Abstract

This paper discusses some elements and arguments of Jorge Polo Blanco’s essay, Anti-Nietzsche. La crueldad de lo político. Polo’s book is analyzed using as a lens the problem of the diversity of characterizations that Nietzsche's philosophy obtains in contemporary philosophical thought and the challenge of evaluating Nietzsche's philosophy in light of our democratic sensitivities. The paper examines the chapters of the work, pointing out some of the inaccuracies and the most problematic aspects of Polo’s "anti-Nietzschean" argumentation, while emphasizing the importance of source research (Quellenforschung) and the history of the editions of Nietzsche’s texts.
