Description: The Fiery Angel : A Sixteenth Century Romance Valeri Briussov1975 Translated by Ivor Montagu and Sergei Nalbandov Originally published in Russian in 1908 and in English in 1930. One of the most remarkable novels ever written on the subject of magic and witchcraft. --Dust Jacket Blurb ---------- The novel is a meticulous account of sixteenth-century Germany, notably Cologne and the world of the occult. Characters such as Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa and Faust appear alongside a description of a Black Mass. ... The Fiery Angel is generally regarded as a work of painstaking research and heightened emotion in which the author's comprehensive knowledge of the esoteric is displayed. Its modernity is reflected in its tension between sexuality and spirituality. The Fiery Angel has been compared to Mikhail Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita for its general theme of the occult, to Joris-Karl Huysmans's Là-bas for its description of a black Mass, and to Aldous Huxley's The Devils of Loudun for its depiction of religious hysteria. --Wikipedia First Edition Thus See photos for a better idea of item's actual condition.
