br. Nei saggi di Germain Bazin, Paul Zumthor e Claude-Edmonde Magny, raccolti in questo volume assieme a quello, fondamentale, di Henri-lrénée Murrou, si dipanano le tramo che avvolgono la modernità nella fascinazione del Male come principio alternative a Dio, suo Avversario seducente e romantico insieme. Da esso promanano energie represse e conculcate dalla fede cieca in un Dio che nei confronti della realtà dolorosa non sa proporre che la pratica di un Bene incapace e per molti versi inefficace: certamente non in grado di giustificare e salvare il male del mondo. Seguire Bazin nella descrizione della trasformazione che l'immagine di Satana subisce nell'arte è un modo di anticipare ciò che avviene in letteratura secondo Zumthor e Magny in due saggi di finezza e sensibilità assolute. Il tentativo di rintracciare la presenza del demonio nel Male incarnato e vivente nella Storia degli uomini, e non solo nelle loro convinzioni, attraverso tutti gli strumenti delle rinnovate scienze sociali e un discreto apparato di studi comparativistici e storici, finisce per trovarsi tra le mani qualcosa di più c, torse, di non previsto. Si tratta, infatti, della descrizione del demonismo moderno, dei suoi essenziali tratti culturali e della sua sostanziale pervasività nel inondo precedente le due guerre mondiali, a partire almeno dal Romanticismo.
In 8° (16x9 cm); due tomi in un volume: (8), 294, (2) pp. e 239, (1) pp. Legatura coeva in piena pergamena con titolo impresso in oro al dorso. Qualche traccia di polvere. All'interno esemplare in ottime condizioni di conservazione. Seconda edizione (anche se Barbier cita l'esistenza di un'edizione del 1731 ma trattatasi probabilmente di un errore bibliografico), notevolmente corretta ed aumentata (praticamente raddoppiata) rispetto all'edizione del 1739, di questo interessante e curioso studio della scrittrice e filosofa ginevrina, Marie Huber (Geneve, 4 marzo 1695 – Lyon, 13 giugno 1753) che fu anche editrice e rarissimo per quell'epoca, scrisse anche di argomenti teologici. Sostenitrice dell'universalismo e considerata anche una neoplatonica, fu accusata da diversi personaggi dell'epoca di “deismo”. Le sue lettere, qui presentate, ebbero numerosi estimatori alla sua epoca come ad esempio il celebre poeta lirico scozzese, Robert Burns o ad esempio, Rousseau che ne cita alcuni passaggi nel libro IV dell'Emile. La Huber in questa serie di sue riflessioni analizza il rapporto fra Dio e l'eternità, le età delle anime e la figura del diavolo attraverso quello che scrissero diversi pensatori attraverso i secoli. La Huber arrivò a concludere che se Dio è onnipotente e perciò anche più potente del diavolo, quest'ultimo è condannato, prima o poi, a cessare d'esistere. A good copy. Rif. Bibl.: Barbier, IV, 618 cita l edizione del 1733 e afferma di non aver mai trovato la prima del 1731; Caillet.

ril. «Il demonio ha una forza immensa. Anche se oggi si cerca di cancellare perfino il ricordo di questo potere. Papa Francesco, invece, ha cominciato fin dai primi discorsi a parlare anche del demonio: e pure Gesù ha iniziato la sua missione pubblica lottando contro il Maligno. L'ha annientato, l'ha superato». Il fenomeno delle possessioni diaboliche non riguarda solo i singoli, ma anche le società e i popoli. Il piano dell'Islam fondamentalista sarebbero ispirati da Satana e così le barbare uccisioni dei terroristi; ma sono diabolici anche i femminicidi, gli abusi sessuali sui minori, lo sfruttamento della prostituzione, la riduzione in schiavitù di tanti poveri costretti a lavorare per paghe miserabili, i giochi finanziari dei potenti senza scrupoli. Padre Amorth lancia un definitivo e drammatico SOS per denunciare la "modernità posseduta dal Maligno" in cui, mai come oggi, occorre ripetere l'invocazione della preghiera del Padre Nostro: «Liberaci dal male».
br. «Tutti i giorni, quando ci si sveglia, un pensiero a Dio e un pensiero alla Madonna che ci aiutino nella lotta contro Satana, perché è una lotta che incomincia quando ci svegliamo e si protrae fino a quando ci addormentiamo. Che ci siano di aiuto in questa lotta. Che mantengano quindi vivo in noi il pensiero che Satana ci tenta dalla nascita alla morte. Dal mattino alla sera». Padre Amorth «Non tutti sanno che, prima di diventare esorcista, don Amorth aveva scritto sei libri sulla Madonna. E che per parecchi anni è stato direttore di una rivista mariana stampata dai paolini in Roma, intitolata Madre di Dio.» (Slawomir H. Sznurkowski)

