Abstract
Leitmotif of this paper is the “eterogenesi dei fini”, considered as one of the most important theme of philosophy and of theology of history; general symbols of it are myths of Nimrod and Babel: on the one hand we can take into consideration the great universal man, such as a super-human hero and a God’s enemy, but on the other hand we have to regard the big city, place of work and scene of political collective consent and of totalitarian state organization. This essay aims to give a wider philosophical interpretation of Genesis Tales, focusing on Abraham’s life, considering him as an archetype of freedom and of personal responsability. According to last empirical meaning of this paper, the author is going to adopt a new theoretical perspective by lending importance to the basic question about intelligibiliy of human history.
