Is Friedrich Nietzsche a philosopher of culture(s)? This book deals with Nietzsches examination of the concept and concrete instances of culture as well as with his plans to create a culture affirmed by life. The author explores how far Nietzsches attempt to judge his own culture from the perspective of other cultures already provides a new path for intercultural reflection. Finally, the book treats the reception of Nietzsches cultural-philosophical views in the 20th century and questions how far Nietzsches cultural thought is relevant for contemporary cultural philosophy and the cultural turn in the humanities.
