Throughout the book, there are short entries on individual demons, but \u003ci\u003ePandemonium\u003c\/i\u003e is more than just a visual encyclopedia. It also focuses on the influence of figures like Beelzebub, Azazel, Lilith, and Moloch on Western religion, literature, and art. Ranging from the earliest scriptural references to demons through the contemporary era, when the devils took on a subtler form, \u003ci\u003ePandemonium \u003c\/i\u003efunctions as a compendium of Lucifer's subjects, from Dante's \u003ci\u003eThe Divine Comedy \u003c\/i\u003eto John Milton's \u003ci\u003eParadise Lost\u003c\/i\u003e, and all the points in between. Containing rarely seen illustrations of very old treatises on demonology, as well as more well-known works by the great masters of Western painting, this book celebrates the art of hell like never before.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEd Simon\u003c\/b\u003e is a staff writer for \u003ci\u003eThe Millions, \u003c\/i\u003ewhich the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ehas called \"the indispensable literary site.\" A widely published and prolific freelance writer who holds a PhD in English from Lehigh University, his work has appeared in most major American literary and journalistic sites.
