br. Il titolo di questa pubblicazione ha un suo significato del tutto particolare e sottintende un filo conduttore che conduce il lettore attraverso il misterioso mondo dell'occulto e delle Potenze delle Tenebre, mondo che attira, oggi più che mai, l'attenzione dei lettori e studiosi di ogni ceto sociale e fascia culturale. Lo Spiritismo ha la sua capacità attrattiva per il fatto che promette la possibilità di contattare e dialogare con i defunti o con altre entità sovrumane. Il Satanismo attira l'attenzione per i suoi aspetti occulti e per i suoi riti trasgressivi La Demonologia ha il suo polo di attrazione per gli aspetti terrificanti della possessione diabolica. I suddetti tre argomenti sono stati più volte affrontati dai mass media in modo superficiale e poco esaustivo. L'autore è un sacerdote esorcista domenicano da anni impegnato in questo campo.
Parto della mente o forza cosmica, la figura del demone ha esercitato un'azione reale nella storia, indirizzando il pensiero e i comportamenti umani, come sanno le fiamme divoratrici di streghe. Di qui l'interesse cruciale del saggio di Daniele Baroni, che dalla Grecia al Rinascimento, dai filosofi pagani all'ebraismo e al cristianesimo ci spiega come il demone sia diventato Satana, illustrandocene le caratteristiche. La demonologia, in questo senso, diventa una fenomenologia del Male, che esiste - quello sì anche nel nostro mondo disincantato. Autori: Daniele Baroni.
brossura Il diavolo esiste, è tra noi.
