The Devils And Evil Spirits Of Babylonia, Being Babylonian And Assyrian Incantations Against The Demons, Ghouls, Vampires, Hobgoblins, Ghosts, And Kindred Evil Spirits, Which Attack Mankind. Volume II | Free Book
R. Campbell Thompson
Volume II of “The Devils And Evil Spirits Of Babylonia”, a 1903 work
by Reginald C. Thompson that looks at the religion and spiritual
beliefs of Babylon, the powerful kingdom in ancient Mesopotamia that
existed from the 18th to 6th centuries BC. It includes English
translations of various 'Evil Spirit Texts', which form large and
important sections of the native literature concerning Babylonian and
Assyrian demonology. Reginald Campbell Thompson (1876 – 1941) was a
British archaeologist, cuneiformist, and Assyriologist. He is famous
for his work on excavations at Nineveh, Ur, Nebo and Carchemish. Other
notable works by this author include: “The Devils and Evil Spirits of
Babylonia” (1903–1904), “Semitic Magic: its Origins and Development”
(1908), and “Archaeologia, Vol LXX” (1921). Many vintage books such as
this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind
that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern,
high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new
biography of the author.
