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 I | Free Book
R. Campbell Thompson
Volume I 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.
