| Summary | "Il Diavolo" by Arturo Graf is a philosophical treatise written in the late 19th century. This work explores the concept of the devil, drawing from various myths, legends, and theological interpretations. Graf examines the evolution of the figure of Satan from its origins in ancient religions to its representation in Christianity, offering insight into humanity's fear and fascination with evil. At the start of the text, the author dedicates his work to fellow writer Edmondo De Amicis and outlines his intent to present a more accessible version of the devil's lore than what is typically found in academic or scholarly texts. Graf discusses significant themes surrounding the evolution of the devil's image, touching on myths from different cultures that depict the devil as both a fallen angel and a primal force of evil. The opening sets the stage for a deeper exploration into the origins and manifestations of the devil across various beliefs, indicating that the subsequent chapters will delve into historical, psychological, and moral dimensions of the devil's representation throughout different eras.
