Der Spruch ist von #Nietzsche, Götzen-Dämmerung.
Letztendlich geht es darum aus dem Ängstlichen Mut zu schöpfen, gerade ohne sich aufzuopfern.
Hat mit körperlicher oder psychischer Überlastung/Überforderung nichts zu tun!

If you've got half an hour free during the day, this is a rather interesting conversation with #philosopher, or 'metaethicist', Simon Blackburn. The discussion touches on #ethics, #pragmatism, #truth, #Rorty, #Ryle, #Nietzsche, #perspectivism, and plenty more.
In one section he cites #Russell on #Bradley, which made me think of you @PeterSjostedtH

r u up to speed with DCummings? Who wrote this: I dream of an association of one hundred per centers who know no mercy and want to be called "the destroyers": they apply the measure of their criticism to everything and sacrifice themselves to the truth. Everything that is suspect and false must be brought to light! We don't want to build prematurely, we don't know if we will be able to build and if it would be better not to build at all. There are pessimists, cowards and resigners; we don't want to be among them.
The greatest irony of the proliferation of bad readings of #Nietzsche is that no other philosopher ever took more pains than he in genuinely educating his readership in... how to read!
Glossing Ecce Homo, I see that a) #Nietzsche had issues with #coffee (well, Nietzsche had... issues), going so far as to proclaim "No meals between meals, no coffee: Coffee spreads darkness", whereas b) "If one seeks relief from unbearable pressure, one is to eat hashish".

Pohdiskelin aamulenkillä, että olisikohan korkea aika kuopata Teräsmiehen kaltainen fyysiseen väkivaltaan perustuva supersankarikonsepti ja alkaa tässäkin genressä arvostamaan enemmän henkisiä arvoja?
Maalailin mielessäni edelleen toki huomiota herättävästi pukeutuvan viittasankarin, joka ammentaa voimansa menneiden vuosisatojen moraalifilosofien tuotannosta ja tainnuttaisi vihamiehensä silkalla jaarittelulla. Hänen kryptoniittinsa voisi olla hänen narsistinen omahyväisyytensä.

If someone takes the moral high-ground, he must also be held to these higher standards, probably even more so.

A torinói ló 2011
Nietzsche Torino'dayken, hareket etmeyi reddettiği için arabacı tarafından dövülen bir ata tanık olur. Nietzsche atın yanına koşar, ona sarılır ve hıçkıra hıçkıra ağlamaya başlar. Büyük zorluklarla hayvandan uzaklaştırılır ve o andan itibaren sonsuza kadar sessiz kalır. Bu olaydan sonra büyük filozof hayatının son on bir yılını bir akıl hastanesinde geçirir. Filmde Nietzsche hakkındaki hikaye burada sona erer ve ana karakter aynı ata dönüşür.

"Culture is not in me; I am in culture. And morality is part of culture—that’s why I can point it, appeal to it, feel its pressure. It’s bigger than me and will exist long after me.

"Ask A Left Nietzschean: Is Nietzsche's "Amor Fati" a Reactionary or Revolutionary Concept?"
wir befinden uns in einer zeit in der der mensch keine andere wahl mehr hat als sich selbst zu überwinden um als spezies zu überleben
#nietzsche hat das schon vor über 100 jahren geschrieben
Okay, just One More Paragraph of #Barthes ; the second and final part of the section called "Brio".
It begins:
"The _brio_ of the text (without which, after all, there is no text) is its _will to bliss_..."
Now "bliss" here is «jouissance», which is the more orgasmic kind of pleasure, in contrast to the milder and more civilized kind which is «plaisir».
Along with the very Nietzschean "will to" («volonté de», as in «volonté de puissance»), we get a delightful alternative to the Will to Power: the Will to Climax.
"..._will to bliss_: just where it exceeds demand, transcends prattle [le babil], and whereby it attempts to overflow, to break through the constraint of adjectives -- which are those doors of language through which the ideological and the imaginary come flowing in."
The notion of overflowing, of surplus, is very Zarathustra ("I teach you the friend and his overflowing heart"). I didn't really get the thing about adjectives, though; why those rather than verbs or nouns?
I asked ChatGPT 4.0, as one sometimes does these days, and it said inter alia that adjectives "give color, texture, mood, judgment, and shape to the otherwise neutral facts that nouns and verbs present. In other words, adjectives provide a sense of subjective interpretation and perspective." I thought that was pretty plausible.
It remains odd to me, though, that the doors through which subjectivity flow in are seen as _constraints_ which the overflowing abundance of the Will to Bliss wants to break through.
Again perhaps this is more poetry than truth-claim, and I shouldn't worry about it too much. But on the other hand perhaps Barthes really wants me to think about this overflowing bliss as something opposed to or at least constrained by "the ideological and imaginary" (or the doors that allow those to flow in). I'm not sure what that would look like.
In the original, it is not literally to "break through the constraint of adjectives"; it is rather (at least in this edition) «de forcer la main mise des adjectifs», which is (I think?) a bit overloaded between "to force the hand" and "to overcome the stranglehold" (whence presumably Miller's calmer "constraints").
Not sure yet if that helps any. :)
#Barthes #Nietzsche #bliss #reading #amreading #writing #text
Good link to Nietzsche; my American Analytic School training points out that "subjective" and "existential" are generally considered rather applicable to much of Nietzsche.
Of course Barthes knows this, so we are left to think that he is either making, or taking for granted, some deeper point about the important differences between the three terms, which is basically left as an exercise for the reader.
Whee!
He brings Nietzsche in here, which feels extremely appropriate as for instance Zarathustra raises the same question as to say truth vs poetry as this does.
"This 'for me' is neither subjective nor existential , but Nietzschean ('. . . basically, it is always the same question: What is it _for me_?. . .')."
My latest public philosophy piece: for Nietzsche, our attitude about free will matters more than whether we have it.

Many have heard of #Nietzsche’s words, "God is dead” yet are not familiar with how rich this lament is, readin context.
He regarded the "death of God" as a catastrophe, not something to celebrate at all.
#Nietzsche on #Death of #God :
"Have you not heard of that madman who lit a lantern in the bright morning hours, ran to the market place, and cried incessantly:
"I seek God! I seek God!"
As many of those who did not believe in God were standing around just then, he provoked much laughter."

Here’s an excerpt: https://philosophynow.org/issues/94/The_Twin_Souls_of_Oscar_Wilde_and_Friedrich_Nietzsche
It is probably a mistake to read #mythology on a sociological level, and more accurate to read it on a psychological one. That said, it's not like there is a clean line between the two, and there is certainly a fair amount of traditionalism and nostalgia in #LoTR that could lend itself to a conservative point of view.
The Nazis did the same with #Nietzsche, completely ignoring his abhorrence of German nationalism and repeated denunciations of antisemitism.

The Twilight of Nietzsche
Unlike conventional philosophers, #Nietzsche had no unified, coherent theory. He didn’t proceed in a methodical, calm manner, advancing to a carefully delineated conclusion. He never encumbered his prose with technical expressions, jargon or cloudy terminology. No plodding #Kant or #Hegel was he. He was a mystic and a seer, advocate of the Übermensch, the ‘will to power’, ‘eternal recurrence’ and the Antichrist

When does the licence over the complete works of #Dewey expire so this can be done for his writings also?
Of all modern thinkers, Dewey's works especially *should* be freely available in a format that lends itself to an agreeable reading experience. It's hard to imagine that his own spontaneous reaction to the potential of the internet would have been "Put a paywall on my stuff."
