"The Existence of Evil Spirits Proved" is a 1843 treatise on the existence of evil spirits and their influence on the human race written by Sir Walter Scott. Originally presented as a series of lectures, this volume explores the realm of the supernatural and attempts to prove the existence of maleficent spirits and demons, with a heavy focus on the Old Testament. Contents include: "The Existence of Evil Spirits," "The Character, State, and Powers of Evil Spirits," "The Agency of Evil Spirits," "The Agency of Evil Spirits (continued)," "The Nature and Manner of their Intercourse with this World; Witchcraft, Divination, etc.," "Demoniacs, Especially those of the New Testament," etc. Sir Walter Scott (1771 - 1832) was a Scottish playwright, historical novelist, and poet. Other notable works by this author include: Ivanhoe (1819), Rob Roy (1817), and Old Mortality (1916). Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.

Excerpt from The Existence of Evil Spirits Proved: And Their Agency, Particularly in Relation to the Human Race, Explain and Illustrated It really requires no small degree of patience to be able to read with calmness such false charges and flimsy reason ing as the above, especially when, though advanced for the ten thousandth time, they are paraded as if they were quite original. The writer, however, either must know, or ought to know, that those whose sentiments he caricatures, not only do not ascribe either omniscience, or omnipotence, or or omnipresence, to the devil, but that they have shown that their sentiments do not involve this ascription; nay, that according to their representations, the powers and capacities of Satan must necessarily be limited, and he may be resisted and overcome.
