Résumé anglais Nietzsche's Anti-revolutionary Stance : Some Remarks on the Book by Domenico Losurdo, Nietzsche, Il Ribelle Aristocratico, biografia intelletuale et bilancio critico, Bollati Boringhieri, Turin, 2002, 1168 p.
Facing the flood of contradictory interpretations of Nietzsche's writings, is it still possible to assert anything positive about the political and intellectual stance of the author of « Zarathoustra » ? In his massive study, Domenico Losurdo, Professor of Philosophy at the university of Urbino, argues that Nietzsche's thoughts, even the most provocative, such as his defence of slavery or eugenics, should not be read as simple metaphors or innocent speculations aiming at the moral improvement of man, but constitute a specific, agressively aristocratic, response to what, according to Nietzsche, is the main threat of his time : the rise of revolutionary ideals, and global democratisation of society.
