A brief history of the devil - Brian A. Pavlac
Download a free audiobook version of "Devil in the White City" and support TED-Ed's nonprofit mission: www.audible.com/ted-ed
--
Satan, the beast crunching sinners’ bones. Lucifer, the fallen angel. Mephistopheles, the trickster striking deals. These three divergent devils are all based on Satan of the Old Testament. But unlike any of these literary devils, the Satan of the Bible was a relatively minor character. So how did he become the ultimate antagonist, with so many different forms? Brian A. Pavlac investigates.
Lesson by Brian A. Pavlac, directed by Reza Riahi & Mehdi Shiri.

Just a week ago here in italy we celebrated "Dantedì" "dante's day"; a sign of respect and appreciation for the glorious poet. And it is truly an honour to watch how Dante defined and sculpted not only our culture, but the world's. And this year, 2021, marks the 700th anniversary of the death of Dante

To be fair, there's actually very little Satan in the Bible. You could probably read all of it in less than half an hour.
Interesting Idea for everyone to consider: Satan, in hebrew, means Adversary or Accuser. Lucifer means Morning Star. Some believe that Satan isn't a person but instead a title.

I would like to add Portrait of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde. The characteristics of the formerly work is parallels with Faust. I recommend it due to it shows a main character, whom seeks maintaining his beauty for his soul. This immortality results the main character (Dorian Grey) falls to hedonisme and his never ending desires.
