Book Synopsis To Nietzsche: Dionysus, I Love You! Ariadne by : Claudia Crawford
Download or read book To Nietzsche: Dionysus, I Love You! Ariadne written by Claudia Crawford and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1995-01-01 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the possibility that Friedrich Nietzsche simulated his madness as a form of voluntary death, and thus that his madness functioned as the symbolic culmination of his philosophy. The book weaves together scholarly, mytho-poetic, literary critical, biographical, and dramatic genres not only to explore specifics of Nietzsches madness, but to question the reason/madness opposition in nineteenth and twentieth century thinking. A rational and scholarly study of this period of Nietzsches breakdownpresented through his writings, letters, and poetry in combination with relevant historical documents and other critics writingsis simultaneously disrupted and questioned by several non-traditional discourses or voices that break in on it. Thus, Ariadnes voice frames and unframes the research context and plays alongside it. Ariadnes voice is poetic, revelatory, rhapsodic, and prophetic, sounding much like Nietzsches own voice during his breakdown. Ariadnes discourse attempts to seduce through a non-rational, mytho-poetic love story which culminates in the wedding of Dionysus and Ariadne. Other non-rational discourses, critically developed and based upon the work of Nietzsche, Jean Baudrillard, and Gilles Deleuze, are given voice and work together with Ariadne to counter the usual interpretations of Nietzsches madness and of what mad discourse is. These discourses are given the names catastrophe, phantasm, and seduction. The experiment of the book is not only to offer an entirely different perspective on Nietzches madness but to offer and perform new and challenging forms of affirmative discourse.
Book Synopsis Dionysus Dithyrambs by : Friedrich Nietzsche
Download or read book Dionysus Dithyrambs written by Friedrich Nietzsche and published by Livraria Press. This book was released on with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dionysus Dithyrambs" is a collection of poems that celebrate the Dionysian aspect of life. The Dithyramb is an ancient Greek choral hymn dedicated to the god Dionysus, and Nietzsche uses this form to express his philosophical ideas in a lyrical manner. This Dionysian-Apollonian dichotomy is central to his theories on Aesthetics. This collection of poems is philosophy cloaked in the mantle of poetic expression, often intertwining his thoughts with the mythic persona of Zarathustra- a figure he pours all of his concepts of the ideal man into. The dithyrambs are characterized by their rhythmic intensity and vibrancy, reflecting the chaotic nature of raw Dionysian art. Nietzsche uses poetic language to dissect themes of truth, wisdom, and existence as he navigates the stormy seas of philosophical thought. Nietzsche emphasizes the role of all forms of art- Music, theater and poetry, as critical to dulling the pain of material existence. These poems are deeply influenced by the figure of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, ecstasy, and creative chaos, embodying Nietzsche's ideals of life affirmation, artistic creativity, and the transcendence of conventional morality. The dithyrambs, traditionally a form of ancient Greek hymn sung in honor of Dionysus, are reimagined by Nietzsche to express his vision of a liberated, Dionysian spirit that revels in the dynamic and often tumultuous nature of existence. Dionysus Dithyrambs was published posthumously by his estate in 1891. The text was first published in 1891 as part of "Nietzsche's Works, Volume I" by C.G. Naumann in Leipzig, Germany. The collection was edited by Nietzsche's sister, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, who was instrumental in curating and publishing his remaining manuscripts and notes after his death in 1900. This new 2024 translation from the original German, Latin and Greek manuscript contains a new Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Nietzsche's life and works, an index with descriptions of his core concepts and summaries of his complete body of works. This translation is designed to allow the armchair philosopher to engage deeply with Nietzsche's works without having to be a full-time Academic. The language is modern and clean, with simplified sentence structures and diction to make Nietzsche's complex language and arguments as accessible as possible. This Reader's Edition also contains extra material that amplifies the manuscript with autobiographical, historical and linguistic context. This provides the reader a holistic view of this very enigmatic philosopher as both an introduction and an exploration of Nietzsche's works; from his general understanding of his philosophic project to an exploration of the depths of his metaphysics and unique contributions. This edition contains: • An Afterword by the Translator on the history, impact and intellectual legacy of Nietzsche • Translation notes on the original German, Latin and Greek manuscript • An index of Philosophical concepts used by Nietzsche with a focus on Existentialism and Phenomenology • A chronological list of Nietzsche's entire body of works • A detailed timeline of Nietzsche's life and works

