Abstract
Higher Men are insufficient because they do not realize the nature of affirmation― for true affirmation is inseparable from that negation which negates those negative values which are created by the “will to nothing”. Therefore the affirmation conceived by them is merely an abstract image of true affirmation.
True affirmation finds its power in the affirmability of life itself revealed in the experience lived of the “eternal return”. This affirmability of life itself is called Dionysos, and the affirmation that affirms Dionysos finds its principle in Ariadne, while the “eternal return” signifies the wedding ring between these divinities.
