Reflections on the modern experience and the freedom

This paper aims to analyze the relation between the advent of the modern experience and the question of freedom, from a reflection on the event of the death of God. Following the reflections contained in the workmanships of Foucault, Sartre, Sloterdjik, Blanchot, we examined the specificity of the nietzschean´s thought of the death of God and its consequences for the life and the modern experience. Thus, we concluded that the modern experience would point out a paradox that designates a movement that would be between the freedom as continuous task and the shades of gods who obliterate the field of experimentation and the exercise of the freedom
