Abstract
"To this end, a highly nuanced method of interpretation is necessary. As Nietzsche's thought undergoes several dramatic transformations, and as he, in any one period, provides us only with a series of partial perspectives on any given topic, I intend to be carefully attuned to the temporal unfolding of Nietzsche's opus, and to be able to ""play off"" various passages against one another, in order to reveal his considered position. Finally, I engage in an internal critique of Nietzsche's thought in order to reveal its unintended consequences, often following up on Nietzsche's own doubts and suspicions regarding his work's future."
