Untitled[edit]

Please help expand this page - I am attempting to fill in remaining blank entries on Nietzsche's works. I have attempted to follow the basic outline from The Antichrist (book). RobLinwood 05:57, 7 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Off the mark[edit]

Since there is much ignorance regarding the unread Schopenhauer, the article cannot reflect Nietzsche's main criticism of Wagner. Wagner, after reading Schopenhauer, wrote operas featuring the denial of the will to live. This reflected Schopenhauer's contention that absence of willing results in goodness and release from the world's evil. Nietzsche rejected Schopenhauer's doctrine and wanted to promote life regardless of its evil characteristics. He opposed Wagner's later operas with their death wishes, Christian compassion, and self sacrifices.Lestrade (talk) 02:19, 29 October 2010 (UTC)Lestrade[reply]

Nietzsche did not write this book to criticize Wagner's involvement with the Völkisch movement or with antisemitism. Nietzsche's references to Bizet were not ironic [real meaning that is the opposite of apparent meaning]. One of Nietzsche's main criticisms, in this book, was of Wagner's emphasis on theatrical drama rather than on pure music. Schopenhauer had given music supreme importance and value in his aesthetics and Nietzsche was strongly influenced by Schopenhauer's philosophy of music.Lestrade (talk) 00:26, 22 January 2012 (UTC)Lestrade[reply]

Quotation marks[edit]

Why are "philosophical affect" and "disease" enclosed in quotation marks? What is a "philosophical affect"? When used as a noun, "affect" means "feeling" or "emotion." Is the article referring to a "philosophical feeling" or "philosophical emotion"? That is a strange concept.Lestrade (talk) 02:18, 25 January 2012 (UTC)Lestrade[reply]
