Friedrich Nietzsche on Rationality - Dictionary of Arguments
Danto III 56 Rationality/Nietzsche/Danto: According to Nietzsche there are two kinds of people: the sensible and the intuitive person, whereby the first fears intuition and the latter rejects rationality. Rationality is the fate of all enforced intuition and intuition is the source of all prevailing rationality.(1) Danto III 66 Rationality/Apollonian/Dionysian/art/Nietzsche/Danto: Nietzsche's opposition pair of Apollonian/Dionysian equates with that of rationality and irrationality would be too superficial. Ultimately, dreaming is nothing more rational than dancing and the music - which the Greeks grouped together with mathematics - it is no less rational than poetry. >Literature/Nietzsche, >Art/Nietzsche, >">Aesthetics/Nietzsche. Dionysian/Nietzsche/Danto: Nietzsche distinguishes between the barbaric and the Hellenized Dionysian.(2) Danto III 77/78 Rationality/Nietzsche/Danto: Nietzsche never spoke out against rationality or science at any point in his work; he never said about them that they were harmful to life. >Science/Nietzsche. Danto III 159/160 Rationality/Action/Nietzsche/Danto: it is hard to believe that we could ever have planned our actions already carried out by us. >Thinking/Nietzsche. 1. F.
