Nietzsche’s Übermensch (Overman) is among the most important of his teachings. The appearance of the overman most famously occurs in Thus Spoke Zarathustra. He is declared as “the meaning of the earth”. The overman is the ultimate form of man, he is one who overcomes nihilism by creating his own values and focusing on this life, not the afterlife.
He puts all his faith in himself as an autonomous creator and relies on nothing else. He is the pinnacle of self-overcoming, to rise above the human norm and above all difficulties, embracing whatever life throws at you. He is one who overcomes mediocrity and is not afraid to live dangerously.
We’ll be exploring the translation and origins of the Übermensch, its connection with Nietzsche’s early conception of the “free spirit”, the relation between the three metamorphoses, the tightrope walker, the last man, the higher man, the death of god and we'll finish by comparing it with the eternal recurrence and the will to power, where self-overcoming is what unites everything together.

@ryokan9120 2 года назад

@@Eternalised I've compared various translations as regrettably, I don't understand German. In the end, I settled for the translation of Professor Graham Parkes based on a published academic paper by Professor Greg Whitlock. He offered examples where Parkes actually corrected some errors made by Kaufmann. As a rule of thumb, when I read any translation I always read a minimum of 2 different translations. When I read Zarathustra today, I always read Parkes alongside Hollingdale. (I definitely prefer Hollingdale over Kaufmann) PS, keep up the good work.

The goal of becoming the Ubermensch is to go beyond being a mere product of our circumstances. In a world where most people are a result of where and when they were born and what happened to them, the Ubermensch moves past that. This is especially important in a world where God has "died," because it's up to us to figure out what to do with life.

The problem with the overman is that his greatness will not seem great even to those on the path to the overman status because his values and goals will be personal because he is himself and no one else is. While the overman will view mankind as an embarrassment he will also be mocked by mankind for his non conformity.

Ubermensch is not an individual, stip saying that. Nietzsche never thought of sigma males or something remotely like that. He, like other philosophers of his time talked about dying corpse of religion and it's morality, in which humanity always was obedient to somewhat superior being. Ubermensch is idea of mankind, which created it's own morality out of idea of their independence, not obedience to higher being.

@Ti5GR 2 года назад

For years I heard people quote from N that God is dead. I've hardly read his books but this video has clarified his underlying thoughts. Indeed N is a sage and a hermit who dedicated his life in delving into the finest aspect of life that human consciousness is able to achieve. Emerson mentioned 'oversoul' - N takes this as his own as 'overman', presumably meaning an accomplished man on his journey of life. The theology of eminence, presence and personality of God all but dead to N when it seems all but separate from the matters regarding his destiny and becoming. One issue with this is that the not yet mature consciousness would find it impossible to reconcile with ways that are beyond his understanding and to overcome the fear and guilt hidden within himself. All but facets of the disintegrated psyche awaiting to be reconciled after the process of 'camel, lion & the child'; time will heal all.

Nietzsche was not an atheist. He called himself an "Honest Pagan". Nietzsche inverted all concepts, philosophies, and religious concepts to hold up the other end of the Rorschach test. Anyone quoting Nietzsche does not seem to understand that the quote says more about themselves than it says about Nietzsche.

@jeffdaniels3737 2 года назад

Of course you can discount this comment, but your video highlights a deep interest in Nietzsche so I thought I would respond as I am currently writing my thesis with a large focus on the übermensch. There are issues with reading the übermensch in the way presented. The first part of Goldberg's (1987) Nietzsche's Übermensch: A Dionysian Telos is extremely useful and I would recommend reading that instead of incoming my ramblings. To summarise, the übermensch should be read as designating that which is beyond mankind itself, not a superior version of man. The overcoming that you appropriately highlight is central to the übermensch is not an overcoming of a particular type of man but mankind itself. To conceptualise the übermensch as an ideal type of man or as being represented by an attitude transition that living humans can make is a mistake. Evidence for this view is there from the introduction of the übermensch in Zara: 'I teach you the übermensch. Man is something that should be overcome. What have you done to overcome him? All creatures hitherto have created something beyond themselves: and do you want to be the ebb of this great tide, and return to the animals rather than overcome man?... You have made your way from worm to man, and much of you is still a worm. Once you were apes, and even now man is more of an ape than any ape.' I think this passage argues that the creation of the übermensch through the overcoming of man is not grounded by human agency. Nietzsche is not saying that the worm and the ape chose to become human, in the way that an individual can choose, with considerable difficulty, to act in accordance with the figure of the child. Rather, Nietzsche’s argument is that all creatures are essentially creative or productive, grounded in the assertion that the universe is productive in ways that aren’t determined by human consciousness (will to power). In saying ‘much of you is still a worm’ and ‘even now man is more of an ape than any ape’, Nietzsche is asserting that the essential, unconscious creativity or productivity of the worm and the ape is modified, and complicated, but still retained in the human. The notion that the übermensch, therefore, is something that humans can choose to become is mistaken. It is rather meant to designate a superior future species or type of productive entity that human production can help to create, but that human beings can not become.

