What good is a book AN INDEX OF JOY Every great human being exerts a retroactive force: for his sake all of history is placed in the balance again, and a thousand secrets of the past crawl out of their hiding places—into his sunshine. There is no way of telling what may yet become part of history. Perhaps the past is still essentially undiscovered!

The dissertation will look at the idea in several ways to elucidate the depth and complexity of the idea. First, it will be looked at through its evolution, as it began as an idea early in Nietzsche’s career and reached its full complexity at the end of his career with the planned publication of his Revaluation of All Values, just before the onset of his madness. Several questions will be explored: What is the nature of the revaluator who is supposed to be instrumental in the process of revaluation? What will the values after the revaluation be like (a rebirth of ancient values or creation of entirely new values)? What will be the scope of the revaluation? And what is the relation of other major ideas of Nietzsche’s (will to power, eternal return, overman, and amor fati) to the revaluation? Different answers to these questions will be explored.

  • Nietzsche and Amor Fati
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by University of Essex Research Repository 1 [DRAFT: THIS VERSION MAY DIFFER IN MINOR WAYS FROM THE PUBLISHED VERSION (FORTHCOMING IN THE EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF PHILOSOPHY), IN WHICH CASE THE LATTER SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS AUTHORITATIVE] Nietzsche and Amor Fati Béatrice Han-Pile To the Memory of Mark Sacks Abstract: This paper identifies two central paradoxes threatening the notion of amor fati [love of fate]: it requires us to love a potentially repellent object (as fate entails significant negativity for us) and this, in the knowledge that our love will not modify our fate. Thus such love may seem impossible or pointless. I analyse the distinction between two different sorts of love (eros and agape) and the type of valuation they involve (in the first case, the object is loved because we value it; in the second, we value the object because we love it). I use this as a lens to interpret Nietzsche’s cryptic pronouncements on amor fati and show that while an erotic reading is, up to a point, plausible, an agapic interpretation is preferable both for its own sake and because it allows for a resolution of the paradoxes initially identified. In doing so, I clarify the relation of amor fati to the eternal return on the one hand, and to Nietzsche’s autobiographical remarks about suffering on the other. Finally, I examine a set of objections pertaining both to the sustainability and limits of amor fati, and to its status as an ideal. There is no doubt that Nietzsche considered the theme of amor fati [love of fate] of essential importance: he referred to it in his later work as his ‘formula for greatness in a human being’ (EH: 258), ‘the highest state a philosopher can attain’ (WP 1041), or again his ‘inmost nature’ (EH: 325).

When Silenus at last fell into his hands, the king asked what was the best and most desirable of all things for man. Fixed and immovable, the demigod said not a word, till at last, urged by the king, he gave a shrill laugh and broke out into these words: "Oh, wretched ephemeral race, children of chance and misery, why do you compel me to tell you what it would be most expedient for you not to hear? What is best of all is utterly beyond your reach: not to be born, not to be, to be nothing.

  • Nietzsche's Die Dionysische Weltanschauung
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Nietzsche’s Die dionysische Weltanschauung: Faith and Nihilism Part Two Nietzsche’s “Dionysian worldview” as an existentialist interpretation of meaning and purpose in reaction to the growing trend of Nihilism at the end of the 19th century Crane ROHRBACH A consequence of the Industrial Revolution in Europe was the focus on science and rationality in conditioning man’s relationship to the world, in creating a new identifying statute of culture with science, that the world of human life was the product of human action. It determined new principles of intellectual freedom for an eager desire to follow whatever ideas they brought forth and follow them wherever they led, even if they transgressed against the constraints of social and religious orthodoxies. Nietzsche examined premises of established ideas, re-examined them, relative to the social atmo- sphere of the dominance of the scientific status. But unlike Schopenhauer’s bleak skepticism of man’s historicism and scientism, Nietzsche sought to find some forms of affirmation for life despite the growing predominance of nihilism in western culture, that which Schopenhauer’s criticicism of historicism in his Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung expresses: that the history of man is superfluous to the essence of reality. — 43 — “A real philosophy of history [i.e., Humanity’s truth in reality] …consists, therefore, not in elevating the temporary aims of men into something eternal and absolute, and in constructing artificially and in imagination their advance to it through all complexities; but in the insight that history, not only in its execution but already in its essence, is mendacious….

