Summary/Abstract: In a vivid and philosophical dialogue, structured into initiation days, a Subject, in despair over the loss of his shadow, an allegory of the Inner Self, embarks on a quest to recover it. Through various encounters, the Innermost is redefined in turn. Why, in our post-modern societies, do we suffer from skiatomy, the loss of the Inner Self? Can this major concept, which undoubtedly depends more on Being than on Having, be saved by affectivity?
