Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the best known modern thinkers. His philosophy is a mixture of penetrable ideas expressed through poetic, cynical and waggish style. Nietzsche’s non-academic epistemological attitude towards the world of wisdom represents the zenith of German idealism which was already foretold by Hegel’s rejection of abstract thinking. In his philosophy, Nietzsche undermines the platonic and Christian idealism which devaluates corporality, passions and forces of life. Nietzsche seeks deeper conceptions of the truth which lies beyond dogmatic timelessness and unchangeability. He substitutes linearism with a perspective of cyclicity and eternal return of the same, which re-establish the values of life and his corporal manifestations.
