Friedrich Nietzsche on self
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) approaches self within genealogy and vitalism. He developed genealogical critique, perspectivism, the will to power, and ideals of self-overcoming rather than a systematic doctrine. Systematically, the teaching links morality, culture, nihilism, art into a practical and theoretical whole.
