About the book

"The volume provides an in-depth philosophical investigation into freedom as reality's point of origin and the metaphysical quality of being, anchored in a re-evaluation of Luigi Pareyson's reflections on the ontology of freedom. The first and fourth chapter focuses specifically on the Italian philosopher, with chapter 4 discussing his ideas on the genesis of evil. The second and third chapter uses current scientific knowledge to retrace the presence of freedom at the birth of the universe and during its evolution (chapter 2), as well as in the world of biology (chapter 3). The sixth and final chapter, through an analysis of episodes taken from the Pentateuch (Moses, Abraham, Eden), rebuilds the idea of freedom as it emerges from the Bible"-- Back cover.
