Friedrich Nietzsche - Thoughts on Art, Religion and Secularism
Authors/Creators
Description
"He was an artist of thought and mind, with his thinking he performed a drama", says Rüdiger Safranski, the renown Nietzsche-biographer, in an interview. In an unique way the 19th century philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche - born 1844 in Lützen, expired 1900 in Weimar - forethought the 20th century unlike (most probably) any other European intellectual of his time.
As a radical proponent of the Enlightenment, he was one of the most striking masterminds of a secular worldview in 19th century Europe. For him Europe was a super-continental principle, he was pro Europe, but contra any form Eurocentrism. The following central streams of Nietzsche's thought shall be brought to discussion in this article: The era of modernity that has begun with the French Revolution postulating liberty, equality and fraternity, elevated ratio and reason to the central objectives of European modern secular society.
