The function of evil across disciplinary contexts
Malcah Effron (ed.)
Lanham: Lexington Books (2017)
Abstract
The book offers an interdisciplinary approach to a subject that has largely been the province of religious studies and philosophy. Tackling the function of evil across social contexts rather than seeking a definition of evil, this collection explores the use of the term "evil" in multiple eras, genres, and disciplines.Other Versions
