During his late period, Nietzsche is particularly concerned with
the value that mankind attributes to truth. In dealing with that
topic, Nietzsche is not primarly interested in the metaphysical
disputes on truth, but rather in the effects that the "will to
truth" has on the human being. In fact, he argues that the "faith
in a value as such of truth" influenced Western culture and started
the anthropological degeneration of the human type that
characterizes European morality. To call into question the value of
truth is therefore necessary, if one wants to help mankind to find
her way in the labyrinth of nihilism. In this new addition to
Nietzsche scholarship, Gori explores the origin and aim of the
philosopher's late perspectival thought by merging the theoretical
with the historical approach, with a special focus on the
epistemological debate that influenced Nietzsche. As a result, the
book provides a contextual reading of the issue that supports the
idea that Nietzsche's attitude in addressing the problem of truth
is, in a broad sense, pragmatic.
