I11-R97-article-95872025-12-03T17:52:42Z Nietzsche as the redeemer of chance against the shackles of Christian morality Nietzsche como redentor del azar frente a las cadenas de la moral cristiana Passerini, Ana Inés Nietzsche moral judeocristiana crítica nihilista metamorfosis superhombre Nietzsche Judeo-Christian morality nihilistic critique metamorphosis overman This article explores Friedrich Nietzsche's critique of Judeo-Christian morality, considering the influence of theologian Franz Overbeck on his view of Christianity. The analysis is based on an examination of major works such as The Antichrist, On the Genealogy of Morality, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The Nietzschean perspective unfolds through a tripartite conception of nihilism—passive, active, and future. This is exemplified by the metamorphosis of the spirit announced by Zarathustra, through the three metaphorical figures that progress from the camel to the lion, and from the lion to the child. The journey culminates in the figure of the overman as the synthesis of this metamorphosis: a being who has traversed all stages to become the architect of his own existence, affirming life and creating new values after the "death of God." Thus, Nietzsche presents himself as the "redeemer of chance," but the article questions whether his endeavor can ultimately lead to the redemption of humanity. Este artículo explora la crítica de Friedrich Nietzsche a la moral judeo-cristiana, considerando la influencia del teólogo Franz Overbeck en su visión del cristianismo. El análisis se basa en un examen de obras clave como El Anticristo, Genealogía de la moral y Así habló Zaratustra. La perspectiva nietzscheana se desenvuelve a través de una concepción tripartita del concepto de nihilismo, en tanto pasivo, activo y futuro; y se ejemplifica con la metamorfosis del espíritu anunciada por Zaratustra, a través de las tres figuras metafóricas que van del camello al león y del león al niño. Para finalmente, arribar a la figura del superhombre como síntesis de esta metamorfosis, un ser que ha transitado todas las etapas para convertirse en el artífice de su propia existencia, afirmando la vida y creando nuevos valores tras la “muerte de Dios”. Por ello Nietzsche se presenta como “redentor del azar”, pero su cometido ¿podrá alcanzar finalmente la redención del ser humano?

This article explores Friedrich Nietzsche's critique of Judeo-Christian morality, considering the influence of theologian Franz Overbeck on his view of Christianity. The analysis is based on an examination of major works such as The Antichrist, On the Genealogy of Morality, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra. The Nietzschean perspective unfolds through a tripartite conception of nihilism—passive, active, and future. This is exemplified by the metamorphosis of the spirit announced by Zarathustra, through the three metaphorical figures that progress from the camel to the lion, and from the lion to the child. The journey culminates in the figure of the overman as the synthesis of this metamorphosis: a being who has traversed all stages to become the architect of his own existence, affirming life and creating new values after the "death of God." Thus, Nietzsche presents himself as the "redeemer of chance," but the article questions whether his endeavor can ultimately lead to the redemption of humanity. |
