Evil: A History (Oxford Philosophical Concepts)
Andrew Chignell (ed.)
New York: Oxford University Press (2019)
Abstract
Thirteen original essays examine the conceptual history of evil in the west: from ancient Hebrew literature and Greek drama to Darwinism and Holocaust theory. Thirteen reflections contextualize the philosophical developments by looking at evil through the eyes of animals, poets, mystics, witches, librettists, film directors, and tech executives.Author's Profile