Download or read book Dithyrambs of Dionysus written by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche and published by Learning Links. This book was released on 1984 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1844, Friedrich Nietzsche died in Weimar on 25 August 1900. Arguably the most important philosopher of the 19th century, his earliest reputation was as much for his poetry as for his philosophical writings. He began writing poetry as a boy and continued, in a wide range of styles, throughout his life. In its completed form, Dithyrambs of Dionysus' was his last book. The nine poems of this cycle were composed during 1883-8 and assembled for publication shortly before his breakdown in 1889. They represent the ultimate visionary poetic style which he developed in the years after Thus Spake Zarathustra' and form a coda to his life's work. RJ Hollingdale has translated eleven of Nietzsche's books and works by, among others, Schopenhauer, Goethe, ETA Hoffman and Theodor Fontane. Among his recent publications are a revised version of Nietzsche: The Man and His Philosophy' and a new edition of Lichtenberg's Waste-Books'.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the world knew of the thinker who “philosophizes with a hammer,” there was a young, passionate thinker who was captivated by the two forces found within Greek art: Dionysus and Apollo. In this essay, which was the forerunner to his groundbreaking book The Birth of Tragedy, The Dionysian Vision of the World provides an unparalleled look into the philosophical mind of one of Europe’s greatest and provocative intellects at the beginning of his philosophical interrogation on the subject of art. “While dreaming is the game man plays with reality as an individual, the visual artist (in the larger sense) plays a game with dreaming.” This is the Dionysian vision of the world.

Book Synopsis The Dionysian Worldview by : Friedrich Nietzsche
Download or read book The Dionysian Worldview written by Friedrich Nietzsche and published by Livraria Press. This book was released on with total page 97 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lecture is Nietzsche's initial formulation of the Dionysian concept, which later becomes central to his philosophical work, especially present in "The Birth of Tragedy." The original German title is "Die dionysische Weltanschauung", usually translated as "The Dionysian World-view". Here Nietzsche contrasts two meta-psychological Archetypical artistic forces: the Dionysian and the Apollonian, drawing heavily on Greek mythology. The Dionysian aspect represents chaos, emotion, irrationality, and the uncontrollable aspects of human nature, similar to the characteristics of the Greek god Dionysus, associated with wine, fertility, ritual madness, and religious ecstasy. Conversely, the Apollonian represents order, reason, and the aesthetic qualities of structure and form, associated with the god Apollo, the god of art, light, and reason. This is where Carl Jung gets his Anima/ Animus dichotomy. The Dionysian Worldview was given by the newly minted Professor Nietzsche at the Basel Museum held on February 1, 1870, and subsequently published but the foundation managed by his sister. This lecture was first published in the volume "Gesammelte Werke" edited by Peter Gast (a pseudonym for Heinrich Köselitz, a close associate of Nietzsche) and Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche (Nietzsche's sister). They were included in the second series of these collected works under the title "Philologica," which was published in 1897. This was part of the effort to compile and publish Nietzsche's unpublished manuscripts and lecture notes after his death. This is one of three major Basel lectures he gave immediately after he accepted a position at the University of Basel. At the young age of 24, Nietzsche accepted a philology professorship in 1869, which facilitated his acquaintance with the composer residing in Tribschen. During this period, Nietzsche delivered three lectures that prefigured his future focus: 'The Greek Musical Drama' on January 18, 'Socrates and Tragedy' on February 1, and the 'The Dionysian Worldview' in July/August 1870. Feeling constrained by philological topics, Nietzsche sought a professorship in philosophy. His writing primarily reflects influences from two significant sources: the philosophy of Arthur Schopenhauer and the musical and theoretical works of Richard Wagner. This new 2024 translation from the original German, Latin and Greek manuscript contains a new Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Nietzsche's life and works, an index with descriptions of his core concepts and summaries of his complete body of works. This translation is designed to allow the armchair philosopher to engage deeply with Nietzsche's works without having to be a full-time Academic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nietzsche and the Dionysian argues that the Dionysian affect in Nietzsche’s early work can be linked to an originary interruption of self-consciousness articulated by the philosophical companion, who compels us to respond to the plurality of life they express by being ‘true to the earth’ and ‘becoming who we are’. Such an ethics, compelled by the Dionysian affect, grounds any future for humanity in the affirmation of the earth and life.

