Friedrich
Wilhelm Nietzsche 尼采
電影中，Dwayne 因?yàn)槟岵啥}口不言，這位哲學(xué)家又什么魅力呢？下面我們就來(lái)認(rèn)識(shí)一下尼采。
German-Swiss philosopher and writer, one of the
most influential of modern thinkers. The son of a Lutheran pastor, he studied at
Bonn and Leipzig and at age 24 became professor of Classical philology at the
University of Basel. He became close to the older Richard Wagner, in whose
operas he saw the potential for the revival of Western civilization, but broke
with Wagner angrily in 1876. His Birth of Tragedy (1872) contained major
insights into ancient Greek drama; like Untimely Meditations (1873), it is
dominated by a Romantic perspective also influenced by Arthur Schopenhauer.
Mental and physical problems forced him to leave his position in 1878, and he
spent 10 years attempting to recover his health in various resorts while
continuing to write prolifically. His works from Human, All Too Human (1878) to
The Gay Science (1882) extol reason and science, experiment with literary
genres, and express his emancipation from his earlier Romanticism. His mature
writings, particularly Beyond Good and Evil (1886), A Genealogy of Morals
(1887), and Thus Spake Zarathustra (1883 - 92), were preoccupied with the origin
and function of values in human life. If, as he believed, life neither possesses
nor lacks intrinsic value and yet is always being evaluated, then such
evaluations can usefully be read as symptoms of the evaluator's condition. He
fulminated against Christianity and announced the death of God. His major
breakdown in 1889 marked the virtual end of his productive life. He was revered
by Adolf Hitler for his dislike of democracy and his heroic ideal of the
?bermensch (Superman), though the Nazis perverted Nietzsche's thought and
ignored much in it that was hostile to their aims. His analyses of the root
motives and values that underlie traditional Western religion, morality, and
philosophy affected generations of theologians, philosophers, psychologists,
poets, novelists, and playwrights.
