Evil in the Western Philosophical Tradition (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

Charting a sweeping history of evil within the Western philosophical tradition, Gavin Rae shows that the problem of evil - as a conceptual problem - came to the fore with the rise of monotheism. Rae traces the problem of evil from early and Medieval Christian philosophy to modern philosophy, German Idealism, post-structuralism and contemporary analytic philosophy and secularisation.
