As we study Nietzsche?s writings, we will assess how Martin Heidegger and Gilles Deleuze have shaped our reception and understanding of Nietzsche. We also will consider how Nietzsche anticipates and sometimes surpasses important contemporary intellectual trends including new materialisms, theories of emergent causality and complexity, and the relationship between human consciousness and biological life.