  • Amor Fati: Love Thyself by Becoming What You Are! Nietzsche on the Freedom of the Will
    Romanian Review of Social Sciences Vol. 7 (2017), No.13 rrss.univnt.ro AMOR FATI: LOVE THYSELF BY BECOMING WHAT YOU ARE! NIETZSCHE ON THE FREEDOM OF THE WILL Mihai NOVAC Lecturer, PHD, Nicolae Titulescu University – Bucharest ([email protected]) Abstract Nietzsche’s distinction between the master and the slave moralities is certainly one of his most notoriously famous moral and political notions. To claim that there are two main perspectives on the world, one belonging to the accomplished, the other to the unaccomplished side of humanity and, moreover, that the last two millennia of European alleged cultural progress constitute, in fact, nothing more than the history of the progressive permeation of our entire Weltanschauung, of our very values, thoughts and feelings by the so called slave morality, while all the more finding the virtue of this process in a future self-demise of this entire decadent cultural and human strain, is something that has shocked and enraged most of the ideological philosophers ever since. As such, at a certain moment, despite their substantial doctrinaire differences, almost everybody in the ideologized philosophical world, would agree on hating Nietzsche: he was hated by the Christians, for claiming that “God is dead”, by the socialists for treating their view as herd or slave mentality and denying the alleged progressively rational structure of the world, by the liberals much on the same accounts, by the ‘right wingers’ for his explicit anti-nationalism, by the anarchists for his ontological anti-individualism (i.e. dividualism), by the collectivists for his mockery of any gregarious existence, by the capitalists for his contempt for money and the mercantile worldview, by the positivists for his late mistrust in science and explicit illusionism (i.e.

  • Amor Fati 2.Indd
    Nietzsche’s Amor Fati: The Embracing of an Undecided Fate by Friedrich Ulfers and Mark Daniel Cohen published by The Nietzsche Circle, June 2007 AmorNietzsche’s fati The Embracing of an Undecided Fate by Friedrich Ulfers and Mark Daniel Cohen 1 Nietzsche’s Amor Fati here is in Nietzsche an unequivocal affirmation of life, and it would be Tprecisely wrong to say, “notwithstanding the equivocality that he injects into his every assertion,” for there is nothing in Nietzsche that withstands his equivocality. Yet, it speaks to the essence of Nietzsche’s posture to observe that there is nothing diffident or less than forthright in his work—he makes assertions, enormously complex assertions, and they are clearly intended to be taken as asserted. Nietzsche means what he says. It is his saying that bears the complexity in its method, which practices the undermining and enhancing of inherited terminology and philosophical principles, often in ploys of overt contradiction, to propose what is unequivocally meant. One must follow him in his every move, through each verbal gambit, to get at a meaning that always constitutes straight answers to straight questions, at a meaning that presumably requires the richness of literary strategy, of complicated saying, to be formulated at all. The idea dissolves without the verbal underpinning. It evaporates in the absence of his statement. It is so subtle, even as it is so clear and unequivocal once grasped. In short, nothing in Nietzsche goes without saying. One could be clever and say merely that, with Nietzsche, his very equivocality is itself equivocal, and it would be right to say so.

  • Viiinietzsche, Amor Fati and the Gay Science
    Meeting of the Aristotelian Society held at Senate House, University of London, on 21 January 2013 at 5:30 p.m. VIII—NIETZSCHE, AMOR FATI AND THE GAY SCIENCE TOM STERN Amor fati—the love of fate—is one of many Nietzschean terms which seem to point towards a positive ethics, but which appear infrequently and are seldom defined. On a traditional understanding, Nietzsche is asking us to love whatever it is that happens to have happened to us—including (and perhaps especially) all sorts of horrible things. My paper analyses amor fati by looking closely at Nietzsche’s most sustained discussion of the concept—in book four of The Gay Science—and at closely related passag- es in that book. I argue that by ignoring the context in which Nietzsche writes about amor fati in The Gay Science, we are liable to ignore several exegetical and philosophical problems with the traditional understanding of the term. I’ll argue for a different interpretation which locates Nietzsche’s amor fati within the philosophical project of The Gay Science and which copes better with the objections that plague the traditional view. I The Trouble with Amor Fati. There are horrible things about our lives which we are powerless to change. Plenty of us think those things should be met, where possible, with dignity or even serenity. Indeed, perhaps the most fearful things are fearful precisely because they cannot be met with dignity or serenity; I am thinking, for ex- ample, of certain kinds of mental deterioration. But, according to most readers, Nietzsche’s concept of amor fati demands something more: we should not merely accept, but love the terrible things that befall us.

Section II: The Encounter between Strindberg and Nietzsche Chapter 4: The Impossibility of Influence or How the Story Has Been Told The significance of this encounter between Nietzsche and Strindberg falls along the fault lines of contemporary theoretical discourse. Questions concerning modernity and particularly the collision between religious and secular discourse emerge when we examine aspects of Strindberg’s protean production through the prism of Nietzsche’s thought. The prob- lem of what it means to be a being in the flow of time is highlighted in the two men’s work by the collision between two distinct ways of experienc- ing time: a linear, eschatological temporal construction and a circular, subjective experience of chronology. This collision expresses a modern, tragic view of existence. An understanding of tragedy refracted through a modernist lens shows itself to be the cornerstone of Nietzsche’s philoso- phy and the basis for Strindberg’s understanding of the self. While the importance of the relationship between Nietzsche and Strindberg has elicited some interest, there is no comprehensive inquiry into the confluence of these aspects of their thought.
