De Origine Mali

By William King

De Origine Mali (Concerning the Origin of Evil) is a philosophical treatise by William King, originally published in Latin in 1702. This influential work explores the problem of evil, a central question in theology and philosophy that seeks to reconcile the existence of a benevolent, omnipotent God with the presence of evil and suffering in the world.

King delves into the metaphysical and moral dimensions of evil, examining various perspectives on its nature and origin. He critiques existing theories and proposes his own framework for understanding the compatibility of divine goodness with the reality of evil. Key themes include the role of free will, the nature of divine justice, and the possibility of a world without evil.

"De Origine Mali" offers a rigorous and systematic analysis of a complex and enduring problem, making it a valuable resource for scholars and anyone interested in the philosophical and theological dimensions of evil.
