A corporificação do pensamento em Friedrich Nietzsche

Abstract

This thesis broaches the body issue in Friedrich Nietzsche work. It intends to deeply understand the consistence of Nietzschean concept of body, presented more precisely in Thus Spoke Zarathustra book, starting from a longer and detailed investigation over the theory of a gradual creation process, prior to the mentioned formulation, which freely defines that as embodiment of thought . This process, which would have been developed through Nietzsche philosophy since his early works, would culminate in the radical transformation proposal of Western philosophical thought which has, predominantly, a spiritual character in a bodily thought, essentially. In its totality, this work attempts to follow the peculiarity of Nietzschean thought construction method, understood by a body clear signal, that every moment densifies and assumes itself as able to think, disclosing multiple meanings overall that concerns to the body, prominent or created along Nietzschean critics of Western thought and culture, especially on Modernity. The main focus of this work is on Nietzsche books, written from 1870 to 1885, for considering the fact of they are situated on this period, the most important moments of critical apperception from the philosopher related to the traditional idea of body; furthermore the basis development for the purposed construction of new concept and operation method for the thought itself and the philosophy in general.
