Foucault's intellectual indebtedness to Nietzsche is apparent in
his writing, yet the precise nature, extent, and nuances of that
debt are seldom explored. Foucault himself seems sometimes to claim
that his approach is essentially Nietzschean, and sometimes to
insist that he amounts to a radical break with Nietzsche. This
volume is the first of its kind, presenting the relationship
between these two thinkers on elements of contemporary culture that
they shared interests in, including the nature of life in the
modern world, philosophy as a way of life, and the ways in which we
ought to read and write about other philosophers. The contributing
authors are leading figures in Foucault and Nietzsche studies, and
their contributions reflect the diversity of approaches possible in
coming to terms with the Foucault-Nietzsche relationship. Specific
points of comparison include Foucault and Nietzsche's differing
understandings of the Death of God; art and aesthetics; power;
writing and authorship; politics and society; the history of ideas;
genealogy and archaeology; and the evolution of knowledge.
