GATTO, Alfredo. Friedrich Nietzsche e the criticism of Cartesian subjectivity. Educação e Filosofia [online]. 2020, vol.34, n.72, pp.1105-1122.  Epub 03-Feb-2022. ISSN 1982-596X.  https://doi.org/10.14393/revedfil.v34n72a2020-59279.

Descartes’ name appears several times in Nietzsche’s published works and in his posthumous fragments. The considerations of the German philosopher are almost always critical and resume, although with a different value of judgement, the interpretation of Cartesian thought provided by Idealistic tradition. In this perspective, Descartes is considered as the father of Western Rationalism, namely, the author that would place the cogito at the center of representation. In this regard, to critically analyzing Nietzschean approach toward Descartes it does not only imply to questioning the validity of his interpretation, but also to questioning the very same canons of philosophical modernity.

Palabras clave : Nietzsche; Descartes; Cogito; Modernity.
