Summary "Piru: Historiallinen katsaus pirun alkuperään, elämään ja toimintaan" by Juho Kujala is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. The book explores the origins, life, and actions associated with the concept of the devil, drawing connections from various religious beliefs and historical contexts. It delves into ancient perspectives on good and evil spirits, the development of dualism, and the evolution of the character of Satan through cultural narratives. At the start of the work, the author introduces the philosophical and psychological underpinnings of humanity’s understanding of life and death, illustrating how early perceptions of a dichotomy between body and soul fostered beliefs in spirits and deities. He discusses how primitive societies began to attribute natural phenomena and misfortunes to the actions of spirits, which divided into “good” and “evil” categories over time. The opening sets the stage for an in-depth examination of how the figure of the devil emerged from these ancient beliefs and transformed in religious and cultural narratives, marking a significant evolution in humanity's moral and spiritual understanding.
