The second of three volumes presenting revised versions of papers delivered to the Demons, Spirits, and Witches conference in Budapest in 1999 contains 17 essays focusing on how such figures appear in learned and popular literature, mostly in Central Europe but also as far as Sweden and Mongolia. Scholars of history, literature, and anthropology consider such topics as an iconographical approach to representations of the Devil in Medieval Hungary, serpent-damsels and dragon slayers as overlapping divinities in a Medieval tradition, and Gog and Magog in the Slovenian folk tradition.
