Master Eckhart's metaphysics can be interpreted as a metaphysics of freedom. He doesn't understand freedom, however, as what comes about by fulfilment of the particulare being of man (esse proprium ), but as the contrary: What in a proper sense is the being of man (esse proprie), i.e. absolute being, comes about only insofar as man is not any more what he was as a creature. This is a conception which caracterizes any idealistic metaphysics, presenting essential analogies with post-Kantian systems and against which the bull In agro dominico (1329) reacted, mantaining a realistic metaphysical point of view.
