SCHELLING, FREEDOM, ŽIŽEK, EVILAbstract
The aim of this paper is to present Schelling’s idea of the emergence of the human being in his Freedom Essay; namely, how human being, rising from the Ground of God, is from the very first moment interwined in the interplay of the Ground and the Existence of God becoming, thus, the only being of the Creation bearing the essential possibility of choosing freely what it wants to will. Furthermore, we will try to see how evil is a necessary condition for both human being’s being able to be free and for the moulding of his personality.
