In 1885 Nietzsche insisted that from now on philosophy was only
acceptable 'as the most general form of history, as an attempt
somehow to describe Heraclitean becoming and to abbreviate it into
signs.' Taking this remark as a starting point, the aim of this
volume is to examine the intricate relationship between Nietzsche's
philosophy of time and his philosophy of history. The questions
that arise include: What are the new conceptions of time that
Nietzsche has to offer? What kind of historian was Nietzsche
himself? What kinds of temporalized histories and historicized
philosophies did he write or fail to write? This collection of
essays, written by fourteen academics including eminent figures
such as John Richardson, Raymond Geuss, Lawrence J. Hatab, and
Andrea Orsucci, constitute essential reading for specialists of
Nietzsche, and will also appeal to a larger audience of
intellectual historians, philosophers and others who are interested
in the development of modern thought.
