Abstract

Abstract: The poet of ‘dionysian spirit', Nietzsche has a tragic thinking that combines metaphors, sentences, parables, and aphorisms leaving no room for any dogmatic truth. Alien to Platonic thinking and akin to anti-metaphysical ideas, his works manifested acute interest in differences and unfaltering opposition to that “scientific sameness”.

Keywords: Nietzsche; tragic; joy; laughter; science
