Le Concept de Jeu Dans L’Anthropologie Nietzschéenne: Spiritualité et Dépassement
The Concept of Play in Nietzschean Anthropology: Spirituality and Overcoming
Abstract
This research aims to retrace the different phases that the artistic creation of the artist Paolo Sistilli progresses through the foundation of Nietzschean thought. We will define the main metamorphoses of the central character of Nietzsche's book “Thus Spoke Zarathustra”. What are these concepts?
Why does Nietzsche refer to the Persian fire prophet Zoroaster as the prophet of eternal return? What is the relationship between the two? Is it calling the status of man into question? I refer to the French philosopher Gilles Deleuze: “Dialectics is this art which invites us to recover alienated properties. Everything returns to the
Spirit, as the engine and product of the dialectic; or self-awareness; or even to man as generic.” First, isn’t man a creative artist? We ask ourselves; we try to seek and understand this desire to create. Man has a power within him that requires his liberation. So, can we not say that the human mind is like a child creating meaning? We can understand that Nietzsche reveals the hidden face of man. His identity is hidden through his childish soul. So, can we say that art is a game? Are art and play a way of acting on the world? Can we affirm that the artist is seeking this return to the past? This childish freshness that radiates within him? Is the artist trying to reverse time?
