The Agonist

This Spring 2011 issue of The Agonist is devoted to Nietzsche’s philosophy, with particular emphasis on eternal return, temporality, interpretation, and cultural critique. The issue also includes a translation of Nietzsche’s early text “The Greek Music Drama,” highlighting his engagement with aesthetics and ancient culture, as well as an exegetical essay on Nietzsche’s call to “Mediterraneanize” thought. A substantial review section situates Nietzsche in dialogue with modern debates on time, technology, nihilism, and sensation. Overall, the issue combines rigorous scholarship, close textual reading, and contemporary philosophical reflection.
