		Friedrich Nietzsche: Tutte le informazioni su Friedrich Nietzsche su Encyclopedia.it
		Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (Röchen, vicinanze di Lützen, 15 ottobre 1844 - Weimar, 25 agosto 1900) fu uno dei maggiori filosofi ottocenteschi che ebbe un'influenza imponente, articolata e controversa sul pensiero filosofico e politico del Novecento.
		Successivamente Nietzsche criticò i valori fondamentali della società (filosofia, cristianesimo e democrazia), giungendo alla negazione di qualsiasi principio trascendente ed all'affermazione del libero arbitrio come destino dell'uomo.

	Friedrich Nietzsche
		Nietzsche refers to this higher mode of being as "superhuman" (übermenschlich), and associates the doctrine of eternal recurrence -- a doctrine for only the healthiest who can love life in its entirety -- with this spiritual standpoint, in relation to which all-too-often downhearted, all-too-commonly-human attitudes stand as a mere bridge to be crossed and overcome.
		In the third essay, Nietzsche focusses upon the ascetic ideals typical of the social representatives of art, religion and philosophy, and he offers a particularly scathing critique of the priesthood: the priests are allegedly a group of weak people who shepherd even weaker people as a way to experience power for themselves.
		Nietzsche became especially influential in French philosophical circles during the 1960's-1980's, when his "God is dead" declaration, his perspectivism, and his emphasis upon power as the real motivator and explanation for people's actions revealed new ways to challenge established authority and launch effective social critique.

	Friedrich Nietzsche - Free Encyclopedia of Thelema
		Nietzsche's concept of the Übermensch, often mistaken for a biological "breeding" upwards towards the "higher man", is indirectly addressed in biological interpretations of human history, such as Dr. Elmer Pendell's Why Civilizations Self-Destruct or Oswald Spengler's The Decline of the West.
		Nietzsche's sister Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche's heavily edited Nietzsche's work in order to promote him as a proto-Nazi thinker (she was herself an ardent German nationalist and pro-Nazi); this bastardization was largely to blame for Nietzsche being associated in the 1930s with the Nazis, who primarily took Elisabeth's deliberately misconstrued versions of his works as their source.
		Nietzsche is important as a precursor of 20th century-existentialism and an inspiration for post-structuralism and an influence on postmodernism.

	Madison (background) - Coping with Nietzsche's Legacy: Rorty, Derrida, Gadamer
		Whether or not Nietzsche actually succeeded in "overcoming metaphysics"--by means of his inventive myths, his "fictions," of the Will to Power, the Uebermensch, and the Eternal Return--or whether, as Heidegger would have had it, he was simply the "last of the metaphysicians," his own "last man" in effect, is a question still awaiting an answer.
		Nietzsche's word about the "death of God" seems to have been the liberating news he had been awaiting throughout all of the years of his exile in the arid waste lands of analytic philosophy.
		If "reality" was, as Nietzsche would say, one of our longest and most tenacious of illusions, so also, accordingly, was the notion of "science" or "knowledge." "Knowledge," we now know, is but an honorific name for a certain kind of socially sanctioned narration and story-telling.

	Nietzsche: The Problem of Autumn, photo feature from The Good European by Krell and Bates
		Friedrich Nietzsche was acutely sensitive to place: to the taste of sea air, to the sweep of wind across the coast, to the narrow confines of medieval walls or the tumbling breadth of an Alpine vista framed by the window near his writing desk.
		Nietzsche also was thrilled by the beauty of Recoaro Terme, in the Dolomites of the South Tyrol [11], and he loved the simple elegance of the Albergo Tre Garofani ("The Three Carnations") [12] [13] [14], where he resided for a time with Heinrich Köselitz.
		One of the reasons Nietzsche chose Turin as his ultimate solution to the problem of autumn was its even pavements of fl granite [26], which he could navigate without the aid of vision.
