Apr 25, 2020 at 16:07 | comment | added | Hypnosifl | Good answer, but on de Silva's comment that "the overman attains solitary spiritual redemption", there are interpreters of Nietzsche who don't think "Übermensch" referred to some sort of heroic individual but rather to a future type of being evolved beyond present-day humanity (see the discussion starting on p. 153 of Ullrich Haase's Starting With Nietzsche which translates it as 'Overhuman'), noting for ex. Nietzsche's comment "What is the ape to man? A laughingstock or a painful embarrassment. And man shall be just that for the Übermensch: a laughingstock or a painful embarrassment." | |
