John Richardson here organizes Nietzsche's thinking around the
central and unifying concept of values. Richardson maps in detail
Nietzsche's arguments, which crucially distinguish three basic ways
of valuing.The first is the valuingNietzsche attributes to all
living things, and to us humans in our bodies; Nietzsche insists
that we already value in our drives and affects. The second isour
distinctively human valuing, which we carry out as subjects and
agents; these conscious and worded values are superimposed on those
bodily ones, in ways Nietzsche finds deeply problematic. The third
is the new way of valuing that Nietzsche offers as his lesson from
that diagnosis and critique of our human values; these new values
are centered on a universal affirmation or "Yes," epitomized in the
thought of eternal return.Each of the book's twelve
chaptersexamines a different aspect of one of these ways of
valuing, showing the complexity of Nietzsche's thinking on its
topic, but also its unity and consistency. Incorporating recent
advances in philosophical scholarship on Nietzsche, Richardson's
thought-provoking new interpretation will serve as a vital updated
reference point for future work.
