This book addresses the question of the legacies of Nietzsche's
theories of tragedy as literary genre and of the tragic as
ontological concept. Although The Birth of Tragedy was the most
seminal in this sense, Nietzsche's followers also read, misread,
and appropriated ideas on the tragic in his later works. Taking
seriously the call for the rebirth of the tragic spirit in culture
generally, dramatists, poets, novelists, philosophers, film makers,
and theorists not always acknowledging a debt to Nietzsche
incorporated the Dionysian and the Apollinian, as well as other
aspects of Nietzsche's thinking on tragedy, into their own works.
This volume gives a sampling of the multifaceted and widespread
impact of this aspect of Nietzsche's thought in Eastern as well as
in Western Europe and in the United States.