@Eternalised 2 года назад

Thanks for the reference! I agree that man himself cannot become overman but can strive towards it as an ideal, it is in line with Nietzsche's notion of eternal becoming. A lifelong process of self-overcoming through the will to power. Only one who has embraced this can accept the doctrine of the eternal recurrence, as it is the most terrifying thought but also the "heaviest weight" one can bear to close the gap of nihilism. Nietzsche himself finds it difficult at times: “I do not want life again. How did I endure it? Creating. What makes me stand the sight of it? The vision of the overman who affirms life. I have tried to affirm it myself - alas!” - Nietzsche, Musarion ed., vol. XIV, p. 121. The overman seems to me to be Nietzsche's way of expressing the impossible task of reaching the stars, in order to aspire to the highest possible goal. If one became an overman it would contradict his notion of eternal becoming. As you mention, we all have the "human, all-too-human" part inside of us: “Never yet has there been an overman. Naked saw I both the greatest and the smallest man. They are still all-too-similar to each other. Verily even the greatest I found all-too-human.” Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Part II “Of The Priests”. As one is in eternal becoming, one can never reach "perfection". However, this doesn't affect that the overman is one who has to overcome himself. So, it is a guiding light to life. Nietzsche gives some examples of people he'd consider as closer to the overman, such as Goethe. One who contains more of the "human, superhuman".

An overman is someone who can take the huge risks in every area unafraid and not be bothered by the bad outcomes. Love and grief is an effect that goes the same length both ways. The ammount of love given equals the damage taken if lost. This is common by normal people, the more u love a thing -meaning-the exact ammount of love given is the exact ammount of damage taken when lost/failed. Ubermensch can give 100% of love and dedication to something and yet not grief or get hurt. We can go 100% love/dedication and 0% damage. Normal people go 100% love/dedication and 100% hurt. We create our own values. We decide what hurts us, not what society taught us. We can chose to never get hurt but we sometimes on purpose want to get hurt. There is something positive and negative in everthing yet its easy for us, like choosing between a green and a red Apple. We take the one that taste the best, not the biggest one. Yet we know that contrasts are needed for happiness thats why we arent afraid of pain. We even force it upon ourselves knowing it will give some kind of gratification. We can put ourselves in harsh circumstances just to force a change of value. Cause we know if your in a desert without water, a simple thing as Water becomes your number one value. A circmunstance just forced ur values to shuffle. We know this mental-mechanic well and use pain to re-calibrate or perhaps even force manipulate values to our own favour. People who can not create their own values or feelings are the "robots" or "npcs" to us, cause they are influenced by external factors meaning:0 own choices, cant decide what they feel or how they react. Yet they think we are the npcs, only if they knew:)! For us its vice versa, we chose without any external influence, which is being authentic to oneself, opposite of npc:)

It’s a great idea but it’s dangerous as fuck. Nietzsche wrote some amazing stuff but keep in mind the time period he wrote that stuff in AND his own personal situations. Sounded good in 1883, I’m sure. But we’re in 2023. Could a Nietzsche even get his voice out today?

I am reminded of an individual that lived dangerously, created his own values, rejected the herd, expressed his will to power, said yes to his life, and when asked what he be doing if he wasn't caught Jeffrey Dahmer told his fellow prisoners that he'd still be doing what he was doing thus affirming the eternal return.

@ashwhiteforest9078 Год назад

Failure. His desperation to consume and control another man marked the fatal weakness in him. He was petulant and spiteful of anyone who exhibited strength or qualities he himself could not equal or indeed outright supercede. He was alone in himself, and that desperation shows in his urge to keep and contain a human slave to validate his own meager existence. He could not validate his own. So many people squirm in agony because they don't have a warm body on the couch beside them. A body to say, yes! A word they could tell themselves so easily. The crowd called out to be the last man; what had they continued such a life? Is their surrender to that, the superman? I think they live dangerously in pursuit of the last man. But it's not their desire or even the goal that removes them from the path of the superman, but in their feeble means of walking that road. To merely seek a desired goal, no matter how shamelessly, is not the superman. Man stretches from animal to superman, after all. But if one accepted their doomed path with full understanding of why they seek, even the weakness of spirit that drives them, their fear and insecurity, then they walk the path of the superman. True to themselves, in all things that are great, and base, in himself. That is the essence of a god.

@phasespace4700 Год назад

I suspect Nietzsche would disagree with this assessment and instead categorize Dahmer as a more extreme example of the herd mentality in terms of being a ravenous _consumer_ (literally and figuratively), concerned only with the gratification of hedonistic physical impulses, unable to create anything beyond himself and unwilling to sacrifice and suffer to reach his personal ideal, be that noble or ignoble.

