No one will deny that we live in a world where evil exists. But how are                  we to come to grips with human atrocity and its diabolical intensity? Martin Beck                  Matu?t?k considers evil to be even more radically evil than previously thought                  and to have become all too familiar in everyday life. While we can name various                  moral wrongs and specific cruelties, Matu?t?k maintains that radical evil                  understood as a religious phenomenon requires a religious response where the                  language of hope, forgiveness, redemption, and love can take us beyond unspeakable                  harm and irreparable violence. Drawing upon the work of Kant, Schelling,                  Kierkegaard, Levinas, Derrida, and Marion, this work is written as a series of                  meditations. Matu?t?k presents a bold new way of dealing with one of humanity's                  most intractable problems.
