God, gratuitous evil, and van Inwagen's attempt to reconcile the two

Both critics and advocates of evidential arguments from evil often assume that theistic belief is not compatible with gratuitous evil. It is often assumed, in other words, that an omniscient, omnipotent, perfectly good being would not permit an evil unless he had a morally sufcient reason to permit it. However, this cornerstone of evidential arguments from evil has come under increasing re of late, in particular by Peter van Inwagen. The aim of this paper is to outline and then assess van Inwagen's attempt to reconcile theism with gratuitous evil.

Eine neu entdeckte Zeichnung von Justus van Egmont

Zu den bemerkenswertesten Zeichnern aus dem Umkreis des für die Kunst seiner Zeit prägenden Peter Paul Rubens gehört dessen langjähriger Mitarbeiter Justus van Egmont. Als vor allem in Frankreich tätiger flämischer Künstler ließ er sich nicht bruchlos in die nationalistisch geprägten Kunstvorstellungen des 19. Jahrhunderts einfügen, deren Kanon bis heute fortwirkt. Mit der Vorstellung einer in Stuttgart befindlichen Zeichnung als Werk van Egmonts soll nicht nur deren Neuzuschreibung zur Diskussion gestellt, sondern auch die weiterführende Beschäftigung mit einem zu Unrecht vergessenen Künstler angeregt werden.
