The Concept of Culture of Friedrich Nietzsche

Andrzej Kucner

Abstract

The paper constains analysis of relations between philosophical categorias of nature and culture ad perceived by Friedrich Nietzsche. It also presents the links between them in the light of philosopher’s reflections regarding sources of the philosopher’s reflections regarding sources of the ancient culture (Greek and Judaic), its further influences on the contemporary European culture development and the place it occupies in the positive philosophy of Nietzsche, determined by his notion of a superior human being. I have examine an extremely deterministic view of the author of Antichrist, concerning such problems as freedom, responsibility, biological foundations of culture creation, and condition which, according to Nietzsche – enable us to avoid contradictions between the phenomenon of culture creation, and conditions which – according to Nietzsche – enable us to avoid condradictions between the phenomenon of culture (regarding human being only) and an instinctive sphere of activity  stimulation characteristic of all living organisms.

Keywords:
