Notes and Discussions Nietzsche and Aestheticism 1o Alexander Nehamas's Nietzsche: L~fe as Literature' has enjoyed an enthusiastic reception since its publication in 1985 . Reviewed in a wide array of scholarly journals and even in the popular press, the book has won praise nearly everywhere and has already earned for Nehamas--at least in the intellectual community at large--the reputation as the preeminent American Nietzsche scholar. At least two features of the book may help explain this phenomenon. First, Nehamas's Nietzsche is an imaginative synthesis of several important currents in recent Nietzsche commentary, reflecting the influence of writers like Jacques Der- rida, Sarah Kofman, Paul De Man, and Richard Rorty. These authors figure, often by name, throughout Nehamas's book; and it is perhaps Nehamas's most important achievement to have offered a reading of Nietzsche that incorporates the insights of these writers while surpassing them all in the philosophical ingenuity with which this style of interpreting Nietzsche is developed. The high profile that many of these thinkers now enjoy on the intellectual landscape accounts in part for the reception accorded the "Nietzsche" they so deeply influenced.

  • Nietzsche's Epistemic Perspectivism
    Chapter 2 Nietzsche’s Epistemic Perspectivism Steven D. Hales Abstract Nietzsche offers a positive epistemology, and those who interpret him as a skeptic or a mere pragmatist are mistaken. Instead he supports what he calls per- spectivism. This is a familiar take on Nietzsche, as perspectivism has been analyzed by many previous interpreters. The present paper presents a sketch of the textually best supported and logically most consistent treatment of perspectivism as a first- order epistemic theory. What’s original in the present paper is an argument that Nietzsche also offers a second-order methodological perspectivism aimed at enhancing understanding, an epistemic state distinct from knowledge. Just as Descartes considers and rejects radical skepticism while at the same time adopting methodological skepticism, one could consistently reject perspectivism as a theory of knowledge while accepting it as contributing to our understanding. It is argued that Nietzsche’s perspectivism is in fact two-tiered: knowledge is perspectival because truth itself is, and in addition there is a methodological perspectivism in which distinct ways of knowing are utilized to produce understanding. A review of the manner in which understanding is conceptualized in contemporary epistemol- ogy and philosophy of science serves to illuminate how Nietzsche was tackling these ideas. Keywords Nietzsche · Perspectivism · Understanding · Knowledge 2.1 Introduction In this paper I will argue that Nietzsche offers a positive epistemology, and that those who interpret him as a sceptic or a mere pragmatist are mistaken. Instead he supports what he calls perspectivism. So far this is not a new take on Nietzsche, as perspectivism has been analyzed by many previous interpreters.

  • Liberal Democracy and the Prospect of Truth
    This is how we drink up the sea: Liberal democracy and the prospect of truth NATALIA BEGHIN Abstract I begin my paper by deconstructing Nietzsche’s two distinct theories of truth—Perspectivism and Interpretationism—and the ways in which they differ from one another. I then suggest that by conceiving modern politics to mean liberal democracy, it follows that there are a number of critiques that Interpretationist truth has to bear on the institution. With this synthesis, I argue that rather than posing any danger to modern politics, liberal democracy is endangered only to the extent that it ignores Nietzschean theory and its ramifications for both the political institution and individuals in society. In particular, I suggest that there is a role for philosophy, theory, culture and art to ‘interrupt’ liberal democracy, and in so doing regenerate its capacity for creativity, guard against its habit of static domination, and frustrate its tendency toward deindividuation such that institutions and individuals can attain existential and material freedom. My conclusion supports the notion that a positive understanding of nihilistic philosophy is credible, and could be constructively employed to enrich the political experience if actors chose to embrace it. Is Dumbo the Übermensch? In 1941, Disney released Dumbo, its fourth technicolour animation, to great acclaim. Dumbo is about a circus elephant that is teased for his protruding ears, but tricked into believing he can fly by way of holding a ‘magic’ crow feather in his trunk. When Dumbo is called on to save the circus, he realises he has misplaced his feather, and refuses to face danger in the belief that his ability to soar was contingent on its magical powers.

  • Revolt Against Schopenhauer and Wagner? 177
    Revolt against Schopenhauer and Wagner? 177 Revolt against Schopenhauer and Wagner? An Insight into Nietzsche’s Perspectivist Aesthetics MARGUS VIHALEM The article focuses on the basic assumptions of Nietzschean aesthetics, arguing that Nietzsche’s aesthetics in his later period cannot be thoroughly understood outside of the context of the long-term conflict with romanticist ideals and without considering Arthur Schopenhauer’s and Richard Wagner’s aesthetic and metaphysical positions. Nietzsche’s thinking on art and aesthetics is in fact inseparable from his philosophical standpoint, which complements and renders explicit the hidden meaning of his considerations on art. The article pays particular attention to Nietzsche’s writings on Wagner and Wagnerism and attempts to show that the ideas expressed in these writings form the very basis of Nietzschean aesthetics and, to some extent, had a remarkable impact on his whole philosophy. The article also argues that Nietzsche’s aesthetics may even be regarded, to a certain extent, as the cornerstone of his philosophical project. Only aesthetically can the world be justified. – Friedrich Nietzsche1 I The background: Christianity, romanticism and Schopenhauer Nietzsche undoubtedly stands as one of the most prominent figures of the anti- romanticist philosophy of art in the late nineteenth century, opposing to the ro- manticist vision of the future founded on feebleness the classic vision of the fu- ture based on forcefulness and simple beauty.2 Nietzsche’s influence can be seen extensively in very different realms of twentieth-century philosophical thinking on art, from philosophical aesthetics to particular art procedures and techniques. The specific approach he endorsed concerning matters of art and aesthetics is by 1 F.

