Diese Studie weist nach, dass Nietzsche ein konsistentes und vollständiges Konzept der Ethik entwickelt hat. Es umfasst eine Handlungstheorie, die Bestimmung eines Begriffs des Guten und die Anwendung auf einzelne Verhaltensweisen im Sinne der Kontextgebundenheit praktischer Philosophie. Bei der Rekonstruktion des Verfassers stehen weniger die einzelnen Werke als ihr systematischer Zusammenhang im Zentrum. Für Nietzsche bleibt Autonomie ohne den Bezug auf ein Handlungsziel im Sinn des Guten unbestimmt. Dass er auf diese Weise eine Position der antiken Ethik aufgreift, zeigt ein Vergleich mit Platon. Gleichzeitig will Nietzsche sich nicht einfach von neuzeitlichen Moralkonzepten abgrenzen. Ihm geht es um eine hermeneutische Reflexion, welchen Sinn moralische Forderungen für das Selbst haben. Im Gegensatz zur aktuellen Debatte um Konzepte ästhetischer Lebenskunst, die sich auf Nietzsche als ihr vermeintliches Vorbild beruft, zeigt die Studie: Nietzsche ist ein genuin ethischer Denker. This study demonstrates that Nietzsche developed a consistent and complete concept of ethics. It comprises a theory of action, a determination of the concept of good and the application to individual behaviours in the sense of the contextuality of ethics. The author’s reconstruction is centred less on individual works than on their systematic interconnection. For Nietzsche, autonomy remains undefined without the reference to an action goal in the sense of the good. The comparison with Plato shows that he takes up a position from the ethics of antiquity. At the same time, Nietzsche is not simply trying to delineate himself from modern concepts of morality. He is concerned with a hermeneutic reflection on the sense that moral demands have for the self. In contrast to the present-day debate on concepts of the aesthetic art of living which cite Nietzsche as their alleged model, Nietzsche is shown in this study to be a genuinely ethical thinker.

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was not only a philosopher who loved and wrote about music; he was also a musician, pianist, and composer. In this ground-breaking volume, philosophers, historians, musicians, and musicologists come together to explore Nietzsche's thought and music in all its complexity. Starting from the role that music played in the formation and articulation of Nietzsche's thought, as well as the influence that contemporary composers had on him, the essays provide an in-depth analysis of the structural and stylistic aspects of his compositions. The volume highlights the significance of music in Nietzsche's life and looks deeply at his musical experiments which led to a new and radically different style of composition in relation with his philosophical thought. It also traces the influence that Nietzsche had on many other musicians and musical genres, from Russian composers to current rock music and heavy metal.
