title: [Life and freedom as a compulsion? Considerations of the relation of the phenomenology of life and analysis of existence].
abstract: The phenomenon of compulsion, unless it is seen as purely pathological, discloses in a peculiar way by an analysis of the situation in connexion with the immanence of life. Challenged by a given situation man must react immediately whereas the first origin of human existence is a state of passivity without any possible escapes. In so far freedom rests on a inevitableness, that reactualizes with every challenge by the daily situation. This "compulsion" to answer permits at the same time real freedom; for the clever and synthesic questions to life give way to the real tasks, that have to be settled at the moment.
