Description

Nietzsche on Instinct and Language offers a fresh perspective on Nietzsche's attempt to connect language to the instinctive activity of the human body. This collection of revised papers from leading scholars explores how Nietzsche sought to dissolve traditional oppositions between instinct, language, and consciousness. The volume delves into Nietzsche's mature views on this subject, examining his ideas in works such as Beyond Good and Evil, The Gay Science, and his early Nachlass notes. Topics include morality, value, philosophy, dogmatism, naturalization, metaphor, affectivity, emotion, health, sickness, tragedy, and laughter. By considering these themes through the lens of instinct and language, this collection sheds new light on key aspects of Nietzsche's thought and its ongoing relevance in fields such as aesthetics, logic, and psychology.
