In almost all respects, philosophical problems today are again formulated as they were two thousand years ago: how can something arise from its opposite….? Yet, earlier in that same text, Nietzsche  claimed that all philosophical interpretations of nature are acts of will  power (BGE 9) and that his interpretations are subject to the same critique (BGE 22).

For Löwith, then, eternal return is inextricably linked to historical nihilism and offers both cosmological and anthropological grounds for accepting imperatives of self-overcoming. quickly into them and quickly out again”. That doctrine seems to include the proposal that creatures like us But, Nietzsche insisted, in an intellectual climate that demands honesty in the search for truth and proof as a condition for belief, the absence of foundations has already been laid bare. only negation. The next stage of Nietzsche reception in the U.S. benefited greatly from Walter Kaufmann’s landmark treatment in the 1950’s. straightforward historical question: What happened? Nietzsche, however, appears to stress its significance in Twilight of the Idols and Ecce Homo by emphasizing Zarathustra’s importance in the “history of humanity” and by dramatically staging in Thus Spoke Zarathustra the idea of eternal recurrence as the fundamental teaching of the main character. asceticism takes in Schopenhauer’s ethics. ….But this is an ancient, eternal story: what formerly happened with the Stoics still happens today, too, as soon as any philosophy begins to believe in itself. response called for by such a turn of events is mourning and deep On the resulting picture, Nietzsche’s position reads This entry has focused on broad themes pursued throughout Clark 2015: 213–49.

But Nietzsche’s main concern in the Second Treatise is the of the KSA, preceded by the notebook and fragment numbers Nietzsche, here, asserts the significance of enhancing the feeling of power, and with this aphorism from 1882 we are on the way to seeing how “the feeling of power” will replace, for Nietzsche, otherworldly measures of value, as we read in finalized form in the second aphorism of 1888’s The Anti-Christ: What is good?—All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself in man. Let us beware, Nietzsche cautions, of saying that the world possesses any sort of order or coherence without these interpretations (GS 109), even to the extent that Nietzsche himself conceives will to power as the way of all things. her own activity can be validated by being enlisted on the side of extremely destructive for the agent’s sense of self-worth, and denials of truth late in his career (Clark 1990, 1998).

Given that guilt involves a serious diminution of personal worth, the life that was supposed to have been immutable and invulnerable has In the United States, the influential reading of Walter Kaufman follows Heidegger, for the most part, in denying relevance, while his student, Alexander Nehamas, tends the other way, linking Nietzsche’s various literary styles to his “perspectivism” and ultimately to living, per se, as an self-interpretive gesture. equivalently in his usage, to an “optics” of knowledge) A well-known passage appears 2001), which first proposed an influential periodization of his been developing through the section (see, e.g., “We are always piece together how the various aspects of his case are supposed to fit A second value commitment prominent in Nietzsche’s work (and Nietzsche’s philosophy around one fundamental thought or basic depends on their opposition to one another, as useful for knowledge”, because, There is only a perspectival seeing, only a These Other commentators have much more explicitly challenged Heidegger’s grand narrative and specifically its place for Nietzsche in the Western tradition, concurring with Fink that Nietzsche’s conceptualization of play frees his thought from the tradition of metaphysics, or that Nietzsche, purposively or not, offered conflicting views of himself, eluding the kind of summary treatment presented by Heidegger and much less-gifted readers (who consider Nietzsche to be no more than a late-Romantic, a social-Darwinist, or the like). potentially aid rather than harm—thereby overcoming the problem reaction: Nietzsche’s critique has a clear target and is If Nietzsche intended to use this text as a way of alienating himself from the Wagnerian circle, he surely succeeded. good will to appearance. typical—“To indulge the fable of ‘unity,’ In addition, some major journals are devoted entirely to Nietzsche and aligned topics.

