4Nietzsche's System (review)Review of Metaphysics 50 (2): 420-420. 1996.The debate continues as to whether Nietzsche is a proto-postmodernist, who rejects truth, metaphysics, and objective values, or a thinker still part of the philosophical tradition, offering us a picture of how the world is actually put together. Richardson enters this fray with an ambitious project to lay out the implicit system running through Nietzsche's work. The system consists in an ontology around which his other views are organized. A key problem here is making such claims to knowledge ab…Read more

Metaphysics, Epistemology, and Value Theory: Critique and Nietzsche's KantianismDissertation, Temple University. 1995.My thesis is that Nietzsche holds a version of transcendental idealism. This project was motivated by several concerns. First, I noted the widely diverse and contradictory readings attributed to Nietzsche in the literature. I wanted to make sense of these various readings and resolve the conflicts as best I could. Second, I wanted to try to make Nietzsche as internally consistent as possible. For instance, if Nietzsche really abandons metaphysics wholesale, why does he seem to hold certain metap…Read more

37Nietzsche and Metaphysics (review)Review of Metaphysics 51 (2): 420-421. 1997.This is a collection of essays devoted to the issue of Nietzsche’s complex relationship to metaphysics.

He goes on to wonder whether or not Nietzsche “remains prisoner to the categories that he overturns”. Was Nietzsche successful in overcoming metaphysics, or was he, as Heidegger claims, the last exemplar of the metaphysics of the subject?

9Nietzsche and the Philosophers (edited book)Routledge. 2016.Nietzsche is undoubtedly one of the most original and influential thinkers in the history of philosophy. With ideas such as the overman, will to power, the eternal recurrence, and perspectivism, Nietzsche challenges us to reconceive how it is that we know and understand the world, and what it means to be a human being. Further, in his works, he not only grapples with previous great philosophers and their ideas, but he also calls into question and redefines what it means to do philosophy. Nietzsc…Read more
