Maps, literature and texts ranging from Medieval Europe, the Byzantine and Arab world, in Berber, Persian and Indonesian traditions, to contemporary internet texts: all use these imaginary monstrous creatures. The figures are constantly reinterpreted as the enemies of order change. Gog and Magog have been represented with dog heads, snake tongues. On the covers of contemporary Arab apocalyptic literature they may be giants or half-humans.This volume Embodiments of Evil: Gog and Magog reveals in eight essays the images of the ?Other? in genres ranging from contemporary folk religion on the internet to the rich literary heritage of Alexander romances. 410 0$aIranian Studies Series. 606 $aApocalyptic literature 606 $aEnd of the world (Islam) 606 $aEnd of the world (Islam) 606 $aEnd of the world$xBiblical teaching 606 $aEschatology 606 $aGog en Magog$2gtt 606 $aGood and evil in literature 606 $aOther (Philosophy) in literature 606 $aLITERARY CRITICISM / Middle Eastern$2bisacsh 610 $aLiterary Criticism, Culture Studies, Gog and Magog. 615 0$aApocalyptic literature. 615 0$aEnd of the world (Islam) 615 0$aEnd of the world (Islam). 615 0$aEnd of the world$xBiblical teaching. 615 0$aEschatology. 615 7$aGog en Magog 615 0$aGood and evil in literature. 615 0$aOther (Philosophy) in literature. 615 7$aLITERARY CRITICISM / Middle Eastern. 676 $a236.9 700 $aSeyed-Gohrab$b A.
