520 _aThis book explores the significance of human animality in the philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche and provides the first systematic treatment of the animal theme in NietzscheGs corpus as a whole. Lemm argues that the animal is neither a random theme nor a metaphorical device in NietzscheGs thought. Instead, it stands at the center of his renewal of the practice and meaning of philosophy itself. The question of the animal in NietzscheGs thought as treated by Lemm provides an original contribution to ongoing debates on the essence of humanism and its future. The book will appeal not only to readers interested in Nietzsche but also to anyone interested in the theme of the animal in contemporary philosophy, comparative literature, cultural studies, and the arts, as well as those interested in the relation between biological life and politics.