    CHAPTER EXTRACTS CONNECTING CHRIST BY DR. PAUL METZGER DISCUSSING JESUS IN A WORLD OF DIVERSE PATHS | CHAPTER 12-ATHEISM This is how to do apologetics in the 21st century. In Connecting Christ, Paul Metzger carries on a real dialogue with representatives from a wide variety of religions and worldviews. He listens and allows each to explain their views. And it is in the dialogue, and in the context of the relationship he has with these individuals, that Paul compassionately, but unflinchingly, points them to Jesus Christ. This book is unique, as is Paul’s approach to evangelism, yet it is bold and thoroughly biblical. It is apologetics done well in a diverse culture and pluralistic world.

  • Nietzsche on Suffering, Affirmation, and Modern Tragedy
    NIETZSCHE ON SUFFERING, AFFIRMATION, AND MODERN TRAGEDY ________________________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ________________________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy ________________________________________________________________________ by Mary Kate Brennan May 2019 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Kristin Gjesdal, Advisory Chair, Philosophy Dr. Susan Feagin, Philosophy Dr. Lara Ostaric, Philosophy Dr. Andrew Huddleston, External Member, Birkbeck, University of London Dr. Paul Kottman, External Member, The New School for Social Research © Copyright 2019 Mary Kate Brennan All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT From the point of view of philosophy of art, tragedy is deeply perplexing: On the one hand, it depicts events that are painful, depressing, and difficult to watch. On the other, it is a genre that has been continually replicated, revered, and even enjoyed since the ancient Greeks. Writers like Aeschylus, Sophocles, Shakespeare, Ibsen, and Beckett hold a place of high regard—they are authors of important works and worthy of our attention. In contemporary aesthetics, this problem is referred to as the paradox of tragedy. This, though, is not a new problem. Instead, philosophers since Aristotle have asked why we, the human species, create, seek out, contemplate, and take pleasure in tragedy. In my dissertation, I examine Nietzsche’s response to this problem in The Birth of Tragedy. His answer is as simple as it is subtle: tragedy is valuable because it allows us to affirm life. In his 1872 work, Nietzsche argues that tragedy was born out of the ancient Greek’s need to affirm life in the face of suffering. However, he is not entirely clear how, exactly, this affirmation is supposed to work.

  • Nietzsche on Art
    Nietzsche on Art Selections from Later Writings In Nietzsche’s later writings we continue to see the theme of the importance of art. Though no longer presented in the terms of The Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche continues to stress the healing capacity of art through the creation of beautiful illusions without which we could not live (what in The Birth of Tragedy was called the Apollinian art drive). Nietzsche will continue to refer to the Dionysian in many important passages in his very last writings, though what Nietzsche means by the Dionysian here is perhaps best understood not as what he characterized as Dionysian in The Birth of Tragedy but rather as the product of that miraculous coupling of Apollinian and Dionysian drives in the earlier text. In other words, the Dionysian in the later Nietzsche, Edvard Munch, 1906 writings seems to refer to what he regarded as the highest aim of art revealed in Greek tragedy—that transfiguration or metamorphosis in the artist which enables one to affirm life despite its tragic character. Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Nietzsche’s literary-philosophical masterpiece, is introduced (in the preceding work The Gay Science) as a tragedy. As the work does not have the classical form of a tragedy, it seems what Nietzsche must have meant in referring to it as a tragedy is that in it the author sought to achieve what he had identified as the highest aim of tragedy. The main theme of Thus Spoke Zarathustra is Zarathustra’s teaching concerning the overhuman (Übermensch), a teaching which concerns the further evolution or transfiguration of humanity.

NIETZSCHE ON REALISM IN ART AND THE ROLE OF ILLUSIONS IN LIFE- AFFIRMATION by MARIE KERGUELEN LE BLEVENNEC Under the Direction of Jessica Berry, PhD ABSTRACT In this paper, I investigate Nietzsche’s views about realism in art, and use the resulting textual evidence to explain the connection between realism, health and life-affirmation. First, I show that Nietzsche’s contrasting claims about artists like Flaubert and Stendhal reflect a distinction between two types of realism: the unhealthy realism of Flaubert, and the healthy realism of Stendhal. I then use this understanding of healthy realism in art to argue that for Nietzsche, healthy realism is vital for life-affirmation. Finally, I apply this evidence to a debate between Daniel Came and Bernard Reginster concerning whether Nietzsche thinks life- affirmation requires falsifying reality using illusions, especially artistic illusions, for the purpose of masking life’s terrible truths.
