Peter Bornedal argues that Nietzsches epistemological thought is an elaboration of this paradigm, proposing anti-metaphysical and anti-theological ideas and promoting new scientific naturalist ideals. He suggests that the rational pursuit of these ideals leads to Nihilism in its most profound epistemological sense. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 340 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 May 2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lexington Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNietzsches Naturalist Deconstruction of Truth: A World Fragmented in Late Nineteenth-Century Epistemology presents a fresh perspective on Nietzsches examinations of truth and knowledge,spanning from his early essay \"On Truth and Lies in an Extra-Moral Sense\" to his later notebooks. By contextualizing these discussions within the influential neo-Kantian,Naturalist,Positivist, and Pragmatic schools of thought prevalent in Nietzsches late nineteenth-century Europe, the book offers a comprehensive interpretation of his ideas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePeter Bornedal advocates for a view of Nietzsches epistemological thought as an extension of this paradigm, proposing ideas that are anti-metaphysical and anti-theological in their polemic orientation while also promoting new scientific naturalist ideals in the discussions of knowledge. Bornedal suggests that the rational pursuit of these ideals leads to Nihilism in its most profound epistemological sense.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt is important to note that Nietzsches \"critique of metaphysics\" emerges from distinct sources and, at times, exhibits opposition to more recent postmodern and deconstructionist critiques. This book provides a valuable context for Nietzsche by placing him in relation to several philosophical peers and juxtaposing him with contemporary thinkers, thereby resolving some of the challenges that have plagued recent Nietzsche scholarship.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 408g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 218 x 156 x 17 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781498579322\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Bornedal","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44102311477498,"sku":"9781498579322","price":38.54,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1653912274323_book.jpg?v=1654013024","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/nietzsches-naturalist-deconstruction-of-truth-a-world-fragmented-in-late-nineteenthcentury-epistemology-9781498579322","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
