Talk:Devil/to do


 * Create a section on the cultural background and possible origins of the Devil. (Russell's The Devil: Perceptions of Evil from Antiquity to Primitive Christianity, Forsyth's The Old Enemy: Satan & the Combat Myth, Pagel's Origin of Satan and Wray and Mobley's The Birth of Satan: Tracing the Devil's Biblical Roots can be taken as resources.)
 * Temporary comment: attending the Warburg's Open Seminar 2.12.2011 in London may be useful.


 * Replace the "Religious accounts" section with new sections; "Religious narratives" and "Theological/philosophical beliefs about the Devil". The former should describe how the devil is portrayed in narratives (e.g the temptation of Jesus) with little reference to theology.


 * Create a section on the Devil in modern literature (e.g Paradise Lost, The Devil and Daniel Webster) and expand on the folklore section.


 * Create a section on how the Devil was portrayed in art.
