Abstract
O artigo explora as poucas ocorrências da expressão “vontade do nada” (Wille zum Nichts) nos escritos de Nietzsche e sua relação com as noções de “vontade da verdade” e “ideal ascético”. O objetivo desta pesquisa é mostrar que essas noções estão relacionadas entre si e que descrevem os objetivos do pensamento tardio de Nietzsche. A investigação se concentrará em particular no conceito de “realismo” que aparece nos últimos escritos de Nietzsche, e que pode ser interpretado como uma atitude existencial em relação à vida que contrasta com o niilismo pessimista.
The paper explores the few occurrences of the expression “will to nothingness” (Wille zum Nichts) in Nietzsche’s writings, and its relationship with the notions of “will to truth” and “ascetic ideal.” Aim of this research is to show that these notions are mutually related, and that they outline the objectives of Nietzsche’s late thought. The investigation will focus in particular on the concept of “realism” that appears in Nietzsche’s late writings, and that can be interpreted
as an existential attitude towards life that contrasts pessimistic nihilism.
