Nietzche pretty muchy was waring against the herd's anger and telling you to keep moving forward, even if the herd hated you for your convictions.

I remember the foreword in my copy of Bertrand Russell's History of Western Philosophy. (probably a dutch translation, I cant quite remember) From what I recall the philosopher that wrote it praises russels analysis in general and in particular of the classic period, but also warned that Russell was a man of his time too and that he got more biased regarding philosophers of (or close to) his own time. Particulary Nietzsche.

Perhaps Nietzsche’a idea was to martyr himself philosophically and present the most extreme set of ideas on the other end of the compassion scale, against which all others can be measured. Nietzsche seems to restrict himself to man whose only spur for action is the inclination to predate or dominate. This reduces man to a force of nature, as opposed to a conscious being with a sense of reflection. His moral “suffering has no meaning” is very profound. And Russell’s interpretation is very helpful and masterful.

I don't think so. It is not like his ideas existed in a vacuum. People say he is not a political thinker, but you can see the politics of his time all over his work. He was responding to the much more pacific version of man put by illuminism and german idealism. His predatory idea of humanity is not that far from Hobbes. Difference being that he saw a constructive value in it, opposite to Hobbes who just wanted to contain it. He was asserting aristocratic values over any sort of egalitarian philosophy.

More a metaphysical mind than a man - but perhaps he can't escape his own Jungian expectations to see the platonomodernistic forest for the trees.

Also Nietzsche never considered War in it strict and literal meaning, proclaiming only happiness, lightness and freedom which might not be found in religious doctrines he always criticized, which as itself during human history led to great deal of wars.

It's important to keep in mind that Russell is commenting on Nietzsche based on bad translations and editing available before Walter Kaufmann (sp?) in the 1950s and 60scorrected a lot of the past mistakes. Also, Russell was (understandably) strongly influenced by the fallacious Nazi adoptions of Nietzsche's catch phrases. enabled mostly by Nietzsche's sister's misappropriation of his writing. Nietzsche delighted in pushing ideas that were intentionally open to interpretation, he was the philosopher of 'what if', he was intentionally contradicting and metaphorical. There is a lot to disagree with, most of which he would disagree with too. He also wrote how to be a philosopher is to essentially be proclaiming subjective and autobiographically revealing opinions; he often wrote of his regrets about some of the more cruel things he wrote, especially about women, that he attributed to his own rage and hurt from rejections.

Making Money off of Book Sales and Speaking engagement ticket seems a full time Job for Fred. Through all the Correspondence, I've never seen Nietzsche gripe about any of the serious Issues he had. He kind of bucked up and Walked his talk. I shall dig up the Book and read it again. Europe appears to be heading into a Crisis period again. Maybe there are Rhymes of History to be found?

nietzche, writing eloquently about his will to power to escape the emptiness and insecurities that constantly dragged him down because he rejected support, the first Uber-Individualist, a premonition. And because he felt they rejected him, by not being him - his parents, sibling, academia, he became a lonely wolf in the mountains trying to look up, through non-stop prose, and self-rants, projecting his personal struggles into history and art. probably should be read as such, like a description of a heaven & hell cosmology, dante, milton, or the infinitely thinner more narrow and vapid world of hitler's struggles. a similarly needy broken child-man, but nietzche, like jesus, suffering it all from the perspective of a giant compassionate mind. nietzsche unlike buddha, born into turbulence, rather than a luxurious courtly palace. yes i agree with russell, he is best read as a novelist, autobiographical, waxing lyrical as he projects his fragile ego upon us all. and as he does, he notices all the conceits we live by, how so much of religion denigrates true wisdom, commercialises it.

Very instructive! For me, the heart of Russel's analysis is to be found here: King Lear on the verge of madness said : "I will do such things, what they are yet, I know not, but they shall be the terror of the Earth". This is Nietzsche's philosophy in a nutshell. It never occured to Nietzsche that the lust for power, with wich he endows his superman, is itself an outcome of fear. Those who do not fear there neighbors, see no neccessity to tyranise over them. Men who have conquered fear have not the frantic quality of Nietzsche artist tyran and heros who tries to enjoy music and massacre while their hearts are filled with dread of the inevitable palace revolution. The thing that Bertrand Russell fails to see is that unsatisfatoriness, cruelty and an appetit for destruction is at the heart of every dynamic, vibrant healthy nations. No nation or empire were ever built on compassion and pardon. These are good values for established societies framed by laws and administrative forces which are the ossified remains of true free energy and vitality. Nietzsche isn't concerned with maintaing our society as it is. And for our enjoyment, he's pointing in a new direction, which is a breath of fresh air compared to the same abramanic religion overworn soporific themes. You can build on love though. Love is the only all encompassing positive value. I fall for Buddah's conclusion. I believe Russell's insight that Nietzsche philosophy is built on fear, which makes it a little less appealing to me now. Nevertheless, all evolution on a path or another is made of destruction, and wether anyone likes it or not, humans are full of love but also the most vile, cruel and unforgiving of all creatures, which is confirm everyday by our position in the natural order of thing nowadays. Very few philosopher dwell on the violence contained in human nature. Nietzsche is one of the few who acknowledge our darker qualities to show a path that is probably closer to the real human nature and which makes innumerable aspects of his philosophy still very appealling, modern and topical to this day.

