RLST 142 AF - The Problem of Evil: African-American Engagements With(in) Western Thought
CrsNo RLST142 AF
When Offered: Fall 2013.
Instructor(s): D. Smith
Thematically explores the many ways African Americans have encountered and responded to evils (pain, wickedness and undeserved suffering) both as a part of and apart from the broader Western tradition. We will examine how such encounters trouble the distinction made between natural and moral evil and how they highlight the tensions between theodicies and further ethical concerns. (CWS, PRT)
