 Exquisite Corpse - Critical Urgencies
As we cross the non-existent borders of the Nietzschean regions, we find that we might explore the Nietzsche who is an anarchist, the Nietzsche who is not an anarchist, the Nietzsche who both is and is not an anarchist, and the Nietzsche who neither is nor is not an anarchist.
The question for Nietzschean Anarchy is who shall rule: either the masters of the state and of the market, with their heroic will to plunder and destroy, or the creators with their generous will to give birth, their gift-giving virtue.
We decide that it is the vast Nietzschean umbrella, which points to the heavens, to the heights, to the lightness of Dionysus, and which opens up to infinity.

 The Great Theoretical Difference Between the Psychotherapeutic, Existential Application of the
Hence, according to the Nietzschean doctrine, man is, by definition, a pure, blank slate, a child like entity who is empty from and free of ideologies, conventions and customs.
Man, according to the Nietzschean doctrine, is, therefore, responsible for his own existence and life and is free to design, determine and create himself and his ideologies freely in accordance with his own ideologies and with whom and what he desires for himself to become and be.
  The 'Nietzschean man' possesses the power and ability to choose and determine his ideologies and actions, who and what he wishes to become and be and strives to overcome all boundaries, to surpass himself, realise himself and become a powerful, authentic individual.

He COULD turn the Nietzschean OR the Bones over to the bad guys, who had offered to discuss the Commonwealth Charter and imho would have SIGNED IT, but you don't.
You very wisely figure out however that the Nietzschean is likely to take his cargo and run away, which is very likely to get him killed.
Instead of washing your hands of the whole affair, you do the one thing he can think of to increase the chances of the Nietzschean, the one who has time and again put your ship in danger, staying in probably the safest place in the universe for him: with you.

 [Nietzsche Circle][Essays]
One of the thorniest concepts in the Nietzschean lexicon is ressentiment.
In America, the leading Left-Nietzscheans were Jack London, whose anguished vacillation between Nietzschean individualism and Marxist collectivism is recorded in his vigorous and thoughtful novels, The Sea Wolf, and Martin Eden; and H. Mencken, who saw Nietzsche as a prod in his savage, satiric debunking of complacent American truisms.
Much of the relativism of the 1920s, though, bore a surreptitiously Nietzschean imprint—from the permissiveness of the Jazz Age to the “revolt against the village” (to use Carl Van Doren’s phrase) of Sherwood Anderson and Sinclair Lewis.

 Nietzschean Psychology and Social Characteristics
As a Human subspecies, Nietzscheans took his words to heart and used genetic engineering and eugenic wars technology to reshape themselves into the ultimate survivors.
Nietzschean founder Paul Museveni basically took the parts he liked from Nietzsche, Darwin, Dawkins, Ayn Rand, and others and put them into an ideological mixmaster for his own purposes.
So any complaints that the Nietzscheans are misusing those thinkers (I use the term generously in the case of Rand ;-)) have to take into account that their ideology is based on Museveni's interpretations of what they're all about.

 Andromeda - 'Double Helix'
Dylan sends Tyr on a mission to persuade a group of Nietzschean pirates to accept a cease-fire with their Than enemies, upon which Tyr finds his loyalties put to the test.
The leader of the group appears to be Guderian, but there's also another, apparently wiser, figure of authority in Olma, whose role is to give or deny a seal of approval to would-be fathers based on the purity of their DNA and survival skills.
Really, most of this has to do with Gaheris Rhade, Dylan's Nietzschean first officer and close friend who betrayed him (see "Under the Night") and left him tortured over the possibility that the fall of the Commonwealth hinged upon his own trust being used against him.

 A Theological Location for Christian Discourse
Yet the measure of finitude, within Nietzschean thought, is due to the peculiarity of the human perceptual apparatus, the tricks of cognition by which we place ourselves at the center of  the universe.
True artistic creativity will be more a matter of an intensive but appropriate engagement with the world in which we are set, in which there is not only discovery and respect, but also a concern to develop and (in some cases) redeem what is given to hand.
Working with contemporary Nietzschean thought is a practice of artistic creativity: there is “discovery and respect” while recognizing that full theological insights cannot be pulled from the intellectual products of the age without “a concern to develop and.

The result of Zhuangzi being deemed a perspectivist in philosophical orientation is that he is frequently read through Nietzschean concepts and discussed with a philosophical lexicon that is primarily derived from Nietzsche scholarship.
Insofar as “perspectivism” is acknowledged as Nietzschean in origin, and so long as Nietzsche’s development of this perspectivism is a means to facilitate an adequate account of truth, Zhuangzi cannot rightly be called a perspectivist unless he too can be shown to be engaged in developing an account of truth.
Zhuangzi is still not a perspectivist in the Nietzschean sense, and is not guarding against narrowness because it prevents truth.

