JP Stern on Nietzsche: Section 3
Vehement repudiation of Christian and liberal ethics; the detestation of democratic ideals; the celebration of the “superman”; the death of God; and a life-affirming “will to power” are the philosophical legacies of Friedrich Nietzsche. In this program, Nietzsche philosopher JP Stern discusses these concepts as the genesis of existentialism, and as the root philosophies of fascist political movements.

yes, yes, yes, yes, no well yes, yes, yes, yes
YES!
Two people from a country Nietzsche was not fond of interpreting him for us…
What is it he said about Englishmen? Haha
i took Nietzsche’s ubermensch as a conjunction of two words with the former a preposition to the noun, and not as an adjective as the herd interprets it. the ubermensch, non proper, i described as man getting over himself, as in ego death. and i explained this in a 7 page paper for a 300-level ethics course for which i received an ‘A’. i give thanks to my unusually queer mind, herbs and psychedelics that help me read between the lines of his thought. print is just a veil for the fire it conceals
have you read McLuhan’s “Gutenberg Galaxy”? Your last line about print reminded me of that book, which I am currently reading and almost finished with.
It”s fucking brilliant!
Psychedelics are fantastic if one is intelligent and possesses a sunny disposition
What a wonderful world.
such rubbish which led to a tradition of weak-minded rubbish: Foucault, Derrida etc.
Why is academia just fully of these waffling old fools (Stern) that cannot answer a question clearly.
Compare this episode with the ones on Wittgenstein and Schopenhauer and one sees the work of really philosophy getting to grips with the really questions
No, I haven’t read any McLuhan. But I’ll be sure to put the one you mentioned on my list.
Yes, psychedelics are fantastic! and I believe absolutely imperative to consciousness expansion.
To grapple with nietzsche is to tangle with your own soul.
@buggfire
Seven whole pages, huh?
@Rico8458
What does that even mean?
The comments on these Nietzsche videos are hilarious.
@Angk0rwat
lol. i know there are people who can do seven pages with both hands tied around their backs. im surprised it took this long for someone to note the naivete of my comment. and i did seven when five was required. i expected to write more but i guess i got lazy then.
@Angk0rwat
and so what? unless i detect a hint of cynicism. the point in that point in time was to the effect that i produced as many pages of text that i did. if it had been for a dissertation i assume for myself i could have developed my thesis with more breadth but at that time was beyond the scope of the goal intended.
my friend,
“man getting over himself, as in ego death”
If you so will, could you relieve my curiosity with more details unto which i can understand your interpretation of nietzsche’s ubermensche? also, i would like to say to comment that there is no mystic quality to nietzsche’s Zarathustra, as you are eluding to. Nietzsche hated mysticism
yes, and i believe i came to that conclusion before i fell to the lure of theosophy, but hpb and nietzsche were contemporaries and i think there was something novel about the late 19th century, as it has been in the past, e.g. sumer, egypt (kemet), greece & rome. and what theosophy teaches is that there is an original (like a singularity) doctrine that evolved on earth, and all philosophy is then subsequently influenced. even nietzsche’s zarathustra is taken from the hymns of the persian avesta.
To undesrtand nietzche you have to live
ha ha ha ha ha come on you dont need that many yes’s, for f**ks sake im trying to learn for my Philosophy exam I dont need the constant yes’s
@buggfire tirthankaras
Minimise the window and it will seem like one man is talking while the other one is having sex with a dead person in the background.
history repeats itself for eternity so then anything goes because its only what has gone before in its pureist form…only purity comes from denial of itself…as in knowleadge from ignorance and ignorance from knowleadge…all history comes down too the tortured lamb of god….everything on planet earth.
@faisalleszion did you get it too.?
@micalee000 lol the will too power must destroy that which is weak therfore the will too power is weakness, as he said, and therfore the will to power is weakness only them who are truley powerful will it not
what is wrong with you idiots who have commented on this video, don’t you think we could use this kind of program now, intead of the mindless garbage on all day.
must be a british thing
@890buddha Your reasoning is right….Sr.
