The authoress analyses the complex and controversial sense of Nietzsche's writings on the concept of truth. On the one hand, the idea of truth is rejected, but on the other, Nietzsche fights against all kinds of historical illusions and defends the clear and true vision of the reality. Nietzsche wants to be truthfull in his refutation of a doctrine of truth.

The article is made of two parts. First, it shows evidence of certain continuity in the flow of commentaries that were made on Nietzsche in the poststructuralist tradition. Here the author focuses on the difference between classical dualism and transgressive dualism, and says that the flow of commentaries is characterized by a diminution of the role of anthropological and normative motifs, such as history, the subject, alienation, criticism and emancipation. On the second part of the article, the author presents criticism to which Nietzsche exposes, 'avant la lettre', the transgressive nature of poststructuralism, using as the premise his own criticism of the attitude of philosophical and artistic decadence. Against this backdrop of the radical contest of the modern world several difficulties of Nietzsche's own ideas are discussed by the author.

This essay attempts at an analysis of Janusz Korczak's Diary, written in the Warsaw ghetto in 1942. These records form an intimate diary and a consciously constructed literary piece, which was conceived as a polemic with 'Also sprach Zarathustra' by Friedrich Nietzsche. At all, it is a piece underspecified as to genre, perhaps intentionally so. Korczak applied in it several literary stratagems he had used before. Given this important observation, the reader can take a different look at certain controversial fragments of this Diary: the author's views on war and death, and, his apparently 'anti-Semitic' opinions. Besides, the Korczak account is confronted with other ghetto documents concerning its author, which were found at a later date.

The paper examines the relationship between the philosophy of F. Nietzsche and transhumanist philosophy. Transhumanism is the branch of thought arguing in favour of human transformation (post-human). Thus, it might seem, that it is derived from the classical idea of the transformation of the man, its goal being a superman (der Übermensch) found in Nietzschean philosophy. However, transhumanism points to five problems in Nietzsche's project. It rejects Nietzschean anti scientific, anti progressive, anti moral and anti social ideas as well as his destructive way of creating the superman. The paper argues that the four objections presented by transhumanists against Nietzsche are ill-founded, while the last one is valid.

The author considers the tradition of nihilism, in its Nietzschean and Heideggerian version, to be of use in interpretation of a number of important phenomena of 20th-century arts and literature. He advocates a thesis that weak ontology, in a variety of versions, has not only been emphatically expressed in modern arts and literature but in fact, has formed their ontological and aesthetic foundations. He focuses on how the various practices, discourses and areas of human expression have attempted at naming the phenomenon which he himself perceives not only in terms of an academic issue but as a keen experience of our time.

The author of the paper shows, by using numerous examples, a connection between Enlightenment and breeding (Zucht) as well as multiple meanings that the notion of breeding acquired in the course of philosophical-cultural reflection. He raises objections against Peter Sloterdijk and refutes his claim that Nietzsche supposedly was a supporter of 'small breeding' because he intuited an inevitable fight over the directions of man's formation.

More often than not, Karl Marx and Friedrich Nietzsche are considered to be antagonists. For K. Marx the analysis of the material conditions of life provides the key to the interpretation of human history. F. Nietzsche sees the analysis of values as the key to the understanding of the development of societal forms. Marx defends egalitarianism; Nietzsche is an enthusiastic advocate of hierarchies. They both differentiate between an authentic and alienated form of life; however, their ideas of authenticity are fundamentally different. In spite of the discrepancies in their understandings of the existence of a society, their analyses of political life of modern society are organized around the metaphor of the theatre. The metaphor of the theatre makes it possible to grasp the difference between an authentic and an alienated form of human life.

Proposed paper explores the message of German voluntarist philosophy in the works of Russian modernist writer Leonid Nikolaievich Andreyev. Its subject matter deals with the philosophical system of two leading figures associated with the concept of ‘will’ – Arthur Schopenhauer and Friedrich Nietzsche – as well as the influence of their teaching on Andreyev’s literary writings. The author of the paper analyses the phenomenon of ‘will’ from the perspective of the aforementioned philosophers, examines its significance in terms of human existence and determines its dominant position in relation to reason. The author subsequently confronts the acquired information with selected prosaic and dramatic texts of the Russian writer and identifies parallels between them. The paper concludes with evidence justifying the interrelation between Andreyev’s work and the German system of thought.

The aim of the present paper is to introduce Michel Foucault’s archaeology as a specific symptomatology. The thesis of symptomatology can be found in Nietzsche’s oeuvre where one can find a lot of papers analysing the relation between Nietzsche’s genealogy and Foucault’s conception of genealogy. However, Nietzsche appears also in the Les Mots et les Choses. This led us to interpreting the role of Nietzsche in Foucault’s archaeology and emphasizing the role of the language and the conception of symptom as a specific sign.
