This essay studies the many works mentioned by Primo Levi in his Opere. First of all we consider the works that the author was forced to do in order to survive in the Lager and on the return journey; then we talk about his two main professions, and therefore about the idea that Levi had about work: its nature and its social function. Finally, we consider the problem of human freedom in relation to work.
