Carl Jung, Victor White, livro de “Jó”, “Answer to Job”, malResumo
Este artigo trata do problema do mal dentro do quadro de referência da psicologia profunda. A primeira parte introduz, de modo breve, a narrativa do livro de “Jó” como um exemplo para contextualizar a questão fundamental da relação de Deus com o mal e de como ela permaneceu não respondida e foi deixada em aberto na teologia cristã. A segunda parte reconstrói, historicamente, a polêmica não resolvida a respeito da natureza do mal entre Carl Jung (1875-1961) e o scholar, teólogo e dominicano inglês, Victor White (1902-1960). Examina as diferentes especulações e formulações que ambos fizeram relativas ao mal e suas implicações psicológicas, até a ruptura final, após a severa resenha crítica de White a respeito da obra mais controversa de Jung sobre religião, “Answer to Job”. A parte final deste artigo introduz reflexões adicionais a um tema desafiador que é tão poderoso e relevante no mundo atual de terrorismo em nome da religião, quanto o era na Europa do pós-guerra, que lutava para recuperar-se do totalitarismo e do genocídio.
