Description
Kunst als Kristallisationspunkt von Nietzsches Denken In the recent debate on Nietzsche s philosophy, attention has increasingly focused on the arts. For Nietzsche, who saw the arts as a decisive motive in life, it also allows humans to liberate themselves from anxieties, pressures and constraints. He celebrates the arts especially music as a force that gives them wings and allows them to free themselves of the spirit of gravity .
Throughout the volume, the author particularly contrasts the views of Hegel with statements by Nietzsche. Hegel, who, like Nietzsche though to a smaller extent uses metaphors in his philosophical reflections and as a means of expression, chose to work his way through a concept in a strictly logical process, while Nietzsche made a variety of attempts using literary creativity to go beyond the purely conceptual level. In this way, Nietzsche contributes to a broadening of the philosophical field, opening up alternative approaches to philosophical questions.
