Bücher der Reihe Monographien und Texte zur Nietzsche-forschung

Nietzsche zeigt, dass die Sprache, wo immer sie Wirklichkeit abbildet, diese verfälscht. Diese Feststellung muss jedoch nicht mit einer Entwertung der Sprache einhergehen, sondern sie erlaubt vielmehr, deren schöpferisches Potenzial für das Erkennen freizulegen. Ein halbes Jahrhundert später findet man auch bei Adorno den Versuch, die Sprache während des Sturzes der Wahrheit und Erkenntnis verbürgenden Metaphysik dennoch als Darstellungsinstrument zu retten. Doch wie lässt sich die spezifische Darstellungsform einer Philosophie begreifen, die die Form selbst als Verfälschung ihres Inhalts begreift? Was ist die ,Form' kritischen Denkens? Das Buch untersucht ästhetische Konvergenzen zwischen zwei Denkern, die die philosophische Forschung üblicherweise auseinanderhält, da sie Nietzsches ,Perspektivismus' für unvereinbar mit Adornos ,Materialismus' hält. Die Autorin zeigt dagegen auf, wie entscheidend Nietzsche für die Prägung von Adornos Ästhetik ist ("Ich habe ihm am meisten zu verdanken, in Wahrheit vielleicht mehr noch als Hegel") und wie tief sich ihre Überlegungen entlang dreier Themenkreise verweben: Sprachkritik, Musik und Stil. Das Buch unternimmt es auf diese Weise, eine Tradition der ästhetischen Form zu rekonstruieren, die dem logischen Positivismus der Sprachphilosophien des 20. Jahrhunderts gegenübersteht.

"e;It is not for nothing that one has been a philologist, perhaps one is a philologist still!"e; - Throughout his work, Nietzsche has paid numerous tributes to philological scholarship. On the basis of a wide variety of sources, this study undertakes to demonstrate the deep impact of the historical-critical philology in which he had been trained. Nietzsche did not abandon philology in favour of philosophy but openly acknowledged his debt to its methods, especially in his later writings. This insight contributes to a reassessment of central concepts like text, genealogy, interpretation, or perspectivism, and it leads to a rejection of standard accounts in the theory of interpretation as well as in the history of scholarship. The book pleads for literary scholarship grounded in sceptical philology.

This treatment is the first to comprehensively address the issue of where Nietzsche stands in relation to environment, and it will contribute to the 'greening' of Nietzsche. Using a philological method Del Caro reveals the ecumenical Nietzsche whose doctrines are strategies for responsible and creative partnership between humans and earth.

Vinod Acharya presents a new existential interpretation of Nietzsche's philosophy. He contends that Nietzsche's peculiar form of existentialism can be understood only by undertaking a thorough analysis of his characterization and critique of metaphysics. This reading remedies the shortcomings of previous existential interpretations of Nietzsche, which typically view existentialism as concerned primarily with the meaning of individual existence, and therefore necessarily at odds with the abstraction and objectivity of metaphysical thought. Acharya argues that the approach of Nietzsche's philosophy, especially in his mature works, is to make the typical existential position foundational, and then to develop to the fullest the implications of this position. This meta-existential approach necessarily yields an ambiguous and open-ended critique of metaphysics. Taking issue with the Heideggerian, the poststructuralist, and the naturalistic interpretations, this book contends that Nietzsche neither simply overcomes metaphysics nor remains trapped within its confines. Acharya argues that an ever-renewed encounter with and critique of metaphysics is an essential aspect of Nietzsche's meta-existentialism.

Proceedings of the Griefswald Research Conference, in September 1995, which examined Nietzsche's effect on Jewish intellectuals.

This book argues that Nietzsche bases his affirmative morality on the model of individual responsiveness to otherness which he takes from the mythology of Dionysus. The subject is not free to choose to avoid such responding to the demands of the other. Nietzsche finds that the basic mode of responding is pleasure. This feeling, as a basis for morality, underlies the morality which is true to the earth and the major concepts of "e;will to power"e;, "e;eternal return"e;, and "e;amor fati"e;. The priority of otherness makes all thought ethical and not only aesthetic. The basis of all meanings combines the fundamental impulse of responding outwards with an immediate complement in the individual interpretation-world. This is specifically ethical because the recognition of our own historical specificity arises as a result of the refusal of others to become mere differences within our notion of the Same, and through their demand that we "e;become who we are"e; in the recognition of their separate existence.

In this text, the author takes issue with the contention that Nietzsche was a precursor of Nazi ideology: Nietzsche sees race and breeding rather as a cultivation, meaning the development of European peoples and people to supranational Europeans.

Friedrich Nietzsche understood himself to be the great adversary of Christianity. This study shows that a considered examination of Nietzsche's interpretation of Paul is theologically and philosophically fruitful despite (and even because of) its polemics.

