In The Birth of Tragedy and his other early writings on the Greeks, Nietzsche was working toward a conception of politics based on articulation of the paradoxes underlying the human quest for identity in a radically temporal existence. In Nietzsche's view, tragedy provided a form of political education helping maintain the agonistic principle by pointing toward a balance between creation of stable identities and appreciation of the full diversity of life