I wonder if someone can help with my confusion... Russell says that from Nietzsche's perspective "In a fight of all against all, the victor is likely to possess certain qualities which Nietzsche admires, such as courage, resourcefulness and strength of will. But if the men who do not possess these aristocratic qualities (who are the vast majority) band themselves together, they may win in spite of their individual inferiority. In this fight of the collective *canaille* against the aristocrats, Christianity is the ideological front, as the French Revolution is the fighting front. We ought therefore to oppose every kind of union among the individually feeble, for fear lest their combined power should outweigh that of the individually strong." However, my understanding of Nietzsche is that he takes the opposite view of Christianity; that it produces servile individuals, content with characteristics that should be rejected as vices, promoting them as virtue. So what is it? Does Christianity produce of class of beta men, who value weakness (as meekness), servility (as forgiveness). Or does it, coversely, produce the ideological basis upon which lesser men may - as a collective - overthrow their masters? My understanding is the former, but Russell seems to argue the latter.

It is interesting for Russell to probe into the realm of Nietzsche's psychology with perhaps the same zest that Nietzsche himself probed into the psyche of the culture and the society of his age. On the other hand, while Russell may have been right in his assessment of Nietzsche's innermost fears as underlying his philosophy (i.e. when discussing Nietzsche's critique of religion, state and women) in his quest for objectivity Russell still comes across as being somewhat harsh on his assessment of Nietzsche's character. While he argues a number of valid points for and against Nietzsche's philosophy, Russell's critique of the philosopher himself falters from being definitive; in order to be so, his critique of Nietzsche's thinking would have to probe in the times and into the cultural experience that influenced and informed Nietzsche's thinking, as well as on any psychological disorder that he may have endured. (I suspect that he suffered from either GAD and/or ASD, in addition to his syphilis...) As an exposé of his reasons for disliking certain aspects from Nietzsche's philosophy as a by-product of Nietzsche's seemingly intolerant nature this chapter does succeed however, in presenting Russell's view on the subject.

Bertrand is very clear and his criticism is accurate to his knowledge. Today would yield even more support for the fact that success of races, nations and individuals have been proven to be primarily due to proximity to opportunities and not some innate superiority. The worship of "winners' is seriously misplaced, then and now. The idea that the warrior or billionaire "winner" with their obsessiveness, ruthlessness and lack of empathy represents an ideal we should strive to attain is just wrong. This stance doesn't mean one is pro-Christian values, on the contrary, much of Nietzsche's critique of Xtianity is accurate and agreed on by Russell. But science is now adding to our understanding of what makes for healthy minds and healthy cultures. Clearly Nietzsche was a tough talking sycophant of the "winners" and the world he promotes makes little sense as an ideal. Besides we no longer live in that type of world. Ours grows smaller and other humans are our primary environment. Nietzsches condescension of women says everything about him. He refuses to except the environmental factors leading to the situation and then blames the less fortunate instead of recognizing that the "fortune" is the primary factor in everything he wants to place the praise and blame on the "will" of the individual. Like Christians blaming sin or New Agers blaming your karma for your plight. Yet he is blind to the fact that the "will" is just another environmental factor of "fortune" which can be changed. As Russell points out, Nietzsche is arguing from an emotional place, not a factual one and in my opinion puts him closer to the religious argument than a rational one. Russell points out the difficulty in supporting the opposing idea, but today there is much more weighty information.

Russell and Nietzsche were in essence dealing with double edged swords, as all philosophers must. The idea of universal love is double edged since loving an enemy can enable him to continue his brutality . But herein lies the a potential synthesis: it is in HOW we “love” our enemy -tough love may be the solution . To abandon an abuser may wake him up. The aristocracy theme too is a double edged sword ⚔️. How can N both so beautifully liberate us from ourselves yet also agree with a slave master Paradigm ? Mediocrity can be found in both slave and master , as well as brilliance . Herein lies my attempt at synthesis: new education models that incorporate all ways of learning, more freedom of self exploration , more hands on project oriented learning and reverence and care for the natural world as a key component of curriculum . I am afraid that as much as N steered his readers from dogma he at times created a new one breaking his own rules . As with his views on women pettiness is often a symptom of early childhood deprivation of authentic education and religious programming . Another double edged sword he wielded at half the worlds population. I call this double edged sword the mechanistic vs organic (spontaneous) view of human experience.

This is such a one-sided, sophistic interpretation of Nietzche which was constructed only in justification of the Nazi ideology. For example, the dialogue Russel constructs of what Buddha would supposedly say in response to Nietzche was often exactly what Nietzche himself preached (i.e., of loving your enemy, which he described as noble in Thus Spoke Zarathustra). Meanwhile, Russel presents Nietzche as consistent (at least moreso than Schopenhauer), while his inconsistency might be in fact the most consistent thing about him - this itself could have made a better rebuttal, but Russel completely missed it.
