Verso ci\u00f2 che ci affascina, ma non per dominarlo. \u00c8 forse questa la sfida pi\u00f9 grande per l\u2019amore oggi: rinunciare all\u2019idea del controllo, del possesso, della fusione tra gli amanti. Ma anche vincere la paura di lasciarsi andare e l\u2019illusione d\u2019essere felici senza vivere passioni travolgenti. In un tempo in cui le relazioni si rivelano fragili e domina il culto dell\u2019\u201cio\u201d, Pietro Del Sold\u00e0 prova a rispondere a una domanda antica e urgentissima: che cosa significa davvero amare?When desire is genuine, it draws us toward what we lack, but not to possess it. Toward what fascinates us, but not to control it. Perhaps this is love\u2019s greatest challenge today: letting go of control, possession, and the illusion of perfect fusion between lovers. But also overcoming the fear of surrendering ourselves, and the illusion that we can be fulfilled without ever risking overwhelming passion. At a time when relationships feel increasingly fragile and the cult of the self dominates, Pietro Del Sold\u00e0 takes on an ancient yet urgent question: What does it truly mean to love?<br\/><em>Amore e libert\u00e0<\/em> \u00e8 un viaggio tra filosofia, letteratura e storie di vita sulle tracce del \u201cdivino Eros\u201d. Le parole di Diotima e Socrate, Plotino, Lucrezio, bell hooks, Merleau-Ponty, Eshkol Nevo sono messe a confronto con i punti critici della nostra vita sentimentale: il maschilismo, il terrore della dipendenza, il narcisismo, il conformismo, la reificazione del corpo e della bellezza, l\u2019ossessione per l\u2019identit\u00e0. Per scoprire che l\u2019amore non \u00e8 un rifugio ma uno spazio fragile e dinamico che ci apre al mondo.\u201cLove and Freedom\u201d is a journey through philosophy, literature, and real-life stories in search of the \u201cdivine Eros\u201d. The voices of Diotima and Socrates, Plotinus, Lucretius, bell hooks, Merleau-Ponty, and Eshkol Nevo are brought into dialogue with the fractures of modern love: toxic masculinity, the fear of dependence, narcissism, social conformity, the objectification of bodies, and the obsession with identity.Con una scrittura limpida e coinvolgente, Pietro Del Sold\u00e0 \u2013 filosofo e voce tra le pi\u00f9 riconoscibili del panorama culturale italiano \u2013 propone un\u2019originale filosofia del desiderio, in grado di parlarci senza mai cadere nella semplificazione. <em>Amore e libert\u00e0<\/em> \u00e8 un libro che mette in crisi le nostre certezze, ci spinge a pensare oltre gli stereotipi e offre una visione lucida e vitale della passione che d\u00e0 senso alla vita.What emerges is a vision of love not as a refuge, but as a fragile, dynamic space, one that opens us to the world and to others.<br\/>With clarity and depth, Pietro Del Sold\u00e0, philosopher and one of the most distinctive voices in Italian cultural life, offers a bold and original philosophy of desire that resonates deeply without resorting to simplification.<br\/>\u201cLove and Freedom\u201d is a book that challenges our certainties, cuts through the clich\u00e9s, and reclaims passion as a vital, meaning-giving force in human life.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When desire is genuine, it draws us toward what we lack, but not to possess it.