Autori: Arturo Graf. Curatori: C. Perrone.
La storia del “Diavolo” tra documenti, racconti e credenze- Arturo Graf (Atene, 1848 – Torino, 1913) compose Il Diavolo nel 1889 definendo la sua fatica come un “libro popolare, che si potesse leggere senza fatica, ma forse non senza qualche gusto, da chiunque non faccia professione d’erudito”, intendendo con tale termine un pubblico di lettori sì colti ma che non fossero storici, eruditi di professione. Attraverso le parole e gli scritti dei Padri della Chiesa, ma anche quelle delle cronache, dei racconti, dei proverbi e delle credenze popolari, l’autore compone un libro sempre denso ed avvincente. Un discorso sempre elegante e ricercato, ma mai complicato, sulla storia del e sul demonio, e sull’eterno dualismo tra bene e male. Autori: Arturo Graf.

Very Good Turkish, Ottoman (1500-1928) Paperback. 8vo. (18 x 12 cm). In Ottoman script (Old Turkish with Arabic letters). 80 p. Probably taken from a volume. Minor wear on spine. Light fading on pages. Otherwise a very good copy. This interesting, very rare, and also pseudo-historical first book penned specifically on the Yezîdî people by an Ottoman statesman, initially prepared as a report and then published in 1912, before WWI in Ottoman Cairo. One of only three written Eastern sources about this interesting community that has been subject to extremely controversial approaches throughout history. The first is the travel corpus of Evliya Çelebi, the second is 'Abede-i Iblis', and the third is "Al-Yazidiyya Kadîmen wa Hadisen", which was published in Arabic in Beirut in 1934. Yezîdîs, a member of a Kurdish religious minority found primarily in northern Iraq, southeastern Turkey, northern Syria, the Caucasus region and parts of Iran. The Yezîdî religion includes elements of ancient Iranian religions as well as elements of Judaism, Nestorian Christianity and Islam. Although scattered and probably numbering merely between 200,000 and 1,000,000, the Yezîdîs have a well-organized society, with a chief sheikh as the supreme religious head and an emir, or prince, as the secular head. The origins of the Yezîdî faith can be traced to areas of the Kurdish mountains of northern Iraq where pockets of devotion to the fallen Umayyad dynasty persisted long after the death of the last Umayyad caliph, the half-Kurdish Marwan II, in 750. Some descendants of the dynasty settled in the area, further encouraging the development of mystical traditions in which the Umayyad lineage was prominently figured. In the early 12th century, Sheikh 'Adî ibn Musâfir, a Sufi and a descendant of the Umayyads, settled in Lâlish, north of Mosul, and began a Sufi order known as the Adwiyyah. Although his own teachings were strictly orthodox, the beliefs of his followers soon blended with local traditions. A distinct Yezîdî community living in the environs of Mosul appears in historical sources as early as the middle of the 12th century. This book includes descriptions of the Yezîdîs , albeit all the prejudices within it, on their geography, origins, mythology, religions, cosmogony, etc. The book has a long chapter on Yezîdîs' chief divine Malak ?âûs [or, Tavus] ("Peacock Angel"). Malak Taus has often been identified by outsiders with the Judeo-Christian figure of Satan, causing the Yezîdîs to be inaccurately described as "Devil worshippers", as seen in this pseudo-historical book as well.
