Über das Buch

S. Baring-Gould's «The Book of Were-Wolves» is a seminal text in the study of lycanthropy and its cultural manifestations, weaving together folklore, history, and acute psychological insight. Written in the late 19th century, the book is characterized by a meticulous blend of empirical research and captivating narrative style, reflecting the era's burgeoning interest in the paranormal as well as the romantic ideals of the Gothic. Baring-Gould examines a plethora of werewolf legends from various cultures, grounding supernatural lore in tangible reality and exploring the psychological implications of such transformations, thus enriching the literary context of horror and the uncanny that thrived during the Victorian period. S. Baring-Gould was not only a prolific writer but an astute scholar with a deep-seated fascination for mythology and folklore, having published extensively on various topics, including religious studies and local history. His diverse background and interests informed his examination of lycanthropy; witnessing the complexities of human nature and history led him to explore how mythologies evolve from societal fears and desires. Baring-Gould's insight into the human psyche, combined with his thorough research, allows readers to encounter werewolves not merely as monsters but as reflections of deeper truths. In «The Book of Were-Wolves,» readers are invited to traverse the thin boundary between reality and myth. The book serves well both scholars of folklore and casual readers who crave a deeper understanding of the mythos surrounding werewolves. Baring-Gould's exploration will captivate anyone interested in the darker aspects of human nature and the lore that emerges from it, making this an essential read for those drawn to the enigmatic and the eerie.
