12Nietzsche and the Philology of the Future (review)Review of Metaphysics 55 (2): 412-412. 2001.This work will be of interest to, and should be studied by, a wider audience than its title may initially suggest.

Each of the five chapters following its substantial Introduction explores some single aspect of these writings, and they center respectively on Nietzsche’s “Homer and Classical Philology,” his n…Read more

32Society as a Way of LifeThe Monist 83 (4): 552-606. 2000.How might we think about relationships between philosophy as a way of life and the domain of the political? Or, since there are clearly, and importantly, multiple understandings of philosophy as a way of life and multiple aspects of the domain of the political, let me put my question somewhat more narrowly as: How might we think about relationships between the kind of ongoing work of self-cultivation and self-transformation which has been at least one continuing dimension of philosophy in the We…Read more

106The Force of FreedomPolitical Theory 27 (3): 299-333. 1999.In ancient times, when persuasion played the role of public force, eloquence was necessary.

118Review of David mikics, The Romance of Individualism in Emerson and Nietzsche (review)Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews 2004 (9). 2004.All students of Nietzsche know of his profound admiration for Emerson’s writing. However, as Stanley Cavell has observed, this knowledge has mostly been repressed or ineffective; which is to say that the extent, depth, and specificity of Emerson’s influence upon Nietzsche has remained largely unacknowledged and unassessed. In the course of the past decade or so, owing in large part to the influence of Cavell’s own work on Emerson (and Nietzsche), this situation has begun to change. Emerson’s wor…Read more
