Nietzsche's genealogical method: Presentation and application

Research output: Working paper/PreprintWorking paper

Abstract

Nietzsche is not considered to be a methodologist. To talk about his method almost seems a contradiction in terms. In our days, when his popularity is again at its height, there is a lot of talk about his style, among other things, but no discussion of his "method". (2) And yet, one of the most influential thinkers of our age, Michel Foucault has read and used Nietzsche just in this way, as an inventor of a new method: genealogy.
