{"product_id":"women-and-evil","title":"Women and Evil","description":"Human beings love to fictionalize evil - to terrorize each other with stories of defilement, horror, excruciating pain, and divine retribution. Beneath the surface of bewitchment and half-sick amusement, however, lies the realization that evil is real and that people must find a way to face and overcome it. What we require, Carl Jung suggested, is a morality of evil - a carefully thought out plan by which to manage the evil in ourselves, in others, and in whatever deities we posit.  This book is not written from a Jungian perspective, but it is nonetheless an attempt to describe a morality of evil. One suspects that descriptions of evil and the so - called problem of evil have been thoroughly suffused with male interests and conditioned by masculine experience. This result could hardly have been avoided in a sexist culture, and recognizing the truth of such a claim does not commit us to condemn every male philosopher and theologian who has written on the problem. It suggests, rather, that we may get a clearer view of evil if we take a different standpoint.\nThe standpoint I take here will be that of women; that is, I will attempt to describe evil from the perspective of women's experience.","brand":"University of California Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54221923254616,"sku":"9780520074132","price":36.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9780520074132.jpg?v=1768627812","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/women-and-evil","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
