Abstract
This paper deals with the german philosopher Rüdiger Safranski reflection around the problem of liberty; for Safranski, evil is the 'Iocus' of the internal dramma of liberty. From a contemporary perspective Safranski tries to assume the classical problem of evil early developed by the idealism in the modern framework of the rational autonomy of the will. The eclectical Safranski's viewpoint costs a suggestive perspective to see the relationship between evil and liberty, and at the same time gives an interpretation of the structural articulation between contemporary culture and nihilism.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
