André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Key concepts

Much controversy surrounds whether Nietzsche advocated a single or comprehensive philosophical viewpoint. Many charge Nietzsche with propounding contradictory thoughts and ideas. Here are Nietzsche's main ideas. Friedrich Nietzsche - Nihilism and the death of God. After the skepticism in his early works towards the old foundations of philosophy, religion, and morality, Nietzsche experienced the absence of any meaning or purpose to the world and human existence. Nietzsche did not attribute this nihilism to ...

Trained as a paleographer and archivist, Martin du Gard brought to his works a spirit of objectivity and a scrupulous regard for details.

Friedrich Nietzsche - Youth 1844–1869. Friedrich Nietzsche was born on October 15, 1844, in the small town of Röcken, near Leipzig, within what was then the Prussian province of Saxony.

His sister, Elisabeth, was born in 1846, followed by his brother Ludwig Joseph in 1848. After the death of their ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Style

Nietzsche is unique among philosophers for what is widely regarded as the remarkable power and effectiveness of his prose style - particularly as manifested in Zarathustra. The indigestible 'heaviness' long associated with German-language philosophy is eschewed, with puns and paradoxes abounding, and aphoristic brevity rubbing shoulders with parable and even poem in his rhetoric. The end result is a manner of philosophical writing which, being "pitched half-way between metaphor and literal statement" is ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Place in contemporary ethical theory

Nietzsche's work addresses ethics from several perspectives; in today's terms, we might say his remarks pertain to meta-ethics, normative ethics, and descriptive ethics. As far as meta-ethics is concerned, Nietzsche can perhaps most usefully be classified as a moral skeptic; that is, he claims that all ethical statements are false, because any kind of correspondence between ethical statements and "moral facts" is illusory. (This is part of a more general claim that there is no universally true fact, roughly because none of them more than "appear" to correspond to reality). I ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Political views

During the First World War and after 1945, many regarded Nietzsche as having helped to cause the German militarism. In fact, the German right-wing did not appreciate Nietzsche's thought until the rise of the Nazis. Nietzsche was popular among left-wing Germans in the 1890s. Many Germans read Thus Spoke Zarathustra and were influenced by Nietzsche's appeal of unlimited individualism and the development of a personality. The enormous popularity of Nietzsche led to the Subversion debate in German politics in 1894/1895. Conservatives want ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Kierkegaard and Nietzsche

Many philosophers believe Nietzsche, aside from the name, knew little of the 19th century philosopher Søren Kierkegaard (1813–1855). Georg Brandes, a Danish philosopher, wrote to Nietzsche in 1888 asking him to study the works of Kierkegaard, to which Nietzsche replied that he would. [5] Nietzsche was unable to undertake this task before his mental collapse in 1889. However, recent research believed Nietzsche was exposed to the works of Kierkegaard, through secondary literature. Aside from Brandes, Nietzsche owned and read a copy of Hans ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - James Dean - Legacy

James Dean is one of only five people to have been nominated for a Best Actor Academy Award for their first feature role and the only one nominated twice posthumously. He is buried in Park Cemetery in Fairmount, Indiana. Two films from 1955, Rebel Without a Cause and Blackboard Jungle, are most often cited as having symbolized the growing post-war rebellion of 1950s teenagers along with playing a part in the emergence of Rock and Roll as a lasting cultural phenomenon. Many young people of that and later generations model ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - James Dean - Porsche 550 Spyder

In 1955, Dean purchased one of only 90 Porsche 550 Spyder, nicknaming it "Little Bastard". Since the actor's death, the car has been infamous as being the vehicle that killed not only him, but others in the years following his death. Over the years, many groups of people believed that the actor's vehicle and all of its parts were cursed. George Barris, who customized the car for Dean, bought the wreck for $2,500, only to have it ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - James Dean - Death

Dean had become friends with fellow auto enthusiast and multi-millionaire Lance Reventlow, one of the last people to speak to Dean when they met on their way from Los Angeles to a sports car race at Laguna Seca Raceway in Monterey, California. A few hours later Dean was driving his Porsche 550 Spyder west on U.S. Highway 466 (later California State Route 46) near Cholame, California when a car driven from the opposite direction by 23-year-old Cal Poly student Donald Turnupseed, attempting to take the fork onto California State Route 41, cros ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - James Dean - Sexuality

James Dean's sexual life is a matter of some debate. Often considered a gay film icon [4], there are many published accounts of Dean having had bisexual relationships. In literary critic Ron Martinetti's biography, "The James Dean Story," Martinetti writes, "Only one of Dean's homosexual relationships is dealt with in this book--and that in his early days in Hollywood and New York with a director named Rogers Brackett. Toward the end of his ...

André Gide: Encyclopedia II - Friedrich Nietzsche - Reception of Nietzsche

Among the first to recognize Nietzsche's importance was the German novelist Thomas Mann, who showed Nietzsche's influence in his novels, especially his 1947 Doktor Faustus. In 1936, Martin Heidegger lectured on the "Will to Power as a Work of Art", and would later publish four large volumes of lectures on Nietzsche. In 1938, the German existentialist Karl Jaspers commented about the influence of Nietzsche: The contemporary philosophical situation is determined by the fact that two philosophers, Kierkegaard and Niet ...
