Description

Nearly two years on, the experiences and trajectories of the pandemic across the world have confirmed that it has been in the grasp of a systemic malaise, ‘le mal’. Everywhere evil is as a viral condition: in the etymological sense of a poison and in the media-theoretical sense, in its uncontrollable spread, of a contagion. It is time to revaluate the concept of evil, raising it as perhaps the only term through which philosophy can reflect on the pandemic. This collection contains responses from moral and political philosophy, epistemology, and ontology, literary studies, theology and psychoanalysis. It is a collective meditation which takes a plural approach to the sufferings of different parts of the world, deploying a stance dedicated to place and specificity.Their distinct contributions arise from multiple traditions, with voices from within and beyond the “western” canon. The eighteen mediations decline the temptation to isolate the pandemic as a simple great event, equal across the globe that it continues to devastate. Instead, like the witches of Macbeth, they come together as a gathering to speak of this state of evil, for it is our own condition. They explore the hesitating question, which yet confesses a terrifying suspicion: is it possible to speak of evil in the time of the pandemic? About the Author Divya Dwivedi is a philosopher based in the Indian Subcontinent. She is associate professor of Philosophy and Literature in the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. She is the co-author with Shaj Mohan of Gandhi and Philosophy: On Theological Anti-Politics and co-editor of Narratology and Ideology and Public Sphere from outside the West. She is also the guest editor of a special issue of Critical Philosophy of Race which is devoted to caste.
