"The lady and the wench" : a practical theodicy in Russian literature.

    Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

    Abstract

    In the study of religion, it is important to distinguish broadly between two forms of theodicy: theoretical and practical. Both forms address the fundamental concern of all theodicy, "the justice of God," but they do so in different contexts and for different purposes.
