Review - French Cet ouvrage regroupe des articles issus d'un colloque international interdisciplinaire organise a l'universite de Georgetown au Qatar, intitule La question du mal : litterature, ethique, politique, religion comparee . Le lecteur n'y trouvera pas une simple juxtaposition detopoisur ce theme tant rebattu qu'est le mal mais des approches qui se veulent innovantes, originales, jonglant precisement avec les idees recues. Le recueil se clot sur un entretien avec Francois Bizot, l'auteur duSilence du bourreauet duPortail, qui a affirme la paradoxale humanite du bourreau. Et si l'essence meme de l'homme se confondait avec le mal ? Telle est l'une des questions que nous posons et a laquelle nous cherchons, collectivement, a repondre.
