Puzzles about time - about past, present and future, and the nature
of becoming - have concerned philosophers from the ancient Greeks
to the present day. Yet few have been as radical in their thinking
as Friedrich Nietzsche. "Time and Becoming in Nietzsche's Thought"
explores Nietzsche's approach to temporality, showing that his
metaphorical and literary presentations lend themselves, in
surprising detail, to the debates that have engaged other thinkers.
Like Heraclitus, Nietzsche is a philosopher of becoming who sees
reality as a continual flow of change. Time is an interpretation of
becoming, designed to enable its tensions and fluctuations to be
grasped conceptually by our minds. From this starting point, Robin
Small explores the emergence of sharply contrasting models of
temporality which express differing forms of life. The book
concludes with a return to Nietzsche's Dionysian vision of playful
participation in becoming as a never-ending creation and
destruction.
"Time and Becoming in Nietzsche's Thought" reveals Nietzsche as a
major contributor to our thinking about temporality and its
significance for human life.
