Examines and defends a wide range of antitheodicisms, analysing post-Holocaust ethics, W | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .This bookdefends antitheodicism, arguing that theodicies, seeking to excuse God forevil and suffering in the world, fail to ethically acknowledge the victims ofsuffering. The authors argue for this view using literary and philosophicalresources, commencing with Immanuel Kant’s 1791 “Theodicy Essay” and itsreading of the Book of Job. Three important twentieth century antitheodicist positionsare explored, including “Jewish” post-Holocaust ethical antitheodicism,Wittgensteinian antitheodicism exemplified by D.Z. Phillips and pragmatistantitheodicism defended by William James. The authors argue that theseapproaches to evil and suffering are fundamentally Kantian. Literary workssuch as Franz Kafka’s .The Trial., Samuel Beckett’s .Waiting for Godot., andGeorge Orwell’s .Nineteen Eighty-Four., are examined in order to cruciallyadvance the philosophical case for antitheodicism. . | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | God; evil; suffering; morality; free will | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-40883-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-82209-9 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-40883-5 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
