The nineteenth-century German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche is notorious as a misogynist. Likewise, Nietzsche's axiological stance, commonly called perspectivism, is notorious as relativism.

Produktbeschreibung
The nineteenth-century German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche is notorious as a misogynist. Likewise, Nietzsche's axiological stance, commonly called perspectivism, is notorious as relativism. However, I would like to propose a counter-reading of both Nietzsche's comments regarding women and his comments regarding perspective which interprets Nietzsche as neither misogynistic nor relativistic. In order to do so, I will adopt a stance which is nonapologist in that I will not merely wash my hands of Nietzsche's apparently sexist remarks about women as Walter Kaufmann does, for example, but rather I will attempt to demonstrate that Nietzsche is performing a polemical attack on a particular kind of naïve feminism which only seeks certain privileges for women in principle without determining whether those privileges are valuable for the empowerment of any actual women. In my dissertation, I will argue that Nietzsche's remarks about women and perspective are explicitly and inextricably intertwined, and thus any reading of Nietzsche's remarks about women must be tied to a reading of Nietzsche's remarks about truth and other axiological judgments made from necessarily human perspectives.
