Wybawienie od „malum” przez artystyczne ukwiecenie zła
Kiesel, Helmuth (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
Since Jesus taught his disciples to pray our Father, Christians have begged and beg the „Father” in heaven to save them from evil. The range of Greek and Latin wording of the seventh request Our Father should be borne in mind when – starting from her – we want to look at the so-called literature. This may prove fruitful, because modem literature in the handling of „malum” in all its phenomenal forms has followed a different path than the way of prayer for salvation. It is a way of confirming and justifying (not embellishing) evil and unhappiness in order to use the Latin word „malum”, the way of appeasing evil (Malitätsbonisierung) and the flowering of evil (Malitätsflorisierung). The author of the article points out that the concept of „provoking evil” was developed by the philosopher Od Marquard, describing himself as a „transcendental fiction” in a work entitled: Entlastungen: Theodizeemotive in der neuzeitlichen Philosophie, which appeared in 1984.
