A Philosophically Appealing Nietzschean Theory of Value

Pires de Oliveira Dias, Gustavo 01 January 2016 (has links)
This thesis is an attempt to bring forth a novel and philosophically appealing reading of Nietzsche, especially as it pertains to his theory of value. I define philosophically appealing as the view with the least amount of inconsistencies that still reaches a simple and logical conclusion. I explore questions regarding Nietzsche’s nihilism, his normative and metaphysical claims, as well as his view on human nature. I aim to satisfy sophisticated readers by investigating complex philosophical issues related to my interpretation of Nietzsche. I also aim to satisfy less sophisticated readers by explaining how my view is applicable, and beneficial, to one’s life. Given that there’s no widespread agreement as to what reading of Nietzsche is correct, the goal of my thesis is to contribute meaningfully to this ongoing debate.

Friedrich Nietzsches Moralkritik

Choi, Soon-Young 11 February 2002 (has links)
Meine Doktorarbeit behandelt hauptsächlich den todfeindlichen Kampf zwischen Nietzsches Philosophie und Jesus Lehre, im Nietzsches Worte, Judda gegen Rom, Rom gegen Judda. Ich habe versucht, die Quelle dieses Kampfes begrifflich zu erklären. Dafür habe ich den Begriff 'Inkompatibilität' verwendet und ich habe auch versucht, den scheinbaren Widerspruch der Begriffe von Nietzsche zu erklären, z. B., die Kritik an Willensfreiheit und die Freiheit des freien Geistes, der scheinbare Widerspruch zwischen Wille zur Macht und ewiger Wiederkehr des Gleichen und die begriffliche Beziehung zwischen Philosophie und Wissenschaft. Man kann nur einen Standpunkt von Judda gegen Rom haben, weil dieser Kampf keinen Kompromiß erlaubt. / My PhD thesis treat mainly deadly battle between Nietzschean philosophy and christian doctrine, in Nietzschean concept, Jew against Rome, Rome against Jew. The source of this battle has been conceptually explained. The incompatibility describes the source of that deadly battle. The seeming inconsistency of Nietzschean concepts has been explained on entire context of Nietzschean philosophy, for example, the critique of the freedom of will and the freedom of free spirit, the seeming contradiction between will to power and eternal recurrence and conceptual relationship between philosophy and science. Just one standpoint can be chosen between Jew against Rome, because this battle doesn't allow any compromise between them.

Godot is Dead : Nietzsche and Beckett on Salvation and Suffering in a Godless Universe

Valsson, Jökull January 2012 (has links)
There are many parallels and points of similarity between the themes of the play Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett and the themes explored by Friedrich Nietzsche. This essay examines the play in light of some of Nietzsche’s key concepts, such as the Will to Power, the Übermensch or Overman, the Eternal Recurrence, as well as the aesthetic conception of existence. The essay argues that while Waiting for Godot shares many of the premises and conclusions of Nietzsche’s philosophy, the play can also be interpreted as a critique of the same. The play presents a post-religious world marked by pessimism and resignation rather than affirmation and Nietzschean amor fati. The characters are as far removed from the heroic Overman ideal as can be imagined, unable to harness the Will to Power, which is absent or distorted or even unknowable. Communication is fraught with difficulty and uncertainty. The dynamic of the Eternal Recurrence is present but rather than being affirmed it is a source of crushing boredom, tediousness and existential angst. The characters are unable to embrace the Eternal Recurrence and are in a continual state of mental flight from its implications. They suffer from a vague recollection of the past while projecting their hopes into the future in order to diminish the unbearable suffering of the existing present, or state of perpetual becoming. Beckett can thus be said to be offering a satirical critique of the concept of salvation, both in its traditional religious sense as well as in the sense implied by Nietzsche’s concept of the Eternal Recurrence. However, Beckett does offer a sense of hope by suggesting, paradoxically, that the abandonment of hope of salvation may lead to a sort of salvation of resignation.

Att övervinna det mänskliga : En läsning av återkomsttanken i Nietzsches Så talade Zarathustra i ljuset av Heideggers kritik

Akca, Uljana January 2010 (has links)
The aim of this essay is to discuss the meaning of the human and its possible overcoming in Friedrich Nietzsche’s doctrine of the eternal recurrence of the same, with Martin Heidegger’s readings of Nietzsche as point of departure. According to Heidegger, Nietzsche’s doctrine of the eternal recurrence of the same represents the end of occidental metaphysical thinking. The thought concludes a thinking of being as the presence of beings, where the original question of being was never developed out of its own ground. But at the heart of this interpretation, often considered “violent”, lies the question of whether man is able to think being out of his finitude. This is the question I will unfold, through a reading of Nietzsche’s thought of the eternal recurrence of the same, as it is presented in his Thus spoke Zarathustra, as an attempt to think beings in their being beyond a “humanization” of them, expressed in transcendental aims, purposes and categories. This attempt, I argue, is essentially bound up with a comportment toward the human self as the finite and the corporal. In this sense the human being in its finitude and corporeality is thefocus and the basis for the search for “the overman”. But this focus on man, as he who can overcome himself, is at the same time a focus that canbe said to lead man away from himself, in not asking the deeper question about what it means to be this human being. I will furthermore consider the tragic as the theme where this question of the overcoming of the human comes to the fore; the dionysic-tragic reveals both a view of man as the being that is mastered by the abyss that underlies this world, and therefore mastered by his finitude - and as the being who can master this same abyss, in thinking it as one with the human self. The purpose is not to take a position for or against Heidegger’s reading, but to develop a discussion between Heidegger and Nietzsche about the human self as always being both the closed and the open, and about the ways in which human thinking can approach this.

