Nietzsche’s Genealogy of Morals

Title

Nietzsche’s Genealogy of Morals

Creator

Latsidis, Chrysovalantis-Angelos

Abstract

Nietzsche dwells on the origins of bad and good: they were not always used morally but simply as descriptors of reality. How did morals came about? The belief that people have free will is to blame so that the weak can hold the strong accountable behind their resentment. Good became evil. Strength, and enacting our will however provides vitality, which is the Nietzschean essence of life. But is this convincing?
