Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Asmodeus in New-York Whoever has read the Lame Devil, from Le Sage, has very likely wondered at the fancy of the novelist releasing a polite devil from his captivity in a vial, for the purpose of revealing to the world the mysteries of Spanish society. The poets of the eighteenth century yearned in song for the good old time when people amused themselves with fairy tales; and in our own century we are even more inclined to consider as a mere fancy of the mind the interference of genii, either good or bad, in human affairs. True, writers of olden times have more than once alluded to Asmodeus. In Tobit´s book, for instance, he is made to bear a not very enviable character, being charged with the murder, one after another, of Sarah´s seven husbands; and for that bloody performance, he was pointed out as the demon of divorce, or the evil genius of marriage.
