Abstract:   (287 Views)
This article explores Paul Ricoeur’s approach to the concept of evil, analyzing its symbolic meaning within various myths through the lens of philosophical and theological interpretation. The study seeks to answer fundamental questions: Where does evil originate? How can the symbolic interpretation of myths contribute to human moral growth? Is it possible to distill the essence of primitive symbols and transfer their meaning into philosophical insight, thereby bridging the semantic gap in a modern world dominated by scientism?
Ricoeur argues that evil resists direct and simple linguistic categorization. Instead, he engages with multiple intellectual traditions—mythological thought, rationalism, Gnosticism, theodicy, and fragmented theology—crafting a layered, evolving analysis of evil.
