Possession, Demoniacal and Other Among Primitive Races, in Antiquity, the Middle Ages, and Modern Times

Descripción

This book is nothing less than a survey of the history of Possession from the most ancient times to the present day in all countries of the inhabited globe, together with an analysis of its true nature and a discussion of its relationship to other phenomena, such as hysteria and the manifestations of spiritualism. The subject treated is a most fascinating one, not only to the general reader, but also to the student of psychology, ethnology and medicine. It would be difficult to see the human race in a more curious or fantastic light than that cast by these accounts of Possession. THe book abounds, moreover, in suggestions for further research. Large 8vo. 400 pp. including index. Blue cloth covered boards stamped in black. N° de ref. del artículo 1122
