DEMONS: Good & Bad
An Interdisciplinary Conference
27–28 October 2022
Trinity Long Room Hub, Trinity College, Dublin
Demonology has been significant in human life throughout history, and is of continuous relevance for multiple aspects of human life. Its scope of influence spans from ancient to contemporary times, and applies to multiple disciplines, such as religion, arts, environmental studies, or medicine.
Adequately juxtaposed with Halloween 2022, the Demons Good and Bad conference will explore the ambivalence of demons, e.g., in terms of their perceived spatial location, morality, physical essence, and functionality; their decline and rise in recent times; and implications of their perceived presence in multiple aspects of human life.
