The Miracles of Antichrist is a novel written by Selma Lagerlof. The book is a work of fiction that explores the concept of the Antichrist, a figure from Christian eschatology who is said to embody evil and oppose Christ. The story follows a young man named David Holm, who becomes convinced that he is the Antichrist after a series of strange and miraculous events. As David's power grows, he begins to gather a following of devoted followers who believe that he is the savior of the world. However, as David's true intentions become clear, his followers begin to question their allegiance to him. The Miracles of Antichrist is a thought-provoking and unsettling exploration of faith, power, and the nature of evil.1899. In Rome a little group of people came down from the emperor's palace on the Palatine and made their way over the Forum to the Capitol. During the day just completed his councilors had asked the emperor if they might not raise a temple to him on Rome's holy mountain. But Augustus had not immediately given his consent. He did not know if it would be pleasing to the gods for him to possess a temple next to theirs, and he had answered that he wished first to discover by a nocturnal sacrifice to his genius what their wishes were. Followed by a few faithful retainers, he was now on his way to perform that sacrifice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
