Italian term or phrase: necessità cercata

One can explain that a binding that has emerged by selection is no longer Open for disposition. One can then-as, for example, in the myth of love - derive the strength of the binding from the freedom of choice. But this only transfers the paradox of selective binding, of the necessità cercata, of arbitrary fatalism into a semantics that extols what should not be changed anyway.

necessità cercata, from Matteo Peregrini, Difesa del Savio in Corte, Macerata 1634.

Explanation:
