Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supernatural phenomena and causalities played an important role in medieval society. Religious practice was relying upon a set of cult images and the sacral status of these depictions of divine or supernatural persons became the object of heated debates and provoked iconoclastic reactions.The miraculous intervention of saints or other divine agents, the wondrous realities beyond understanding, or the manifestations of magic attributed to diabolic forces, were contained by a variety of discourses, described and discussed in religion, philosophy, chronicles, literature and fiction, and also in a large number of pictures and material objects. The nine essays in this collection discusses how supernatural phenomena – especially angels and devils – found visual manifestation in Latin and Eastern Christianity as well as Judaism in the late medieval, early renaissance period.

Book excerpt: This collection of interconnected essays relates the Undead in literature, art and other media to questions concerning gender, race, genre, technology, consumption and social change. A coherent narrative follows Enlightenment studies of the vampire's origins in folklore and folk panics, the sources of vampire fiction, through Romantic incarnations in Byron and Polidori to Le Fanu's Carmilla. Further essays discuss the Undead in the context of Dracula, fin-de-siècle decadence, Nazi Germany and early cinematic treatments. The rise of the sympathetic vampire is charted from Coppola's film, Bram Stoker's Dracula, to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Twilight. More recent manifestations in novels, TV, Goth subculture, young adult fiction and cinema are dealt with in discussions of True Blood, The Vampire Diaries and much more. Featuring distinguished contributors, including a prominent novelist, and aimed at interdisciplinary scholars or postgraduate students, it will also appeal to aficionados of creative writing and Undead enthusiasts. www.opengravesopenminds.com

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enter my world where demons and angels cross borders and change identities, where tricks can happen from either side, and where angels can be mean and devils can be nice. It is a place where love and hate exist side by side. Enter and make your choices. Each of us during our lifetime encounters angels and demons. There is little to distinguish the two because demons and/or angels can be in the form of adult or child, man or woman, a healthy person or a disabled one. It is their actions that finally show which side of the spiritual battle theyre on. During a humans lifetime he/she makes choices which determine which group he is allied with. Should the choices be vile or consistently bad then that individual might be classified a demon. If he or she makes more good choices he might be considered an angel. In the eyes of other humans what kind of actions would make a person an angel or a demon? Does it take a preponderance of actions to decide the case? If a person makes a terrible mistake is she a demon for the rest of her life or is it merely a learning experience? If one great action is done is the performer then considered an angel? Perhaps it is not the action but the motive behind the action that determines whether a person is considered a devil or angel. In the collection, Demons or Angels, choices are being made. The reader should decide whether each character is good or evil at the conclusion of the story. Is there enough evidence to convict him or her of being a demon or angel? Behind each character the motives to do good or evil exists. Should his/her slate be wiped clean if she/he does an opposing action of equal value?

Book excerpt: This sumptuously illustrated volume analyzes artists' representations of angels and demons and heaven and hell from the Judeo-Christian tradition and describes how these artistic portrayals evolved over time. As with other books in the Guide to Imagery series, the goal of this volume is to help contemporary art enthusiasts decode the symbolic meanings in the great masterworks of Western Art. The first chapter traces the development of images of the Creation and the Afterworld from descriptions of them in the Scriptures through their evolution in later literary and philosophical works. The following two chapters examine artists' depictions of the two paths that humans may take, the path of evil or the path of salvation, and the punishments or rewards found on each. A chapter on the Judgment Day and the end of the world explores portrayals of the mysterious worlds between life and death and in the afterlife. Finally, the author looks at images of angelic and demonic beings themselves and how they came to be portrayed with the physical attributes--wings, halos, horns, and cloven hooves--with which we are now so familiar. Thoroughly researched by and expert in the field of iconography, Angels and Demons in Art will delight readers with an interest in art or religious symbolism.