尼采生命哲學及其教育意涵之研究

鐘慧卿, Chung, Hwei-Ching Unknown Date (has links)
身為存在主義及後現代主義先驅之一的尼采,之所以對西方文明造成嚴重的衝擊,就在於他毫不留情的抨擊西方傳統的兩大支柱—蘇格拉底精神所代表的理性文明與基督教道德信仰的彼岸世界! 尼采認為人是「尚未定型的動物」,強調人的未完成性與可塑性,主張人並沒有一成不變的本質,每個人的本質端賴自己去創造。尼采不同於傳統哲學長期以來所重視的「理性人」,卻強調人的本能、情感對人的重要性,高唱戴奧尼索斯(Dionysus)頌歌。而在他心目中理想的人類圖像就是「超人」,其最重要的特色就在於「自我超越」,並將尼采的「強力意志」學說發揮地淋漓盡致。 尼采批評傳統二元論世界觀,認為只有我們生存的這個現實世界!這也正是尼采宣稱「上帝死了」所代表的劃時代意義。尼采的世界圖像是:一方面,只有我們所居住的這個世界;另一方面,受到赫拉克利特斯流變哲學的影響,尼采認為這個世界永遠地變化著,是個生成流變的世界、強力意志的世界:萬事萬物變化不居,這是世界原來的面貌,是與道德無關的,肯定「生成流變無罪」,同時因為萬物皆流,並不存在任何「確定性」,所有的價值、真理,因而也都不具有絕對支配性。同時,這也是個永恆回歸的世界。 尼采要人重估一切價值,而強力意志,或者更確切地說「生命」,正是作為衡量一切價值的新準繩,同時也是人們賴以重估價值的依據!所有價值、真理、知識,都要以「充實生命」為鵠的,都要展現每個人的強力意志。尼采認為佛教的出世觀、羅馬的極端世俗化,或是基督教的倫理生活、工業革命之後的科學生活,都無法克服人生的悲劇性,唯有透過藝術才是生命自救的途徑。他要人以「審美的人生」取代基督教的「倫理的人生」,因為基督教道德於生命為敵,使人的生命力衰退,於是他要我們向古希臘人看齊。 本文以「成為你自己」作為尼采教育目的,其核心概念就在於實現每個人的真摯性(authenticity)—評估自己的處境,並將一切價值化為己有!真摯性與以往哲學所強調的「自主性」(autonomy)最大的不同在於,自主性與理性有著密不可分的關係,真摯性卻是要實現完整的人,亦即全人! 在知識教育方面,尼采的「觀點主義」強調一切都是詮釋,所謂的事實、真理並不存在,一切都是主觀的建構。沒有所謂的純粹認識,所有的真理其實都蘊含著價值判斷。知識、真理、邏輯等概念,其實都是人類為了生存所必須的「有用的偽造」,是人類「無可非難的錯誤」。因此,知識教學要重視學生的主觀建構,要讓學生將知識賦予自己的意義,將知識「化為己有」。同時,知識的最終目的在於「充實生命」,知識應當為人生而服務,而不是使人成了「學奴」。 尼采一直強調人要不斷地自我超越,教育當然也要致力於此,舞蹈則象徵了此一教育目的。尼采以「舞者的美德」同嚴肅的精神相對立,認為舞者能輕盈地漫步於傳統之上,以自由自在的舞步踏碎舊有成規,並從傳統束縛中解放出來,從事創造!在舞蹈中,人不但展現了人性,呈現人類存在的意義;同時也整合了自己的身心、思想與行動,並透過自己的詮釋創造出自己的意義,象徵了全人教育。教育就應當使人獲得這種「舞於當下」的實踐智慧! 尼采生命哲學所描繪出的生命教育之目的,就是要使人獲得人生智慧。人誠然是個悲劇性的存有,尼采卻勉人:面對人生的悲劇性、熱愛生命、肯定生命,連同生命中的一切不幸與痛苦;人生的本質雖然是虛無的與痛苦的,可以藉由藝術的美化作用而獲得人生意義;甚至要學會「笑一切悲劇」。同時,既然生命是與道德無關的,那麼何妨做個非道德者,擺脫對於生命的道德詮釋,自由自在地悠遊於天地之間,好好地享受生命! 尼采生命哲學對當前教育的啟示有四點:(一)生命教育的重視;(二)教育鬆綁;(三)人文與科技的整合;(四)情意智慧的培養。

DECISIONS / DECISIONS

Vrba, Martin January 2017 (has links)
Presented work tries to reflect the structure of human world, which is able to create an overman as an artificial intelligence through its self-destructive tendency. It investigates the possibilities of our imagination and if we are able to think about artificial intelligence as a sui generis continuation of human species. Hand in hand it tries to create a tension between particular ethico-political decisions and subsequent binding structure, which they implies.
