Hannah Arendt spoke of the banality of evil--the normalisation of
the unutterable, simply because that was how things were in any
given place and time. Is evil really so disappointing? We expect
evil to be dramatic, unfathomable and remarkable; the workings of a
twisted genius, a fallen angel, Iblis. But what if the mediocre
perpetuate it, the followers, the weak, the masses? What defines
evil? What is the devil's greatest trick in our contemporary world?
Some even claim evil no longer exists--if it ever did. The greying
morality of postmodernism begs the question of whether one can even
be good.
