The Buddhism of Wagner and Nietzsche and their indebtedness to Schopenhauer
That Schopenhauer's view of Buddhism influenced Wagner's and Nietzsche's Buddhism seems a commonplace among scholars. However, there seem to be no studies which actually demonstrated this, showing how Schopenhauer was their main source of Buddhism compared to the other Buddhist texts they read. In this article, I aim to fill this gap, analysing Wagner's and Nietzsche's Buddhism in the light of the sources of Buddhism they read. This will allow me…
Pessimism and Eternity
Bringing into dialogue the philosophical systems of Schopenhauer and Nietzsche cannot do without investigating pessimism and eternity – issues to which both thinkers attached great significance. The authors analysed in this essay, Martin Morgenstern and Christopher Janaway, partly touch on such issues. Unfortunately, both perpetuate the long-standing opposition between Schopenhauer’s supposed hopeless pessimism and Nietzsche’s life-affirming phil…
Wagner's Animal Ethics and Its Debt to Schopenhauer
Richard Wagner's animal ethics is an underresearched issue within Wagner scholarship. In this article, I aim to fill this gap. In particular, I will demonstrate that, by drawing on Schopenhauer's philosophy, Wagner indicated a path to elaborate an animal ethics. First, I will reconstruct Schopenhauer's animal ethics, showing how it was deeply imbued with tenets of Brahmanism and Buddhism. Second, I will deal with Wagner's animal ethics, illustrat…
O espírito livre de Nietzsche e o gênio de Schopenhauer
Este artigo tem o objetivo de mostrar as semelhanças entre o espírito livre de Nietzsche e o gênio de Schopenhauer. Em primeiro lugar, ambos compartilham de uma abordagem mística do conhecimento: perdem sua individualidade e identificam-se aos objetos do conhecimento com o intuito de obter conhecimento do mundo. Em segundo lugar, ambas as figuras (gênio e espírito livre) encontram-se associadas à loucura. Em terceiro lugar, o espírito livre e o g…
The gnoseological meaning of Nietzsche’s eternal return and the similarities with Emerson’s thought
This article aims to show how Nietzsche’s theory of the eternal return is a post-metaphysical gnoseology. It also aims to demonstrate how, in developing this theory, Nietzsche may have been inspired by Ralph Waldo Emerson. For both Emerson and Nietzsche, being is continuously becoming in a circular movement. The enlightened man, wanting to attain knowledge of reality, must reproduce in himself this circular movement, which involves always experim…
Nietzsche and Buddhist Philosophy
The studies on Nietzsche and Buddhism in the Nietzsche literature are rather recent. The first English monograph on the subject was Freny Mistry's Nietzsche and Buddhism: Prolegomenon to a Comparative Study (Berlin: De Gruyter, 1981), followed by Robert G. Morrison's Nietzsche and Buddhism: A Study in Nihilism and Ironic Affinities (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 1997). While Mistry's study focuses on the Buddhist and the Nietzschean theories o…
