>Nihilism/Nietzsche
.
Ries II 12
Experimental philosophy/Nietzsche: Overcoming the "spirit of revenge", which is conditioned by the moral interpretation of the world and aims at the destruction of inner as well as outer nature, to the pathos of a superhuman "divine lightness in the heaviest", which celebrates the world as a sequence of divine solutions and visions in the illusion. Aesthetic knowledge of meaning and the world.
>Aesthetics/Nietzsche.
Ries II 44
Philosophy/Schopenhauer/NietzscheVsSchopenhauer: his pessimistic thinking refuses any educational experience that is only aesthetically uplifting. This thinking - because it is no longer an abstract "philosophy" - is not at all consumable.
>Schopenhauer.
Ries II 76
Philosophy/Beyond Good and Evil(1)/Nietzsche: 2nd main piece: "The Free Mind": A new genre of philosophers comes up: the tempters.
3rd main piece: "The Religious Being": internalized mysticism of masochism: cruelty is the essence of religion.

Philosophy/Nietzsche/Danto: For Nietzsche, the real problem of philosophy was not to give answers (...) but to make it clear how (...) disputes could arise. For Nietzsche, a philosophical problem is a question that is not to be answered, but rather to overcome.
