascinating history of Satanism and learn why many modern Satanists advocate for free thought, personal liberty, and nonconformity. In reality, modern Satanism is nontheistic and rooted in the symbolic use of the Devil as a powerful metaphor for knowledge, rational inquiry, and social justice. This accessible guide explores the cultural history of Satan across centuries, showing how this figure evolved from religious adversary to icon of resistance and rebellion. La Carmina delves into the biblical origins of Satan, his symbols, names, and interpretations across eras, as well as his use as a scapegoat from medieval Europe to the 1980s Satanic Panic. The Little Book of Satanism covers key philosophies and practices of modern Satanist groups, including The Church of Satan, The Satanic Bible, and The Satanic Temple, and examines the Devil's influence on pop culture, including art, literature, music, and film.
