The more I read up on this guy, the more I am interested in his philosophy. It does not ring any spiritual bells with me, but it certainly rings a LOT of aesthetic bells – which I suppose is what he intended in the first place. I am reading an essay by Jessica Lewis Luck from Indiana University titled: Ecce Homo: Nietzsche’s Aesthetic Autobiography and its the most fascinating thing I’ve read this year (although it comes nowhere near the Flower Ornament Scripture and my philosophy of religion textbooks).
I am gathering my mental faculties and my current knowledge of this European philosopher and meditating on the ‘aesthetics’ of a new post. Sometime soon an elaboration on my position of the Good Life as a “work of art” will be posted. Good night, all.
