O knihe
This thesis analyses Friedrich Nietzsche's (1844-1900) development of an art of living indebted to classical and Hellenistic philosophies in The Gay Science. Nietzsche's debt to the ancients revolves around their shared conception of philosophy as an "art of healing the soul".1 The philosopher as therapist or physician is one who cares for the soul in the same way the medical doctor cares for the body. While the theme of the philosophical physician is a constant presence in Nietzsche's oeuvre, his most direct engagement with ancient therapies occurs throughout the 'free-spirit trilogy', which culminates in 1882's The Gay Science.2 The ancient therapeutic tradition grants Nietzsche a standpoint from which he can await a "philosophical physician in the exceptional sense of that word".3 Compared with his and our contemporaries, this orientation radically alters what is at stake in the practice of philosophy, in Nietzsche's words, not "'truth' but something else-let us say, health, future, growth, power, life".
