Nietzsche’s metaphor of the spider that spins its cobweb expresses his critique of the metaphysical use of language - but it also suggests that “we, spiders”, are able to spin different, life-affirming, non-metaphysical cobwebs. This book focuses not only on Nietzsche’s critique of the metaphysical assumptions of language, but also on his effort to use language in a different way, i.e., to create a “new language.” It is from this viewpoint that the book considers such themes as consciousness, the self, metaphor, instinct, affectivity, style, morality, truth, and knowledge.
João Constâncio and Maria João Mayer Branco, New University of Lisbon, Portugal.