Herder und Nietzsche werden bis heute oft nicht als ernstzunehmende Philosophen wahrgenommen. Ihr bewusst nicht-systematisches Denken lässt sie vorgeblichals bloße Schriftsteller, Dichter, Prediger, Moralisten erscheinen und von ihnen keinen maßgeblichen Beitrag zur philosophischen Forschung erwarten. Inzwischen hat sich das Selbstverständnis des Philosophierens geändert, und zu dieser Änderung haben sie, wie diese Arbeit zeigt, maßgeblich beigetragen. Sie haben die Philosophie selbst aufgrund ihrer natürlichen, moralischen und religiösen Bindungen skeptisch in Frage gestellt: Sie beschreiben den Menschen von Grund auf neu vom natürlichen Ursprung seiner Sprache her, so dass sein Denken nicht auf eine rein geistige Operation reduziert werden kann. Wo Herder noch von religiösem Vertrauen getragen ist, bezieht Nietzsche in seine Genealogisierung auch das genealogisierende Subjekt mit ein. Beide, Herder und Nietzsche, verstehen die Wahrheit pragmatisch. Pragmatisch ist auch ihre Betrachtung der Historie, die dem Leben dienen soll. Wie sie das kann, hängt von der Reflexion darüber ab, wie der Mensch, die Kultur, die Geschichte und die Gesellschaft bestimmt werden, um Orientierung geben zu können. Herder und Nietzsche machen misstrauisch gegen Ideologien und Prophezeiungen. Will Herder nach den aufklärerischen rationalistischen Verunsicherungen wieder Mut zum christlichen Glauben machen, so kann in der Dialektik der Aufklärung nach Nietzsche das Individuum letztlich Sicherheit nur aus sich selbst gewinnen.

A study of Nietzsche's philosophical and aesthetic way of life from "Dawn" and also "Thus Spoke Zarathustra", as summed up in the phrase "the passion of knowledge", Nietzche's design for a synthesis of passion and learning as a new philosophical way of life.

Im Fruhwerk Nietzsches kann das Phanomen Rhythmus als eine anthropologische Technik verstanden werden, asthetischen Strukturen unter den Bedingungen der Zeitlichkeit Dauer zu verschaffen. Wenn Nietzsche die Erscheinungsformen antiker und moderner Kultur veranschaulicht und kritisiert, so ist es der Leitfaden des Rhythmus, anhand dessen er ihre jeweilige kulturelle Kompetenz beurteilt, den Menschen als temporales Wesen im und gegen den Fluss der Zeit zu behaupten. Dabei zeigt sich, dass Nietzsche Antike und Gegenwart von ihren spezifischen Ausgangsbedingungen her grundlegend unterscheidet und anhand dieser Gegenuberstellung seine Kritik der zeitgenossischen Anthropologie, Wissenschaft und Asthetik profiliert. In zwei Schritten, einem ersten Kapitel zu Nietzsches Sichtweise der antiken Rhythmik und einem zweiten zu seinem Blick auf rhythmische Erscheinungsformen zeitgenossischer Kultur, unternimmt es die vorliegende Studie, seine asthetische Anthropologie des Rhythmus im Spannungsfeld von Antikerezeption und Modernekritik zu entfalten.

Enrico Muller legt die erste philosophische Gesamtdarstellung zur Bedeutung der Griechen fur Nietzsches Denken vor. Er zeigt, wie sich in Auseinandersetzung mit der attischen Tragodie, der griechischen Kultur und den Vorsokratikern Nietzsches eigene Philosophie entwickelte, und problematisiert deren Abgrenzungen von der Logosphilosophie der griechischen Klassik. In der Interpretation des spannungsvollen Verhaltnisses Nietzsches zu Sokrates und Platon kommt Muller zu dem Schluss, dass auch Nietzsches eigene Philosophie letztlich auf die Vorgaben der sokratisch-platonischen Dialektik angewiesen bleibt. Unter Bezugnahme auf die zeitgenossische grazistische und althistorische Forschung wird eine erstaunliche Modernitat der Ansatze Nietzsches sichtbar.

Taking issue with biographical interpretations of Nietzsche, this book shows that Nietzsche's critique of religion cannot be understood from the negative experiences of his religious socialisation. It presents a survey of the theoretical bases of Nietzsche's critique of religion and develops the direction of his religious philosophy from these.

Nietzsche's philosophy is a philosophy of lightness, a lightness which doesn't consist in breaking with gravity but in controlling it: being light is being able to take charge of life, ie bearing and loving it, wanting it.This book is first devoted to Greek lightness for Nietzsche finds in Ancient Greece the pattern for an alleviation which enables to unload one's drives without denying oneself. The study of Greek culture is thus the starting point of a close analysis of the "e;human, all-too-human"e; things, ie an inquiry whose orientation is definitely antimetaphysical, ie antiplatonic, antischopenhauerian and antiwagnerian: Nietzsche first shows that alleviation in religion has a "e;double face"e;: on the one hand, religion makes man's heart heavy with sinfulness; on the other hand it lightens it with the fiction of a merciful God. True alleviation thus consists in freeing oneself from religious lightening, and proclaiming the radical innocence of everything. Nietzsche also criticizes alleviation in art, ie a romantic alleviation. He shows that - like alleviation in religion - it requires a previous heaviness. Therefore he praises a classical art and an aesthetic of lightness. Nietzsche eventually focuses on a philosophical alleviation of life, defined as a freeing of spirit. Such a definition leads him to develop the "e;doctrine of the closest things"e;, which consist of the organization of a dietary alleviation of life.
