Delbanco explains how writers from the previous three centuries have described evil and attempted to defy and conquer it in a spiritual biography of America. He demonstrates how writers like Cotton Mather, Thomas Jefferson, and Abraham Lincoln, Emerson and Melville, Thoreau and Whitman, Niebuhr and Trilling, Rachel Carson, and Susan Sontag recognized and combated evil. One way of discussing evil is to demonize and satanize it, viewing evil as a distant entity. However, Satan can be a representation of our own lack of love, as well as our tendency for jealously and hostility toward creation. We've always been torn between these two approaches to comprehending evil. ( ) Zeige 3 von 3 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
