Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the philosophical ideas of Augustine, an influential theologian and philosopher of antiquity, on the perplexing problem of evil. The author meticulously examines Augustine's writings to dissect his intricate conception of the relationship between God, the source of all existence, and the origins of evil. By analyzing Augustine's exploration of the nature of evil as a deficiency or negation rather than a substantial entity, the book sheds light on the evolution of Augustine's ideas over time. The author skillfully situates Augustine's ideas within the context of significant historical debates and philosophical controversies, particularly his vehement opposition to the Manichean doctrine of evil as a co-eternal entity alongside God. This book offers profound insights into Augustine's complex and nuanced understanding of evil, a subject that has intrigued philosophers and theologians throughout history.
