A lavishly illustrated guide to how humanity has imagined heavens, hells and the afterlife
Değerlendirmeler
'A funny and phantasmagoric tour of humanity's attempts to survey the afterlife, both high and low. If you'd like to know which author wrote about the bordellos in hell, where to find a tree that grows devil heads, or what angels' houses might smell like, this book is for you.' -- Bess Lovejoy, author of Rest in Pieces: The Curious Fates of Famous Corpses 'Stunning and utterly fascinating' -- Dan Schreiber - No Such Thing As A Fish 'A sumptuous collection of artworks, from all over the world, and through the ages, depicting visions of heaven and hell.' * Booktime magazine * 'In this world of mental exploration, Edward Brooke-Hitching is a delightful and indispensable guide...For all their horrors, Brooke-Hitching's hells are ultimately comforting because their solid boundaries keep the dead away from us.' -- Diane Burkiss * Literary Review * 'The Devil's Atlas entertainingly gathers the hells and underworlds of numerous ages and schools of belief, together with limbos and purgatories, and - at last - the heavens, paradises and utopias. Written in sparkling scholarship studded with glittering trivia, abundant education and monstrous images.' * Strong Words * 'The perfect shelf-mate to The Madman's Library, brimming with vibrant imagery - from the Book of the Dead to Islamic manuscripts to William Blake, and, of course, an entire section devoted to Dante. Clever writing and astonishing illustrations.' * Fine Books magazine *
