English summary: Am I free? Isn't this the most basic question that a human being can ask himself? For each individual's answer depends on the way in which he lives and thinks. However, Spinoza points out a major risk: accepting the illusion of freedom. The worst prejudice - the most dangerous error - is to believe that one is free when one is not.
To be truly free, Spinoza tells us, one must, above all else, free oneself from the illusion of freedom. There is no paradox here, but rather a requirement of thought: true freedom can only be found between determinism and free will. If freedom is a basic reality of human nature, it is also a permanent necessity. Am I free? First, there is individual freedom: how can one live with one's desires without becoming enslaved to them, yet also without renouncing them? Second, political freedom: how can one live in society with one's personality, yet remain in harmony with others? French description: Pourquoi Spinoza ? Parce qu'il est le penseur de la liberte et de la necessite, du desir et de la raison, de l'individu et de la societe, de l'homme et de la nature. Ces tensions sont le signe de son incroyable exigence: il a toujours voulu philosopher vraiment, sans limites, sans peurs, guide par la seule verite, visant la joie et la puissance. Tensions mais aussi intensite: la pensee de Spinoza enthousiasme, bouleverse, eleve, autrement dit libere. C'est ce que cet essai voudrait montrer en s'interessant justement a sa conception de la liberte humaine. Suis-je libre ? j'ai decouvert des mes annees d'etudes que cette question etait essentiellement spinoziste. Si on se la pose c'est que la certitude d'etre libre n'est pas une evidence, mais c'est aussi que la possibilite de la liberte est envisagee. Cette question contient la promesse spinoziste: trouver une liberte qui evite a la fois l'illusion du libre arbitre et le renoncement deterministe. Une liberte reelle.Tant au niveau individuel que collecif, une telle liberte est possible nous dit Spinoza. On y gagne deux choses precieuses; la joie pour l'homme, la paix pour le citoyen.Jean-Francois Robredo est docteur en philosophie. Son orientation metaphysique l'a conduit a s'interesser a la science la plus philosophique, la cosmologie. Il a publie plusieurs ouvrages sur ce theme aux editions Puf. Aujourd'hui, enseignant en philosophie, il tourne de nouveau son regard vers les plus grands textes et les plus grands auteurs philosophiques.
