  • Above, and Beyond.

    People talk about philosophy masterclasses, but this series is beyond that. This series isn't just about Nietzsche, it's more about Nietzsche and the history that conditions Nietzsche's emergence as a necessity in the progress of philosophy.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Untimely Reflections #46: Stuart Kendall - On Georges Bataille
Q: What is the role of war in Bataille's thought, especially in relation to On Nietzsche and Guilty?
War is seen as a cosmological principle and a space for meditation that reveals the limits of rationality; it destabilizes grand histories and exposes the oscillation between control and license that characterizes the human condition.
Untimely Reflections #46: Stuart Kendall - On Georges Bataille
Q: How does Bataille reinterpret Nietzsche's will to power in On Nietzsche?
The discussion reframes will to power as a description of energy flowing through life, where the point is not accumulation or domination but the joyous overflow and the capacity to release energy in lively, sometimes transgressive acts.
Untimely Reflections #46: Stuart Kendall - On Georges Bataille
Q: Could you introduce Bataille's notion of expenditure and how it relates to the accursed share?
Kendall explains that expenditure is not mere waste; it is a force that destabilizes regulation and that the accursed share is the surplus energy that societies try to bury or moralize, yet true value emerges when this excess is released in spectacular or risky ways.
Q&A #14
Q: Is the overman central to Nietzsche's project, and how should we understand its role in his philosophy?
The overman functions as a driving, artistic-ethical ideal that helps people reconstruct values after devaluations of traditional morals; it serves as both a motivational target and a way to understand Nietzsche's project of life- affirmation through self-overcoming, rather than a dogmatic system.
Untimely Reflections #38: Jimmy Burke - Will to Joy
Q: How do you intend to accomplish such a task?
I plan to approach the will to power comprehensively by analyzing its different interpretations and how it influences various aspects of life, despite the challenges of exhaustive research needed for clarity.
