Individuo, rappresentazione, soggetto. Nietzsche lettore di Descartes

Abstract

In this article we will deepen the Nietzschean reading of Descartes, to emphasize the similarities and differences between the two philosophers in their thematization of the role of subjectivity. We will first analyze the presence of Descartes in the corpus of Nietzsche, and then approach the Cartesian philosophy through the same Nietzschean categories. In doing so, despite the different perspective, the continuity between the modern Cartesian philosophy and the Nietzchean contemporary one will emerge clearly.
