| Nihilism | Nietzsche | Ries II 11 Nihilism/Nietzsche: overcoming nihilism oneself from the "will to nothing", to the will of the Dionysian affirmation of the fatality of all that was and will be. Ries II 69 Nihilism/Return/Nietzsche: Nihilism and return must be thought together. The existence determined for nothing as a self-willing world of creation and destruction. >Eternal return/Nietzsche. "Everything is the same." Only in the "affirmation" the transition from the "mind of revenge" to the "Cupid Fati" takes place, the Dionysian way of saying "yes" to the world. Overcoming the mere temporality of time to the eternity of eternal return. "O human," bell in Sil's Maria. Ries II 112 Nihilism/Nietzsche: the well thought out logic of our great values and ideals. Ries II 113 The aim is missing. Return of the same. In vain! Duration, without aim and purpose, the paralyzing thought: one realizes that one is being teased and yet without power. Ries: Nietzsche anticipates the terrorist practice of fascism. Even those who have come to bad fortunes must be convinced that they are no different from their oppressors. Will to nothing. They force the powerful to be their executioners, this is the European form of Buddhism. Danto III 40 Nihilism/Danto: nihilism was essentially a negative and destructive attitude against the set of political, religious and moral doctrines which the nihilists patronize most impressively expressed by Turgenev's fathers and sons. Danto III 41 Nihilism/Nietzsche: Nihilism according to the pattern of St. Petersburg that is, (...) belief in unbelief, up to martyrdom (therefore) always shows the need for belief first.(1) Danto III 42 Nihilism/Turgenev/Danto: the views of the figure of the Basarov from Turgenev's fathers and sons have something touchingly immature: A skilled chemist is twenty times more useful than any poet. Nihilism/Nietzsche/Danto: Nietzsche's negativity was not more moderate, but his nihilism is not an ideology, but a metaphysics. >Metaphysics/Nietzsche. He does not regard science as a source of truth or a method of discovering it, but rather sees it as a certain set of useful fictions or useful conventions, which in reality is not better or worse anchored than any once defined set of fictions which may conflict with it. Danto III 43 Russian Nihilism/NietzscheVsNihilism: In contrast to Schopenhauer's Nihilism, Russian Nihilism is characterised by the fact that outside the world there is an authority, from which the purpose of life can be learned. Danto III 44 Nihilism/Nietzsche/Danto: ... the human reaches the final form of nihilism: the unbelief towards any other imaginable world, which is metaphysically preferable to this one. At the same time, he understands that this world is the only one that exists, however much it may lack design, purpose and value. >Value/Nietzsche. Danto III 46 Eternal Return/Nietzsche/Danto: Nietzsche's nihilism culminates in the doctrine of the Eternal Return, according to which the world repeats itself endlessly and precisely. Nietzsche considered it to be a serious scientific insight and the only alternative to that view, according to which the world has or can have a goal, a purpose or an end state.(2) Danto III 43 Nihilism/Schopenhauer/Danto: the nihilism of emptiness, as well as Schopenhauer's nihilism, presupposes a widespread worldview according to which the goal is established from the outside, given, demanded. (F. Nietzsche: Nachlass, Berlin, 1999, p. 554). NietzscheVsSchopenhauer: Instead of overcoming the state of mind that demands such a purpose, this nihilism is only disappointed by its absence. By overcoming it, all pessimism and despair is deprived of a basis. From his frustration with the all too stingy fairy, the human is able to free himself as soon as it gradually dawns on him that there is neither a stingy nor a generous fairy. >Schopenhauer. 1. F. Nietzsche Fröhliche Wissenschaft, S. 347,, KGW V, 2, S. 264. 2. F. Nietzsche Nachlass, Berlin, 1999, S. 684. |

| Nozick, R. | Nagel Vs Nozick, R. | I 196 Robert Nozick: Thesis: Evolution theoretical explanation of human reason. (Naturalistic epistemology). Proposes a reversal of the Kantian dependency on the facts of reason. "Reason is a dependent variable which is shaped by the facts. Reason gives information about reality, because reality shapes reason, and because it selects what appears as "obvious"." "The evolution theoretical explanation itself is something where we get by leveraging reason to support the evolution theory. I 197 Therefore, this interpretation does not belong to the initial philosophy, but to our current scientific opinion." NagelVsNozick: that is no guarantee that the thing is true at all, or necessary. There could also have been a different adaptation to evolution. Nor is it a justification of reason. I.e. the whole thing is not circular. I 199 NagelVsNozick: I must be able to believe that the evolutionary explanation is consistent with the proposition that I act upon the rules of logic, because they are right and not only because I'm biologically programmed to this behavior. (Also applies to mathematics). I 200 The only form that can really assume rational thinking is to understand the validity of arguments based on what they say! I 201 This is not to deny the importance of our thinking for survival. (Although there are a lot of species that have lived on happily without this capability). VsRealism/Ethics/Nihilism: nihilism tries to portray it as a discovery that there are no objective values. Then all positive value statements must be false. Only of people in the world it could be said that it is anything of importance to them. III 64 NagelVsNihilism/Ethics: that is tempting from the objective point of view, but it is a misconception to presuppose that objective judgments can only be made from a distant point of view. |
