UNDERSTANDING EVIL IN A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF EUROPEAN WRITERS (MIRCEA ELIADE AND OSCAR WILDE)

Summary/Abstract: Since ancient times, the idea of Good or Evil has known a great interest to critics, philosophers and theologians, because these concepts belong to a field in which the inexplicable due to the absence of palpability is a sphere in which the two sciences relate. Eliade writing Miss Christina and the masterpiece The Picture of Dorian Gray, belonging to the writer Oscar Wilde manage to portray the phenomenon of possession in a colorful and tension-filled atmosphere, revealing the existence of affinities among European culture people. A magnificent settlement of these creations shall reveal the mystery of demonic acts accomplished by strangely metamorphosed characters such as Christina and Dorian Gray.By supporting the idea that God is present in the world of realities, we should imagine that the Devil may also occupy the same place and hold the same position. Man has always tended to unify his ideas, turning them into a particular monism, giving up the appearance that more forces control everything, and reduce their plurality to a single unity. Thus, while belief in the values of Good focuses on the idea of divinity, the one in the values of Evil leads to the appearance of a demonic deity conceived so as to embody everything that is destructive and immoral, undesirable and fearful - the EVIL.Evil is depicted - in most situations - by the embodiment of a being who sends us with the thought of the entity called Devil (Satan in Hebrew), that is, the Adversary, the Enemy, the Accuser, the Defamer, etc. It can substantially contribute to the process of degeneration of a human being, which is actually the onset of the soul's (demonic) possession. Degeneration is the way the human soul begins to accumulate more hate - objective psychic energy with a well-defined origin and cause, not just a subjective feeling of discomfort. This negative energy is a specific manifestation of inorganic entities that have invaded the human energy field - the subject of this process being chosen against its will.The process of degeneration is a very subtle and that manages to wrap the degenerate and his close ones, into a veil of unconsciousness, a “cloth” of degradation of the relational quality. This veil manages to hide the truth and successfully covers the deviant behaviors specific to the subject, justifying as being correct and absolutely normal all these unmotivated "deviations from the norm". Humans can reach degeneration and also by conscious choice of Evil, as a solution in obtaining a well-rounded and comfortable material life. This is in the case of the two writers mentioned above, where the pact with the Devil leads to an involution of the human being, that leads to a death of the soul.
