Nietzsche and the Methodological Fictions
The paper offers a systematic interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche’s reflections on language and logic by arguing that they function as methodological fictions grounded in a psychophysiological account of cognition. It first shows that Nietzsche’s early claim that language is fundamentally rhetorical, while still shaped by Kantian assumptions, generates a tension between the metaphorical character of concepts and the logical requirement of unity…

Nietzsche in Brazil
The reception of Nietzsche’s philosophy in Brazil was marked by a remarkable phenomenon: the invention of a unique lexicon that not only translated but also reinvented his key concepts, distinctly shaping the appropriation of his thought in the Latin American context. This article investigates the formation of this lexicon, focusing on the different translations of the concept of Übermensch (such as sobrehomem, prohomem, super-homem, Além-Homem, …
Nietzsche and the Transcendence of His Time
The article argues that Nietzsche's philosophical discourse surpasses modernity without fitting into postmodernity, because this thinker criticizes the articulation axes of modernity, as interpreted by Habermas, and distances itself from the postmodern condition from Lyotard's perspective. We emphasize Nietzsche’s rejection of traditional discursive bias through his critique of the specular subject. He introduces the concept of a “social structur…

Drawing on the Arabic original of his magnum opus “The Gifts of the All-Merciful in Understanding the Degrees of Being”, as well as related manuscript materials, the study presents Ukrainian translations of selected dream narratives accompanied by historical and philosophical com…

Nietzsche on the “Sovereign Individual” and Agency
Nietzsche characterizes the sovereign individual using the metaphysical and moral language of free will and responsibility. It is, therefore, unsurprising that this description has sparked significant controversy among Nietzsche’s commentators—particularly in Anglo-American scholarship—as it appears to contradict the vast majority of his positions on these subjects. First, the article presents the two principal currents of interpretation: on one …
Nietzsche and the Seventh Art in Brazil
Considering the work of Brazilian filmmaker Júlio Bressane as the most representative for a study of the reception of Nietzschean philosophy in Brazilian cinema, this article aims to analyze the film Days of Nietzsche in Turin. To this end, we examine the filmmaker’s strategies for transposing a theoretical corpus into visual language, seeking to identify, throughout this process, the interpretative frameworks that inform his reading of Nietzsche…
