The names of history seen in perspective: Nietzsche, Emerson and Roux

Abstract:

between 1881 and 1882, Nietzsche’s thought leads him to elaborate the concept of will to power and the idea of perspectivism, even his the word doesn’t appear, yet, in his writings. We show that the idea of a perspectival view of several idiosyncratic conceptions is the heart of Nietzsche’s conception of perspectivism, insofar as he is both interested in the nature of history, confronting himself to Emerson, and in the nature of evolution, when he discovers Wilhelm Roux.

Keywords:
perspectivism; history; evolution; digestion; humanity; future
