Description
Summary:The present work expose the critique of moral values context, made by Nietzsche, emphasizing the importance of genealogic method and its implication on the "concept" of life as Will to power. In Genealogy of Morality, the philosopher develops an investigation that aims understanding not only the origins of moral values - the conditions that allowed the emergence of such values - but make possible that the value of these values themselves must be called into question. Genealogy is fundamental condition, according to Nietzsche, to make possible the advent of a moral way critique of interpreting the world, elaborated by the western philosophical tradition. In this regard, is crucial that we identify the relationship between the genealogical method and the meaning of Will to power based on Nietzsche's writing Genealogy of Morality.
