Narcissistic, idiosyncratic, hyperbolic, irreverent--never has a thinker been appropriated, deconstructed, and scrutinized by means of one of these disparate array of teams, routine, and colleges ofthought. loved by means of many for his passionate principles and iconoclastic sort, he's additionally vilified for his loss of rigor, obvious cruelty, and disdain for ethical decency.In residing with Nietzsche, Solomon means that we learn Nietzsche from a really various standpoint, as a provocative author who capacity to rework the way in which we view our lives. this implies taking Nietzsche in my view. instead of concentrate on the "true" Nietzsche or attempting to ensure "what Nietzschereally intended" via his probably random and sometimes contradictory pronouncements approximately "the vast Questions" of philosophy, Solomon reminds us that Nietzsche isn't a thinker of summary principles yet quite of the outstanding own perception, the provocative problem, the incisive own probe. He doesnot try and display the everlasting verities yet he does powerfully impact his readers, goading them to determine themselves in new and other ways. it truly is Nietzsche's compelling invitation to self-scrutiny that fascinates us, engages us, and publications us to a "rich internal life." eventually, Solomon argues,Nietzsche is an instance in addition to a promulgator of "passionate inwardness," a lifestyles exceptional via its wealthy passions, beautiful flavor, and a feeling of private splendor and excellence.

Sample text

Halverson does not bother to qualify or question the scope of the alleged fallacy, and in this we may take him to be providing us with the same old standard, traditional view. But he also gives us a particularly appropriate example: “Don’t waste your time studying the philosophy of Nietzsche. ” Halverson goes on to distinguish between abusive arguments, aimed at one’s character or arousing negative feelings against him on the part of the audience; circumstantial arguments, aimed at the context and therefore probable personal motivation; and tu quoque or “you too” arguments, which shift the focus from the accused to the accuser.

What could be more humiliating than an accusation against a morality that incessantly preaches against selfishness and self-interest that it, too, is in fact not only the product of impotent selfinterest, but hypocritical as well? And what could be a more effective argument against theism than ridiculing the ground from which such a belief has arisen? (“Historical refutation as the definitive refutation. ”) That humiliation, of course, is Nietzsche’s objective in his psychological guerrilla war against Christianity and Judeo-Christian bourgeois morality.

But also—and this is the critical point—such antagonistic arguments against the JudeoChristian tradition come from within that tradition. It is not a matter of ironic coincidence that Nietzsche’s father was a Lutheran minister and that  L IV IN G W IT H NI ET ZS C HE Nietzsche himself grew up thinking he was bound for the ministry. It is almost impossible to imagine Nietzsche’s rage (as well as his insider’s knowledge) if he were not attacking and trying to work his way out of his own childhood perspective.
