Ahern, Daniel R.

The Smile of Tragedy : Nietzsche and the Art of Virtue.

State College : Penn State University Press, 2012. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 168 pp. Mailorder only - Alleen verzending mogelijk. Book condition : as new. - In The Smile of Tragedy, Daniel Ahern examines Nietzsche's attitude toward what he called the tragic age of the Greeks, showing it to be the foundation not only for his attack upon the birth of philosophy during the Socratic era but also for his overall critique of Western culture. Through an interpretation of Dionysian pessimism, Ahern clarifies the ways in which Nietzsche sees ethics and aesthetics as inseparable and how their theoretical separation is at the root of Western nihilism. Ahern explains why Nietzsche, in creating this precursor to a new aesthetics, rejects Aristotle's medicinal interpretation of tragic art and concentrates on Apollinian cruelty as a form of intoxication without which there can be no art. Ahern shows that Nietzsche saw the human body as the vessel through which virtue and art are possible, as the path to an interpretation of selflessness, as the means to determining an order of rank among human beings, and as the site where ethics and aesthetics coincide.

AHRENSDORF, P.J.,

Homer on the Gods and Human Virtue. Creating the Foundations of Classical Civilization.

Cambridge University Press, New York, 2014. X,271p. Original gilt titled black cloth with dust wrps. 'Peter Ahrensdorf's Homer on the Gods and Human Virtue is a profound and moving book. His argument will provoke healthy controversy. It will also demand respect for its meticulous attention to intellectual history and scholarly disputes, its fair-mindedness, and its gravitas. The book is gracefully written and intensely argued, exemplifying the courageous wisdom of the poet Homer and the warrior Achilles in reflecting on questions of justice, divine providence, human mortality and human happiness.'
