Abstract

In this article, Severson explores the insights of Emmanuel Levinas regarding theodicy and the problem of evil. Levinas considers philosophical and practical justifications of suffering to be blasphemous, violating the sanctity of the suffering of the other person, even when well-meant. Severson introduces distinctions between “pain” and “suffering” to extrapolate and explain Levinas’s striking rejection of theodicy.

亵渎列维纳斯与苦难的不正当性
在这篇文章中,塞弗森探讨了埃马纽埃尔-列维纳斯关于神论和邪恶问题的见解。列维纳斯认为,从哲学和实践上为痛苦辩护是对神的亵渎,它侵犯了他人痛苦的神圣性,即使是善意的。塞弗森引入了 "痛苦 "和 "苦难 "之间的区别,以推断和解释列维纳斯对神道论的惊人拒绝。
