Don Moss, MD Lecture: Encountering Representations of Evil

Presenter: Don Moss, MD

Time: 10:30 am – 12: 30 am

Date: May 18, 2024

Program Description: Evil is grounded in an effort to correct the errors of Creation– to define, categorize and eliminate what it designates as sources of threat and pain.  This logic of elimination distinguishes evil from sadism’s logic of excitement.  Stressing personal reactions and leaning on the work of Freud, Primo Levi and Hannah Arendt, the text takes up pertinent issues raised by Israel/Gaza and by the Institute for Peace and Justice (the “lynching museum”) in Montgomery, Alabama.
