The Antichrist Legend: A Chapter in Christian and Jewish Folklore is a book written by Wilhelm Bousset, originally published in German in 1895. The book explores the legend of the Antichrist, a figure who is said to appear before the end of the world as a false messiah and enemy of Christ. Bousset examines the origins and development of the Antichrist legend in both Christian and Jewish folklore, tracing its roots back to the Old Testament and the Book of Daniel. He also discusses how the legend has been used throughout history to serve various political and religious agendas. The book provides a comprehensive overview of this fascinating and enduring legend, making it an essential read for anyone interested in the history of religion and mythology.1896. Mr. Bousset offers an indispensable preliminary essay on the subject of the Antichrist legend. This sketch may perhaps serve to stimulate the efforts of other workers in this endlessly entangled and almost limitless field of literature, and thus promote its study and bring fresh materials to light. Also found within is a prologue on the Babylonian dragon myth and an old Armenian form of the Antichrist saga.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
