Vergil ein Faust des Mittelalters, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint)
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book uncovers the little-known history of the medieval figure known as the magician Vergil, exploring how a poet beloved for his writings came to be feared as a master of the dark arts. The author traces the origins of this transformation to the Middle Ages, where Vergil's works, particularly his epic poem the Aeneid, were interpreted as containing magical secrets. Over time, these interpretations evolved into the legend of Vergil the magician, a figure who would heavily influence the development of the Faust myth. The author argues that the story of Vergil's transformation from poet to sorcerer sheds light on the complex relationship between imagination and reality, belief and skepticism, in the medieval mind. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781390207828_0
