ニーチェにおける<芸術家の誠実さ>について

抄録

This article considers Nietzsche's concept of the artist in terms of Redlichkeit (sincerity; uprightness) in the late Nietzsche. In his discussion regarding art and the artist, he suggests the artist is most great among human beings, and art is contrary to Christian morality. Furthermore, he argues that the artist must be redlich. However, why is Nietzsche affirmative on the Christian virtue of Redlichkeit, but negative on Christian morality? It is through the break of existent moral values that the sincere Self can create value autonomously, i.e. Redlichkeit is not to others but to the Self for Nietzsche. Beyond that, the creating Self even breaks the value created by itself. That is to say, Redlichkeit to the Self is Redlichkeit against the Self also. I consider this Redlichkeit a fundamental requirement for creation, and I explain concretely what Nietzsche meant by the creation of art, when the artist is redlich through reference to Richard Wagner.
