Isi artikel
For hundreds of years, Hell has been the most fearful place in the human imagination. It is also the most absurd. To many in the West, Hell is just a medieval relic. It went out with ducking stools and witchcraft. It should have disappeared with Plato, who said he wanted to delete every reference to future pain from Homer as damaging to moral character; or with Cicero, who said not even old women believed it; or with Seneca, who thought it a fable only for not-yet-shaving boys. Hell hardly hurts any more. In everyday parlance ("What the hell are you doing?"), it is merely a bark, not a place. As a place, it is anywhere nasty: the London Underground in summer, the worst bits of Lower Manhattan, department stores at sales time, a publisher's party.
