Description
Paul Ricoeur's exploration of evil delves into its nature and impact on human existence. This work is divided into three parts, examining the problem of evil from a phenomenological perspective, speculative theories about its origin and nature, and the complexities of human experience in relation to evil.
The discussion draws upon a range of intellectual traditions, from ancient philosophers like Augustine and Kant, to modern thinkers such as Harold Kushner and John K. Roth. Ricoeur's own insights into human vulnerability to evil are presented with depth and sensitivity.
