520 1 |a "Are people evil, or do only actions qualify as evil? Is evil identical with intentional malice? Or do we do harm unwittingly? Drawing upon philosophical classics and popular literature, Daryl Koehn argues that suffering, not malicious violence, is at the heart of true evil. Through highly original readings of works such as The Talented Mr. Ripley, The Turn of the Screw, and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Koehn shows how suffering arises from the failure to know who we truly are. This failure leads to dread and anxiety. In a vain effort to stabilize our false identities, we lash out at other people and destroy ourselves in the process. The Nature of Evil examines the dynamics of dread, dynamics possessing their own logic and energy. Koehn's insightful analysis of evil comes at this crucial moment when we are struggling to understand the roots of violence and suffering."--Jacket.
