While Nietzsche's works and ideas are relevant across the many
branches of philosophy, the themes of contest and conflict have
been mostly overlooked. Conflict and Contest in Nietzsche's
Philosophy redresses this situation, arguing for the importance of
these issues throughout Nietzsche's work. The volume has three key
lines of inquiry: Nietzsche's ontology of conflict; Nietzsche's
conception of the agon; and Nietzsche's warrior-philosophy. Under
these three umbrellas is a collection of insightful and provocative
essays considering, among other topics, Nietzsche's understanding
of resistance; his engagement with classical thinkers alongside his
contemporaries, including Jacob Burckhardt; his views on language,
metaphor and aphorism; and war, revolt and terror. In bringing
together such topics, Conflict and Contest in Nietzsche's
Philosophy seeks to correct the one-sided tendencies within the
existing literature to read simply 'hard' and 'soft' analyses of
conflict. Written by scholars across the Anglophone and the
European traditions, within and beyond philosophy, this collection
emphasises the entire problematic of conflict in Nietzsche's
thought and its relation to his philosophical and literary
practice.
