Community and Animality in the Ancient Cynics
Conflict and Contest in Nietzsche’s Philosophy
Conflict and Contest in Nietzsche’s Philosophy is a collection inspired by the 2014 Friedrich Nietzsche Society conference on “Nietzsche, Love, and War.” However, the content of the book is broader than the conference, encompassing the themes of conflict and contest in Nietzsche’s philosophy as a whole. The volume is divided into four main parts: part 1: “Nietzsche’s Ontology of Conflict”; part 2: “Conflict and Culture: Nietzsche’s Agon and the G…

Nietzsche y el posthumanismo
En Más allá del bien y del mal Nietzsche concibe la naturalización del ser humano, su retraducción en la naturaleza, como una experiencia liberadora en la que éste redescubre la naturaleza como una fuerza creativa y transformadora incorporada en él. Para Nietzsche, la cuestión del futuro del ser humano depende de su capacidad de re-incorporar la naturaleza. La naturaleza humana no es para Nietzsche algo dado del cuerpo (humano), algo que pertenec…

Nietzsche's Animal Philosophy: Culture, Politics, and the Animality of the Human Being
This book explores the significance of human animality in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche and provides the first systematic treatment of the animal theme in Nietzsche's corpus as a whole Lemm argues that the animal is neither a random theme nor a metaphorical device in Nietzsche's thought. Instead, it stands at the center of his renewal of the practice and meaning of philosophy itself. Lemm provides an original contribution to on-going deba…
Natureza, caos e transformação: Para uma antropologia filosófica transformadora
O objetivo deste artigo é esboçar os traços de uma antropologia nietzschiana que sustente um processo de transformação humana. Na primeira parte, antropologia literária, argumento que sua antropologia resgata a noção grega arcaica da natureza como arte ou cultura. Na segunda parte, antropologia científica, apresento o método científico de Nietzsche e de Freud em sua aproximação filosófica da questão da natureza. Na terceira e última parte, antrop…

Homo Natura: Nietzsche, Philosophical Anthropology and Biopolitics
Highlights the relevance of Nietzsche's thinking about human nature for contemporary debates in biopolitics and posthumanism Innovatively engages Nietzsche's philosophy with contemporary debates on philosophical anthropology, psychoanalysis, gender studies, biopolitics and posthumanism Offers a new reading of parrhesia (truth speaking): from the ancient cynics via Nietzsche's idea of Redlichlkeit (honesty/probity), to Foucault's recently publishe…
Cultura e economia em Nietzsche
Discuto a possibilidade de superar a dominação por meio de uma diferenciação entre duas distintas abordagens econômicas da animalidade do ser humano, as quais correspondem aos modos contrastantes de politizar a vida na cultura e na civilização. Ao passo que a economia da civilização representa um tratamento exploratório da animalidade, cujo objetivo é a autopreservação do grupo ao preço de normalizar o indivíduo, a economia da cultura denota uma …
Friedrich Nietzsche
Readers of Giorgio Agamben would agree that the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) is not one of his primary interlocutors. As such, Agamben’s engagement with Nietzsche is different from the French reception of Nietzsche’s philosophy in Michel Foucault, Gilles Deleuze and Georges Bataille, as well as in his contemporary Italian colleague Roberto Esposito, for whom Nietzsche’s philosophy is a key point of reference in their thinkin…
Michel Foucault
Michel Foucault begins to play a major role in Giorgio Agamben’s work starting with his book Homo Sacer . Agamben’s thinking about biopolitics, sovereignty, governmentality and form-of-life is deeply influenced by the work of Foucault, as evidenced by his sustained engagement with Foucault’s texts throughout the entire Homo Sacer series. One commentator notes that the trajectory of Agamben’s work since the mid-1990s ‘makes evident that it is proc…
Is Nietzsche a Naturalist: Or How to Become a Responsible Plant
In his recent discussion of Nietzsche's naturalism, Brian Leiter invokes examples from the world of plants to demonstrate that human behavior and values are causally determined by "heritable psychological and physiological traits," or what he also refers to as "type-facts." The objective of this essay is to present a fuller picture of what Nietzsche actually has to say about plants by providing an overview of his textual references to the world o…
Nietzsche’s agon for politics
Nietzsche y la biopolítica: Cuatro lecturas de Nietzsche como pensador biopolítico
La recepción durante el siglo XXse preguntó si la filosofía nietzscheana era a-, im- o anti-política, es decir, si podía ser asimilada por la democracia, o si era antimoderna, elitista y reaccionaria. El italiano Roberto Esposito ha propuesto leerla como formando e informando el paradigma de la biopolítica. Se discuten cuatro lecturas de esa biopolítica: como formadora del paradigma de la inmunidad, como tanatopolítica, como liberal y neoliberal,…

The Government of Life: Foucault, Biopolitics, and Neoliberalism
This volume focuses on the relation that Foucault established between the ideas of biopower and biopolitics and the studies of governmentality in his last Courses at the Collège de France and in his occasional writings of this period. The essays in this volume adopt and contribute to Foucault’s analysis of biopolitics as a guiding thread to understand why liberalism and neoliberalism is a “government of life.” The essays in this collection, read …

Kritische Theorie und affirmative Biopolitik
Vanessa Lemm verfolgt in ihrem Beitrag »Kritische Theorie und affirmative Biopolitik« die Nietzsche-Lektüren, die Eingang in Horkheimer und Adornos Dialektik der Aufklärung gefunden haben. Am Verhältnis von Geist und Naturbeherrschung, von Bilderdenken und begrifflichem Denken, von Kultur und Zivilisation und nicht zuletzt von Tier und Mensch zeichnet Lemm die unterschiedlichen Wurzeln der Interpretation der Autoren nach. Dabei kommt der Diskussi…
Critical theory and affirmative biopolitics: Nietzsche and the domination of nature in Adorno/Horkheimer
The central problem of enlightenment is that it rests on the domination of nature achieved through the separation of human life from other forms of life by means of instrumental rationality and representational thinking. Instead, the true practice of enlightenment calls for an affirmative biopolitics: a politics of life that contributes to the pluralization of inherently singular forms of life. This article argues that such politics requires, fir…

Nietzsche y el olvido animal
Este ensayo presenta una lectura de la segunda Consideración intempestiva y del segundo ensayo de La genealogía de la moral que revaloriza la importancia del olvido animal en la concepción de la historia y de la política propuesta por Nietzsche. En mi interpretación, el reconocimiento del valor del olvido animal permite a Nietzsche redefinir la memoria como una fuerza artística y la historiografía como un arte de la interpretación.
