Realtà e negatività: Pareyson tra Heidegger e Gadamer

ENAbstract The article seeks to analyse Pareyson’s ontology of freedom emphasizing its meaning for the concept of Reality. Although the very term of Reality appears in Pareyson’s thinking sporadically, it is precisely this concept that concentrates the charge of the Negativity in ontology of freedom. It is shown that the interface between Negativity and Reality not only reveals the meaning of Reality in Pareyson’s ontology of freedom, but also enhances the thinking of Kantian-Heideggerian difference between Realitat and Wirklichkeit in philosophical tradition. Along these lines Pareyson’s philosophy enters into the field of discussion on Reality in Heidegger’s / Gadamer’s philosophy and allows us to raise the question: what kind of Reality are we talking about?.