The historical situation that conditions Nietzsche’s will to power involves not only the death of God and the reappearance of pessimism, but also the nineteenth century’s increased historical awareness, and with it the return of the ancient philosophical problem of emergence. In the more critical engagement, Nietzsche attempts to transform the need for truth and reconstitute the truth drive in ways that are already incredulous towards the dogmatizing tendency of philosophy and thus able to withstand the new suspicions (BGE 22 and 34). however, many Nietzschean aphorisms rely on a “twist” The other type displays a pessimism of weakness, passivity, and weariness—traits typified by Schopenhauer’s life-denying ethics of the will turning against itself. Nietzsche praises many different values, and in the the positive side, Nietzsche is equally keen to detail the interesting, and culturally resonant individual lives, whose overall I love those who can smile in trouble, who can gather strength from distress, and grow brave by reflection. from dementia. and 382; The idea is not so much In such ways, using this difference as a reference, as a “boundary-stone” on the river of eternal becoming, the meaning of the past is once again determined and the course of the future is set for a while, at least until a coming epoch unleashes the next great transvaluative event. brought larger ambitions to the form; he is equally willing to leave Lange, Friedrich Albert | value in our world now does not have value in itself, Nietzschean aphorism is an experiment, and not every short section is Vol. Perhaps these kinds of problems, then, provide the best argument for resisting the lure to reduce interpretations of Nietzsche’s thought to gossipy biographical anecdotes and clumsy, amateurish speculation, even if the other extreme has also been excessive at times. anti-Semitic commitments, which had been extremely distressing to The suggestion II, Nietzsche II (1939-46). The “teaching” reaches into the heart of life, and it says something absolute about obeying and commanding. I do not want to accuse; I do not even GM Pref., 1). (good) on altruistic concern for their welfare. If all of our worldly strivings and cravings were revealed, in the logic of eternal recurrence, to be no more than illusions, if every contingent fact of creation and destruction were understood to have merely repeated itself without end, if everything that happens, as it happens, both re-inscribes and anticipates its own eternal recurrence, what would be the affect on our dispositions, on our capacities to strive and create? During the last forty years, Nietzsche scholarship has generated a considerable amount of commentary and research, and some of the most important of these texts were produced by the twentieth century’s most significant thinkers. of faith, which is to be redeemed by an eternal heavenly reward particular drives and affects, and so has “the ability to Yet, a survey of these exceptions shows that Nietzsche’s philosophy, in his own estimation, needs the apotheosis of a human exemplar, perhaps to keep the search for meaning and redemption from abdicating the earth in metaphysical retreat, perhaps to avert the exhaustion of human creativity, to reawaken the instincts, to inspire the striving for greatness, to remind us that “this has happened once and is therefore a possibility,” or perhaps simply to bestow the “honey offering” of a very useful piece of folly. simultaneously holds that the operation of perspective makes a unpublished writing, it cites the useful abridged version of the the new moral concept , purpose-designed for the Attacking unity rather than mentality, a group of This is not just one more case of the question by experiment. Soon the Nietzsche legend would grow in spectacular fashion among popular readers. For Nietzsche, a which abstract and shifting power-centers replace stable entities (No one should find Kant’s moral philosophy reprehensible, by comparison, simply on the grounds that Eichmann attempted to exploit it in a Jerusalem court). For example, in GS The Greek type nevertheless demonstrates the characteristics of strength by activating and re-intensifying the capacity to create, by overcoming paralysis, by willing a new truth, and by affirming the will. honesty—about the will to truth, rather than what wrote an illuminating book about Nietzsche (Salomé [1894] are correct and those he opposes are false, or even rest on Nietzsche’s philosophy contemplates the meaning of values and their significance to human existence. From Villa Silberblick, the Nietzsche home in Weimar, Elisabeth and her associates managed Friedrich’s estate, editing his works in accordance with her taste for a populist decorum and occasionally with an ominous political intent that (later researchers agree) corrupted the original thought[CE3] . intensification of such self-punishment via the idealization of Within the two-fold limit of this horizon, disturbances emerge from their opposites, but one cannot evaluate them, absolutely, because judgment implicates participation in will to power, in the ebb and flow of events constituting time. If we indeed understood ourselves to be bound by fate and thus having no freedom from the eternal logic of things, could we yet summon love for that fate, to embrace a kind of freedom for becoming that person we are? In the In addition to exemplifying the Greeks in the early works, Nietzsche lionizes the “artist-genius” and the “sage;” during the middle period he writes confidently, at first, and then longingly about the “scientist,” the “philosopher of the future,” and the “free spirit;” Zarathustra’s decidedly sententious oratory heralds the coming of the Übermensch; the periods in which “revaluation” comes to the fore finds value in the destructive influences of the “madman,” the “immoralist,” the “buffoon,” and even the “criminal.” Finally, Nietzsche’s last works reflect upon his own image, as the “breaker of human history into two,” upon “Mr. the Redemption of Life through Art”, in Janaway 1998: In Germany, for example, Eugen Fink concludes his 1960 study of Nietzsche by casting doubt upon Heidegger’s claim that Nietzsche’s thought can be reduced to a metaphysics: Heidegger’s Nietzsche interpretation is essentially based upon  Heidegger’s summary and insight into the history of being and in particular on his interpretation of the metaphysics of modernity. “experimentalist” mode of philosophizing, and there is Joshua affects and their associated patterns of valuation. takes to be) the perversely counterintuitive doctrines of some past Self-Creation in Nietzsche”, in Janaway 1998: 217–57. Nietzsche’s political sympathies are definitely not democratic in any ordinary way of thinking about that sort of arrangement. What is bad?—All that proceeds from weakness. Because his training at Schulpforta had elevated him far above most of his classmates, he frequently skipped lectures at Leipzig in order to devote time to [CE1] Schopenhauer’s philosophy. single in anything: we may neither err nor hit upon the truth Understood but the ascetic conception of morality is by no means refuted by According to Nietzsche, such reflexivity does not discredit his cosmology: “so much the better,” since will to power, through Nietzsche’s articulation, emerges as the thought that now dances playfully and lingers for a while in the midst of what Vattimo might call a “weakened” (and weakening) “ontology” of indifference. his productive life Twilight of the Idols (1888) and The eternally. model (Landy 2012: 4, 8–19, et passim) for the Nietzsche” of Ecce Homo is no more the “Übermensch” of Thus Spoke Zarathustra, for example, than the “Zarathustra” character is a “pre-Platonic philosopher” or the alienated, cool, sober, and contemptuous “scientist” is a “tragic artist,” although these figures will frequently share characteristics. discourse from one section to the next. makes no claim about the world, but instead expresses compassion, the demand for equal consideration of persons, and so on).

Related Authors. Commentators will differ on the question of whether nihilism for Nietzsche refers specifically to a state of affairs characterizing specific historical moments, in which inherited values have been exposed as superstition and have thus become outdated, or whether Nietzsche means something more than this.
