This volume consists of the revised and expanded versions of the
papers presented at the International Conference "Nietzsche On
Instinct and Language", held at the Universidade Nova de Lisboa
(Portugal) in December 2009. The list of contributors includes top
Nietzsche scholars, like Werner Stegmaier, Patrick Wotling, and
Scarlett Marton. The volume as a whole represents a fresh look at
Nietzsche's attempt to connect language to the instinctive activity
of the human body. Four of the papers focus on Nietzsche's early
Nachlass notes and writings, including The Birth of Tragedy and On
Truth and Lying in a Non-Moral Sense; the other seven deal with his
mature views on this important subject, especially in Beyond Good
and Evil, The Gay Science, and the Nachlass. In focusing on how
Nietzsche tries to dissolve the traditional opposition between
instinct and language, as well as between instinct and
consciousness and instinct and reason, the different papers
consider, from this viewpoint, such Nietzschean themes as morality,
value, the concept of philosophy, dogmatism, naturalization,
metaphor, affectivity and emotion, health and sickness, tragedy,
and laughter.
