  • Twilight of the Idols or How to Philosophise with a Hammer is one of Nietzsche’s last books, written in 1888. As Nietzsche was starting to become recognised, he felt that he needed a short text that would serve as an introduction to his thought.
    In a letter, he wrote: “This style is my philosophy in a nutshell - radically up to criminal…”
    The book offers a lightning tour of his whole philosophy, preparing the way for The Anti-Christ, a final assault on institutional Christianity, which would be the first part of his Revaluation of All Values.
    Which, unfortunately, he could not complete, due to his mental breakdown in 1889.

    Indeed and agreed, this video presentation is art realizing true potential. I too truly appreciate the combination of imagist-visuals and a well written script. The narrative is simultaneously structured and pliable, by design. The enhanced quality indeed retains the author’s core integrity of ideas, as the objective is concisely expressed in it’s cognitive dialectic form. Bravo!!!

      @@NegationOfNegation Happy to hear that! There are plenty of books I have to read (for example, all od Nietzsche's works).

    Nietzche was kind of in the right in that christianity must suffer setbacks from his time on unless it learns how to overcome nihilism latent in its doctrines and present in most christians.

    • @Eternalised
      @Eternalised  3 роки тому +8

      Absolutely. Predicted the advent of nihilism and decline of Christian values. Imagine replacing a value structure as old as Christianity, which springs up from Judaism, and that from even older religions/myths. Truly, an enormous task, a Revaluation of All Values, with the image of Zarathustra replacing Christ, the triumph of the master morality over the slave morality.

    - Nietzsche's position on the Indian caste system.
    - The quote "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" meaning changed by it's preface.
    I found those points in the comments and I would like to know your input. Have a nice day man!

    7:30 are you sure he's criticizing the caste system in India? In his own words, "It is quite obvious that we are no longer in a circus watching tamers of wild animals in this book. To have conceived even the plan of such a breeding scheme, presupposes the existence of a man who is a hundred times milder and more reasonable than the mere lion-tamer. One breathes more freely, after stepping out of the Christian atmosphere of hospitals and prisons, into this more salubrious, loftier and more spacious world. What a wretched thing the New Testament is beside Manu, what an evil odour hangs around it!" Perhaps a more careful reading was needed on your part.
