The Polish culture made a major contribution to the reception of the will to power of Friedrich Nietzsche. By ‘the will to power’ I mean here both the book with the title The Will to Power and one of the main ideas of Nietzsche’s philosophy. The book was translated into Polish already in 1911. There was also a heated debate on the concept of the will to power among philosophers (e.g. Stanisław Brzozowski), poets (e.g. Leopold Staff) and politicians (e.g. Józef Piłsudski). In this literary-philosophical- political context Nietzsche was regarded as an heir to the Polish Romanticism, his ideas were conceived of as a continuation of the postulates put forward by Adam Mickiewicz and Juliusz Słowacki as well as preparing the ground for acquiring independence of Poland in 1918.

The paper deals with Štúr’s critical assessment of German philosophy of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. Štúr openly blames the ideas coming from this tradition for creating the breeding ground for a massive popularity of Nazi ideology in Germany in 1930s and 1940s. Štúr pays particular attention to the work of J. G. Fichte, A. Schopenahuer, M. Stirner, F. Nietzsche and others. A special focus of his criticism is placed on the role of individualism.

The article argues for the need to give the autonomy to the personal thinking in the domain of philosophy and worldview. The basic assumption is that personal thinking, which contains the weak and particular side of human individual, is one of the fundamental elements of philosophy and worldview but can be expressed in them, because of this weakness and particularity, only in a hidden form. The fact that it must be hidden is the source of deformation of personal thinking not only in public domain of philosophy and worldview but most importantly in the personal thinking itself. Giving the autonomy to it, not only can we purge the public sphere of large areas of falsification but also offer the human individual a chance for a better self-understanding as it enables it to develop without trying to justify itself in public terms. This process seems to be enabled by the fact that the contemporary public culture itself is weakened by relativism, inflation of words and views or the dominance of superficial, popular culture.

Zdaniem Heideggera, myślenie o świecie w kategoriach wartości uniemożliwia rzeczom ukazanie się takimi, jakie są: nie „pozwala rzeczom być”. Filozofia Nietzschego jest dlań filozofią wartości par excellence. Wola mocy (a wszystko co jest, jest wolą mocy) ustanawia w niej wartości jako warunki swego zachowania i wzrostu, czyli wyłącznie ze względu na siebie samą. Wchodząc w spór (Auseinendersetzung) z Nietzscheańską metafizyką, Heidegger stwierdza również, że jest ona kulminacją oraz wypełnieniem dziejów zachodniego myślenia i jako taka najdobitniej wyraża to myślenie o rzeczywistości, które określa epokę współczesną, czyniąc ją epoką spełnionego bezsensu. Odczytuję rozważania Heideggera o wartościach, woli mocy i nihilizmie zarówno jako oryginalną interpretację kluczowych pojęć filozofii Nietzschego, jak i wnikliwą diagnozę współczesności, jej genezy i perspektyw. Wskazuję też na tkwiącą w tejże filozofii możliwość, która w odniesieniu do omawianych kwestii pozwoliłaby, jak sądzę, wejść samemu Nietzschemu w spór z Heideggerem.

According to Heidegger, thinking about the world in terms of values makes it impossible for things to appear as they are. Nietzsche's philosophy is for him the philosophy of value par excellence. The will to power (which includes all that is) establishes values as the conditions of its own preservation and growth. Entering into a critical engagement with Nietzschean metaphysics, Heidegger also notes that it is the culmination and fulfillment of the history of Western thought and, as such, it most clearly expresses the way of thinking about reality that defines the modern period. Accordingly, I read Heidegger's discussion of values, will to power and nihilism as an original interpretation of the key concepts of Nietzsche's philosophy and a thorough diagnosis of our age. Toward the end I also point to one element of that philosophy which would allow Nietzsche enter into a critical engagement with Heidegger.

This paper presents the meaning of the concept of love in philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. Love in its proper form is a kind of intoxication (Rausch), therefore it is an expression of feeling of power. Besides there are also distorted types of love. There are love of the herd, which is one of the modest virtue, and Christian love as manifestation of the greatness weakness. The main aim of this paper is to demonstrate, that despite of relatively few fragments of Nietzsche’s works about love, love in his philosophy is an important component of reality. This applies especially to perfect love, which is manifestation of the being itself in its greatest fullness.

W tekście rozważane są zagadnienie realności i związana z nim tematyka epistemologiczna w trzecim okresie filozofii Fryderyka Nietzschego. Analizując ten obszar filozofii Nietzschego, autor zwraca szczególną uwagę na problem życia. Opisuje go za pomocą metafory pnącej się wzwyż spirali. Metafora ta rozwijana jest przez autora w kontekście koncepcji „ekstatycznego tańca kratofanicznego” Zbigniewa Kaźmierczaka. Autor rozpoczyna rozważania od interpretacji stanowiska Nietzschego na temat trzech władz poznawczych: świadomości, rozumu i języka metafizycznego. Następnie stara się opisać wpływ, jaki — zdaniem filozofa — wywierają one na powstanie koncepcji realności. Z tego powodu przechodzi do analizy struktury woli. W ostatniej części tekstu autor dokonuje analizy koncepcji realności, zestawiając wyniki badań z metaforą spirali.

The paper presents the considerations on question of reality and the related epistemological topics in the third period of development of Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophy. While analysing this area of Nietzsche’s philosophy, the author of the paper pays special attention to the issue of life, which can be described as an ever-ascending spiral. The author elaborates on this metaphor by putting it in the context of a concept of an ecstatic kratophanic dance, as presented by Zbig- niew Kaźmierczak. The author begins his considerations with an interpretation of Nietzsche’s views on three cognitive organs, consciousness, reason and metaphysical language, and their role in creation of the concept of reality. The next step is a description of the structure of the will. In the last part of the paper, the author presents an analysis of the concept of reality by comparing the results with the metaphor of an ever-ascending spiral.

Artykuł próbuje zinterpretować sprzeczności dotyczącego Boga i człowieka, zawarte w pismach Mistrza Eckharta, jako rezultat egzystencjalnego poszukiwania zbawczej mocy. Moc jako taka ma ambiwalentną naturę. Z jednej strony jest mocą tego, co jest, z drugiej mocą (samo)przezwyciężenia (tego, co jest). Myśl Eckharta jest myślą egzystencjalną, obejmującą całego człowieka, łącznie z jego elementem nieświadomym. To wyjaśnia, dlaczego, szukając zbawczej mocy, mistyk nie do końca był świadomy ambiwalentnej natury mocy. Artykuł przedstawia, jak Eckhart, kierując się pragnieniem zbawczej mocy, akceptuje, a następnie przezwycięża kolejne ujęcia Boga i człowieka. Ukazane są trzy główne, funkcjonujące w studiach nad Eckhartem interpretacje jego sprzeczności („apofatyczna”, „edukacyjna” i „metodologiczna”) oraz argumenty przeciw ich trafności.

This article interprets Eckhart’s contradictions by presenting them as a result of an existential search for salvific power. It is shown that power is ambivalent in nature: it is the power of what is and the power of (self)overcoming (of what is). Just because power is in itself ambivalent and the process of searching for it existentialist (so not completely conscious), Eckhart’s mystical texts are full of contradictions and the German mystic is apparently not aware of it. The sample of them is shown in this article with regard to his ideas on God and man. Three other interpretations of Eck­hart’s (“apophatic,” “educational,” “methodological”) are presented and argued against.
