THEODICY is the branch of theology that tries to explain the existence of evil in the world; it is concerned primarily with rationalizing the apparently unjust behaviour of a definitionally just God.
THE ODYSSEY is the story of an impeccably moral man who just wants to go home to the arms of his wife after 10 years of war and runs into no end of trouble in the attempt; it is, in other words, a recognition of the reality of evil in the world.
I'd like to see a work of literature that recognizes this clever pun.
