born 1844
Friedrich Nietzsche
1844-1900
- Nihilism
- Critic of Traditional Morality
Existentialism
For Nietzsche, the collapse of inherited meaning is not a tragedy but an opening. With “God dead,” humanity is no longer bound to borrowed values, inherited morals, or cultural scripts. Meaning must now be created—through strength, intellectual honesty, and the difficult work of becoming. Nietzsche’s philosophy is not about despair, but about responsibility: if the old meanings have fallen, then living authentically means daring to create new ones.

Allegorical Interpretation
Translated quote by Philo of Alexandria.
An allegory is a literary technique in which the writing represents deeper meanings than the words might initially imply. Allegorical interpretation is the process of understanding the symbolic meaning behind a text or story. It allows for a deeper understanding embedded in literature, art, and movies.

Was Einstein’s Theory of Relativity ever irrational?
Idea of Ideas
In the Idea of Ideas, all discoveries begin as irrational, not wrong, just untested. Einstein’s general relativity was once an unverified challenge to Newton’s gravity. Only after the 1919 eclipse confirmed its predictions did it become empirical truth. That transition, from irrational to empirical, is how real knowledge grows and finds a place within rational frameworks of the Grand Rational Framework.