Book Synopsis Nietzsche and “The Birth of Tragedy” by : Paul Raimond Daniels
Download or read book Nietzsche and “The Birth of Tragedy” written by Paul Raimond Daniels and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nietzsche's philosophy - at once revolutionary, erudite and deep - reaches into all spheres of the arts. Well into a second century of influence, the profundity of his ideas and the complexity of his writings still determine Nietzsche's power to engage his readers. His first book, "The Birth of Tragedy", presents us with a lively inquiry into the existential meaning of Greek tragedy. We are confronted with the idea that the awful truth of our existence can be revealed through tragic art, whereby our relationship to the world transfigures from pessimistic despair into sublime elation and affirmation. It is a landmark text in his oeuvre and remains an important book both for newcomers to Nietzsche and those wishing to enrich their appreciation of his mature writings. "Nietzsche and The Birth of Tragedy" provides a clear account of the text and explores the philosophical, literary and historical influences bearing upon it. Each chapter examines part of the text, explaining the ideas presented and assessing relevant scholarly points of interpretation. The book will be an invaluable guide to readers in Philosophy, Literary Studies and Classics coming to "The Birth of Tragedy" for the first time.
Book Synopsis Nietzsche’s The Birth of Tragedy: From the Spirit of Music by : Friedrich Nietzsche
Download or read book Nietzsche’s The Birth of Tragedy: From the Spirit of Music written by Friedrich Nietzsche and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Birth of Tragedy" stands alongside Aristotle’s "Poetics" as essential works for all who seek to understand poetry and its relationship to human life. In this, his first book, Nietzsche developed a way of thinking about the arts that unites the Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus as the central symbol of human existence. Although tragedy serves as the focus of this work, music, visual art, dance, and the other arts can also be viewed using Nietzsche’s analysis and integration of the Apollonian and the Dionysian. Nietzsche opened the door to philosophy in the 20th century. He anticipated depth psychology, championed myth, attacked literalism in religion and the arts, placed humanity in an evolutionary perspective, and launched a critique of scientism that remains potent in the 21st century. Although he is often linked to the movement known as existentialism, Nietzsche’s overall work defies being placed in any single category.

Book Synopsis Nietzsche versus Wagner by : Friedrich Nietzsche
Download or read book Nietzsche versus Wagner written by Friedrich Nietzsche and published by Livraria Press. This book was released on with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Nietzsche versus Wagner", sometimes translated "Nietzsche against Wagner", is a critical examination of the composer Richard Wagner, whom Nietzsche praised in his early years and later declared his enemy. Nietzsche was close to the entire Wagner family, even Wagner's wives, but later had a falling out and spent a significant amount of energy attacking him. In this work, Nietzsche distances himself from Wagner's music and ideology, criticizing the composer's embrace of German nationalism and his turn to Christianity. Nietzsche contrasts Wagner's decadent, pessimistic art with his own vision of a life-affirming, Dionysian aesthetic. The book reflects Nietzsche's broader concerns about the role of art and culture in society and his ongoing exploration of the tensions between Apollonian and Dionysian forces. Nietzsche also addresses the psychological and philosophical implications of Wagner's music, arguing that it represents a retreat from the complexities of reality into the comforting illusions of myth and religion. He sees Wagner's work as symptomatic of a broader cultural malaise characterized by a loss of vitality and authenticity. Through his critique of Wagner, Nietzsche seeks to reaffirm the values of individualism, creativity, and the joyful affirmation of life that he believes are essential to the rejuvenation of culture and the realization of human potential. This is one of three major works attacking Wager's music and legacy Nietzsche issued. This work was assembled and published at the end of 1888 under the title Nietzsche contra Wagner, shortly before his final mental collapse in January 1889. The text was published in December 1888 by C. G. Naumann in Leipzig. This new 2024 translation of the original 1888 German manuscript includes a new afterword by the translator, a timeline of Nietzsche's life and works, an index with descriptions of his key concepts, and summaries of his complete works. This translation is designed to allow the armchair philosopher to engage deeply with Nietzsche's works without having to be a full-time Academic. The language is modern and clean, with simplified sentence structures and diction to make Nietzsche's complex language and arguments as accessible as possible.
