Italian term or phrase: Questioni prime e ultime
Bonjour à tous, l'expression se trouve dans le contexte suivant :

"Quale altro compito per l'arte, oggi, se non confrontarsi con le questioni prime e ultime?"

Pensez-vous que "questions essentielles" suffirait ?
Merci pour vos contributions.

les seules et uniques questions essentielles


Explanation:
si "essentielles " peut sembler insuffisant " seules et uniques " devrait renforcer le concept ....

Asker: Merci pour votre proposition. J'hésite et je cherche encore. J'ai peur que ce soit un peu redondant. Le "ultime" donne une idée de temps, les questions qui se poseront toujours... Je vais voir. Merci en tout cas.
