Metamorphoses of the Absolute - Volume 1

This collection of essays is devoted to the diversity of the conceptual and terminological definitions of the notion of the 'absolute'.

Absolute comprises both the concepts of the Western world related to God and the verbal constructions flowing from these ideas in the spheres of law, philosophy, linguistics, politics, medicine, literature, and arts.

Over time, absolute and its neologisms have undergone various modifications, assuming the associated characteristics of syntactic ambiguity and inflation.

Absolute can imply an increase in the degree of a quality attached to some object or phenomenon and can be used as either an adverbial modifier or a proper noun.

In its appearances as a procedural term, absolute mostly conveys a negative connotation when evaluating some action.
