Pious Nietzsche: Decadence and Dionysian Faith (Paperback) (ISBN: 9780253218742) Benson, Bruce Ellis Quantity Available: 1
Book Description: Indiana University Press, United States, 2008. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 235 x 165 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Bruce Ellis Benson puts forward the surprising idea that Nietzsche was never a godless nihilist, but was instead deeply religious. But how does Nietzsche affirm life and faith in the midst of decadence and decay? Benson looks carefully at Nietzsche's life history and views of three decadents, Socrates, Wagner, and Paul, to come to grips with his pietistic turn. Key to this understanding is Benson's interpretation of the powerful effect that Nietzsche thinks music has on the human spirit. Benson claims that Nietzsche's improvisations at the piano were emblematic of the Dionysian or frenzied, ecstatic state he sought, but was ultimately unable to achieve, before he descended into madness. For its insights into questions of faith, decadence, and transcendence, this book is an important contribution to Nietzsche studies, philosophy, and religion.
