Philosophie als Text - Zur Darstellungsform der "Gotzen-Dammerung" - 67

This monograph examines the meaning and function of textuality and the aesthetic form of presentation in philosophy based on a close reading of selected passages from Nietzsche'sTwilight of the Idols. Drawing on philosophical and textual criticist theories, the study demonstrates the philosophical-cognitive valence of aesthetic forms of representation as well as the key role of self-referentiality in Nietzsche's philosophy.