 Dispatches from 'Andromeda' - The Nietzscheans
Nietzscheans originated on Ayn Rand Station, a colony founded by a geneticist and named after the author of Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged.
Needless to say, their society is founded on the philosophies of Friedrich Nietzsche who, as the site puts it, "believed that strife and conflict would inevitably reshape men into something better and stronger than what they once were.

 Bernice Glatzer Rosenthal: New Myth, New World
The ensuing debates between and among their partisans reverberated throughout the wider culture and therefore also into Bolshevism, becoming the subject of an uninterrupted polemic between Bolsheviks and non-Bolsheviks, and among Bolsheviks, that continued into the 1930s.
In Stalin's time, unacknowledged Nietzschean ideas were used to mobilize the masses for the great tasks of the first Five-Year Plan and the Cultural Revolution, which was intended to eradicate "bourgeois" values and attitudes from Soviet life and to construct a distinctly Socialist culture.
By uncovering the buried influence of Nietzschean ideas on Soviet culture and politics, Rosenthal opens new avenues for understanding Soviet ideology and its influence on the twentieth century.

 CHAPTER IV
Even if the Nietzschean superman may be said to have a "moral" dimension in his aesthetic self-creativity, in the context of Confucian ethics he cannot be said to be a "moral" being in the proper meaning of the term until he assumes--explicitly or implicitly--his role of moral guardianship.
The contrast between the Nietzschean superman and the Confucian knight may be further elaborated.
The Nietzschean superman as the supreme specimen of the self-transcending creative individual is forever haunted by the playful lure of mystery arising from man's confrontation with the chaotic and the unknown, which is the basic impulse of human participation in the life of Eros.

 A Taste for the Wild: Some Nietzschean Themes in Thoreau1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
In good Nietzschean fashion, the character differences between the two men are reflected in their work, or at least in Thoreau’s own perception of the differences between his writing and Emerson’s.
His nature is too much that of the lover of nature of the kind that in an early Journal entry Thoreau finds objectionable: the “mealy-mouthed enthusiasm” of the nature lover comparing unfavourably with the “surliness with which the woodchopper speaks of his woods” (1 237).
The Nietzschean tenor of this and similar passages reflects a determination to “ love the wild not less than the good” (257).

The effort of this current to legitimize a Nietzschean Marxism and establish its relevance is reminiscent of the Nietzschean leanings of some Russian revolutionaries who supported Marxism in the first decade of the twentieth century  (see Kline 1969, 166–67).
Nevertheless, this claims that a revolutionary content is inherent in Nietzsche's surmounting of humanism, while this Nietzschean surmounting of humanism is located beyond Marx; the residue of Nietzsche's thinking that one is asked to accept lies in the themes of “the destructuring of the subject.
The Nietzschean thought-motifs, hidden in the presuppositions of Althusser's philosophizing, but carried in his explanation of Marxism, a philosophy alien to Nietzschean thought-motifs, brought about tempting shock effects, a shimmering intertwining of theoretical stringency and arbitrariness, transparency and opaque depth, conclusive proof and flotsam in a vacuum.

 New Nietzschean Diet Lets You Eat Whatever You Fear Most | The Onion - America's Finest News Source
The Nietzschean diet, which commands its adherents to eat superhuman amounts of whatever they most fear, is developing a strong following in America.
Dieters report that they are reveling in the powerful Nietzschean weight-loss message of self-realization, transcendence, and the personal freedom to eat certain foods which are not allowed on the Atkins and South Beach diets.

 Sens Public : Nietzschean Christianity, or, an American Foreign-Policy Paradox (impression)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
That is, according to Reaganite economic theory, it is the welfare state, instead of Christianity, that is guilty of favoring the weak, thereby dampening the upsurge of primal forces associated with vigor and life.
However, the relationship of analogy between the Nietzschean genealogical maneuver and the Reaganite political economy suggests that a flaw inherent in the first will be present in the second, as well.
And since the political, cultural and educational institutions that serve the Reaganite free-market ideology are dedicated principally to defending the governing genealogical myth, and since that genealogical myth is founded on an analytical error, the various propositions those institutions endorse are doomed to stumble again and again on a certain number of paradoxes.

 SSRN-Nietzschean Critique and Philosophical Hermeneutics by Francis Mootz
It addresses connections between philosophical hermeneutics and Nietzschean critique, and the relevance that these connections might have for legal theory.
I set the stage for the paper by recounting Allan Hutchinson's Nietzschean-inspired claim that radical critique in the tradition of the critical legal studies movement provides a necessary antidote to Gadamer's hermeneutical conventionalism, and then I provide an overview of Nietzsche's hermeneutical philosophy in terms of his naturalism and perspectivism.
