Abstract
In his Ontology of Freedom Luigi Pareyson develops an interpretation of philosophy in relation to the problem of God which deserves attention and critical discussion. Its basic idea is that God isn't the proper object of philosophy, but of religious experience; hence, if philosophy wants to speak about God, she is allowed to do it only in an indirect form. This means that philosophy has to transform itself in hermeneutic of the religious experience, or myth interpreter, myth being meant as manifestation of truth, revelation's experience. Therefore, the suitable language to speak about God is not the conceptual but the symbolic one: in his apparent poverty, it can better foster the dialectic of divine hiding and revelation, of transcendence and presence which is at the very heart of religious experience.
