Evil and Finitude Dialogue with Ricoeur and Levinas

According to Emmanuel Falque the question of evil does not arise today "after Auschwitz", but "after the after-Auschwitz". With this conviction, this text attempts to reach the "metaphysical" roots of evil by neither reducing its moral value (opposed to good) nor its theological dimension (sin). Not satisfied anymore that evil relates to "fallibility" (Ricceur), the text tries to bind it to "finiteness" (our own perspective) by relating it this time to the "elemental evil" (Levinas). It is on this condition, and this condition alone, that a descent of Christ into the chaos of our "hells" will be made possible on the day of Holy Saturday.
