| 520 | |a In the introduction to the book he was writing at the time of his death, Bill Harmless spoke of Augustine’s meditations on evil and its origins in the self-made darkness of the human heart. This paper reflects on this Augustinian understanding of the foundations of evil. The initial section considers the modern project of theodicy in reference to Augustine, with a focus on John Hick’s Evil and the God of Love and its critics. The second section explores several themes in Augustine’s treatment of evil in context, concentrating on Confessions and some earlier texts. The basis of Augustine’s approach to evil is discussed with reference to his account of the soul’s immediate contemplation of God. In that deepest association with God, Augustine finds the root of evil disclosed in the darkness of the soul that resists sustained union with God. | ||
