An ambitious venture into Nietzsche's envisioned philosophy for the future.

Nietzsche advocated for a post-theistic "philosophy of the future"--a new approach to human reality that would bend Western thought away from nihilism in a life-affirming, value-creative direction. His early demise left this endeavor only just begun. In Nietzsche Pursued, Richard Schacht examines Nietzsche's revisionist approach to familiar philosophical topics, exploring how some may be further pursued in Nietzschean ways.

Each chapter focuses on one topic that is central to Nietzsche's vision of what philosophy can and should be and do. Among them: his kind of naturalism, humanity, perspectivism, morality, and music. Building on his analysis in Nietzsche's Kind of Philosophy, Schacht invites readers to see with new appreciation the ongoing significance of Nietzsche's thought for philosophy's future.