@dwandersgaming Год назад

@@phasespace4700 Ravenous consumers helped created a vibrant economy which allowed me to purchase the collected works of Nietzsche. Lol! We are all herd anyway. Get out of that habit of disparaging people for being "herd" or part of the masses. There's nothing wrong with that. We are products of the society we grew up in. Our emotions were educated by it. Our very dna has evolved through ancestors who were "herd". The language we use is "herd". As N himself said it communicates that which is general/average and fails to express the unique. I embrace those around me for being who they are. That is my "amor fati". I harbor no illusions on what I am. And that is just one of the very many. There are good insights in N's works but there's also the bad. I am not an extreme anti Christian. Even though I am not a believer I do not encourage anyone towards atheism. It's too cold for emotional beings that we are. Nihilism, The Overman, Transvaluation of values, the Geneology of morals, Zarathustra....those are not for me. Nihilism for me means that I am free to make my own way and not be a subject of a Napoleanic Ubermensch sending me off to war. Napolean's bloodbaths were much grander than Dahmer's. Keep Nietzsche at arm's length. That he is rather vague adds danger to his admiration of war like natures as demonstrated by Hitler and his supposed influence by Nietzsche. Perhaps that is the reason why very few politicians embrace Nietzsche. If his philosophy had a future politicians would have to carry water for Nietzsche.

@dwandersgaming Год назад

Failure? There is no failure. You have Nietzsche's writings which are vague. So whatever springs forth as a result remember that Nietzsche isn't around to set them straight. One of his proteges, Adolph Hitler went further than anyone in coming close to the heights of Ubermenschosity. He was in a position to form society and create values as no one else. He embraced that war like Nietzschean spirit and sent many to their deaths. As did Napolean. The ubermensch is not some little nobody living amongst the herd. N's philosophy is about the grand organization of society! The ubermensch needs social backing otherwise if one embraces values too far from the herd one will acquire a subterrean hue to one's existence. The bad conscience of being too different . Raskolnikov of Crime and Punishment exhibits this nicely. Even though he admires higher types/Napolean. He is not up to his deeds. He is unable to take even take one life and live with his deed even though Napolean took many.

Fortunately not everyone individuates into a cannibal. Psychopathy diametrically opposes any authentic search for self and represents a devolution that succumbs to compulsion as opposed to self-mastery. Wondering about you, sir.

@angelus_solus 2 года назад

It's sad that Nietzsche, a man who was not religious, knew the truth about the condition of the dead more than those who supposedly teach it. There is no immortal soul that survives the body upon death, and there is no afterlife that said immortal soul supposedly flies off to. Death is sleep and that's all there is to it. After all, the word cemetery itself comes from a Greek word that literally means "sleeping place".

@madtheghost337 2 года назад

Nietzsche's personal vendetta against God & Jesus Christ, is evidence of his ego against any standard but his own. It is fine & well to rise above societal standards that are ignorant, useless, or otherwise just plain devices of tyranny; I have found, however, that the closer I align myself with the teachings of Christ, the clearer and more enlightened I've felt; the clearer the societal standards aforementioned have been made known; the better of a man I've become- and the more "myself" I have felt. My lifestyle is not very conformist at all. In fact, much of what Nietzsche says about exploring far beyond our social comfort zone despite ridicule, resisting/confrontation, and allowing wonder to expand our creative mind ring very true to me. I consider myself to be quite free spirited. But I attribute most of that to having a standard- a ruler, a God, and a Word to measure my life against... a Truth. When I was young (as in late teens, early 20's) and simply let my own nature & ego to determine morality and ethic myself, I made the worst choices, and suffered the most- if only much, much later. To be your own "god", is the absolute premise to satanism, it is the basis of what lucifer taught, and it tends to lead to self-destruction because our human instinct (especially the most often overlooked sin of vanity/ego) is far too powerful to overcome without an objective stance to anchor us in morality. And- not that mass numbers mean certainty, of course- but it also kinnnda helps that 2.3 billion other people on earth agree (with only the slightest of differences on trivial semantics) that the life of Christ is a great role model to measure our own lives with. I'd say that kinda fortifies the objectivity. What Nietzsche fails to realize- and probably why we have yet to see a true manifestation of the "ubermensch", is ironically the very same thing he fails to see in himself to rise beyond... his vanity and certainty of himself... just like ol' luci.

While his thought process and expression is uniquely genuine his concepts aren't. Will to power, hence, Master/ Slave morality (genealogy of morals). Oversoul, Overman,God is Dead,Thus spoke Zarathustra are modeled after his predecessors and contemporaries. Regardless of the original source his writings are genuis. The metamorphosis of the Overman.
