The Mask of Freedom in the Theatre of Absurdities

The Mask of Freedom in the Theatre of Absurdities is a journey through the paradoxes of liberty, guided by the voices of eight great thinkers: Voltaire, Hume, Rousseau, Locke, Tocqueville, Mill, Stirner, and Burke. From the dangers of absurd beliefs to the fragility of reason, from the chains of civilization to the protections of law, from the tyranny of majorities to the defense of individuality, this book explores freedom as both promise and illusion.
The narrative moves beyond abstract philosophy into a reflection on our own century. Digital mobs, algorithmic passions, economic dependencies, and cultural fragmentation reveal that the questions asked in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries are more urgent than ever today. Are we truly free-or do we simply wear new masks in a theatre that grows more absurd with time?Far from offering a final answer, this work presents a mosaic of insights.
It invites readers to confront freedom's contradictions, to see how easily liberty dissolves into tyranny, and to discover how change, individuality, and vigilance might preserve it. For those seeking not simple slogans but profound reflections, this book is both a warning and an invitation: to unmask the illusions that bind us, and to imagine new forms of freedom in the twenty-first century.
