Nietzsche’s Double Concept of Truth : For an Ambiguous Concept of Truth in Nietzsche’s Philosophy (English)
Abstract [en]

This thesis aims to investigate what Nietzsche says about the concept of truth in several of his works. The works of Nietzsche that will be object to this investigation are On Truth and Lies in a extramoral sense, The Gay Science as well as Beyond Good and Evil. In this thesis I argue, with support from Maudemarie Clark’s book Nietzsche on Truth and Philosophy, that Nietzsches idea of truth best coincides with the correspondence theory of truth. The thesis comes to the conclusion that Nietzsche’s use of the concept of truth varies between truth as illusion, and truth as something like “the object in itself”. The purpose of the thesis is not only to investigate Nietzsches conception of truth, but to formulate an understanding of Nietzsches concept of truth as something with double meaning. On the one hand truth in universality, as it exists as conceptuality. On the other, truth in particularity, as it exists independent of mankind. Finally, I will investigate if it is possible for the individual to fully reach, or atleast come close to, this second meaning of truth.
