An ambitious venture into Nietzsche’s envisioned philosophy for the
future. Nietzsche advocated for a post-theistic “philosophy of
the future”—a new approach to human reality that would bend
Western thought away from nihilism in a life-affirming, value-creative
direction. His early demise left this endeavor only just begun. In
Nietzsche Pursued, Richard Schacht examines Nietzsche’s revisionist
approach to familiar philosophical topics, exploring how some may be
further pursued in Nietzschean ways. Each chapter focuses on one topic
that is central to Nietzsche's vision of what philosophy can and
should be and do. Among them: his kind of naturalism, humanity,
perspectivism, morality, and music. Building on his analysis in
Nietzsche’s Kind of Philosophy, Schacht invites readers to see with
new appreciation the ongoing significance of Nietzsche’s thought for
philosophy’s future.
