Abstract

Book Reviews 311 metaphor and concept explored above all in “On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense,” and, on the other hand, bases a conventionalist-nominalist interpretation of Nietzsche on the intersubjective nature of metaphoric language. Instead, he fittingly identifies a more linear continuity between the English and German philosophers when they are most critical toward the notions of causality and subject. Nonetheless, here the task of “fulfilling” (111) the deconstruction of such concepts and integrating them into a more complex interpretive-perspectivalist paradigm falls upon Nietzsche. The last chapter of the book is a kind of appendix of “comparisons with other interpretations,” specifically those of Karl Löwith, Martin Heidegger, Lou Salomé, Gottfried Benn, Albert Camus, Gilles Deleuze, Pierre Klossowski, and Didier Franck. Although the attempt to trace a historical continuity in one’s own interpretive approach is justified, it nevertheless seems out of place to consider one’s own interpretation of Nietzsche to be on the same level as the above-cited think- ers. Furthermore, five and a half pages are not sufficient to adequately deal with Heidegger, and a serious “comparison” with Löwith or Jaspers cannot happen in four and two pages, respectively.
