Abstract

In this text, Franco Volpi offers in a tight synthesis a characterization of Nietzsche’s specifi c position within the problem of nihilism, as part of what would be his most extensive historical-philosophical research on the main manifestations of this phenomenon throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in his monograph, Il nichilismo (1996), already converted into a classic of the Nietzschean studies.
