| Abstract | |
This dissertation for the Masters Degree intents to investigate the statute that the book The Birth of Tragedy assumes in the work of Nietzsche, from the analysis that the philosopher himself made on this book in the late period of his thinking. Trough an investigation of the way his ideas about the beginning of the tragedy in the Greek Antiquity connects with the Metaphysics of Will of Schopenhauer, we intent to understand Nietszche´s late interpretations, made when he had already severed his connections with his former master, making him the target oh his criticism. In this context, Nietzsche wanted to renew his ideas about the Greek tragedy, hoping to insert them in the affirmative face of his last and most ambitious project: the transvaluation of all values. We avaliated this nietzschean proceeding, i.e., to retake his first work from differents readings, and investigate the reasons these interpretations reveals ambiguities. In a first instance, we try to demonstrate that, after mingling his owns intuitions with the pessimistic philosophy of Schopenhauer, the avaliations of The Birth of Tragedy must pass by the grind of the auto-criticism. After that, we research how Nietzsche, from this moment on, justify his book, make appear its positive face, ie, translate the dionisiac in a philosophical pathos, in a way that it makes possible to him to justify his affirmation that The Birth of Tragedy was his first transvaluation of all values.
