With his vivid, passionate language, 19th century German philosopher Fredrich Nietzsche wrote his books as a way to pry open a space in a reader’s psyche, a space empowering an individual to embark on a journey of inner exploration. This is precisely why I think any attempt, no matter how well inten Leggi tutto
Apollo Vs Dionysus: A Darwinian Drama Nietzsche never struck me as a real philosopher. He was too much the story-teller. This is probably his most a-philosophical (?) work. But it is my favorite. It was the most accessible to me and it was the most relevant of his works. It helped me form my own convi Leggi tutto
Another '10%' book for me: I think I understood about 10% of what Nietzsche was trying to say - so here is my 10% review: the dichotomy between (A)pollonian (rational) and (D)ionysian (irrational) impulses is a constant 'tug-of-war' that seems to go on for the soul of a nation; indeed this is the si Leggi tutto

I am the Dionysiac excess personified but action repels me. I am the Dionysiac expression of nature, and therefore I am an abominable crime against nature. I belong to the Dionysiac order of the cast of the die. I seek delight behind phenomena. I am the feeling of myth personified and no, I am not a Leggi tutto
Before Nietzsche became unhinged he wrote this great work. It took a toll on me after I read it because it was my introduction to Nietzsche and everything of his that I read afterwards was miscued; it scattered my thought process for a few years. The Joyful Wisdom, filled with remarkable poetry, was Leggi tutto
