Nietzsche's Philosophy: Freedom and the Superman

Classified in Philosophy and ethics

Written at on English with a size of 2.97 KB.

What can be said of Nietzsche's philosophy is that it is based on freedom from the burden of God, to become a Superman who can do what he wants without being accountable to anyone. He considers how weak those who are subject to the laws of God are, which is demonstrated in many ways, as follows:

When in his The Birth of Tragedy he speaks of the Apollonian and the Dionysian, the Apollonian represents something harmonic and orderly, which is not too good for man, and the Dionysian is the essence of life. He also states that morality is anti-life, and that moral life should be condemned. Nietzsche criticized Socrates for having "invented" morality.

Nietzsche's Moral Distinction

Nietzsche makes a distinction between two types of morality:

Written at on English with a size of 2.48 KB.

Liability of Public Officials

1. Prerequisites for the Position

A preventive control mechanism for rotating administration officials and judges was the selection of who should administer justice.

These people were chosen from the noble and rich, with experience in times of war and conquest, of good character, raised in the Calmecac, prudent and wise, and also the servants at the palace.

A good senator is a righteous judge who hears both sides, weighs the cause of each, gives to each what belongs, and does justice always right. They are not swayed by people and do justice without passion. Thus, we can see that codes of ethics were very real.

The Radicalization of Left Parties

This led to the radicalization of the left parties.

The Riots of 1934

In 1934, there was a government reshuffle that gave input to ministers of CEDA. This caused the outbreak of riots throughout Spain. In Catalonia, the situation was quite different because the general government was in the hands of a leftist coalition that did not view the process initiated by the Lerroux government favorably. A first confrontation occurred when the courts in Madrid had to cancel the Contract Law of the crop. The decisive confrontation took place in October 1934 when President Companys led a revolt and proclaimed the Catalan State within the Spanish Republic. In Asturias, the revolt had a more social character.

The Fifteenth Century: A Time of Profound Change

Classified in Geography

Written at on English with a size of 751 bytes.

The fifteenth century is a time of profound change. Europe is divided by the Western Schism that originated in the late war of the XIV century. The marriage between the Catholic Monarchs improves the political situation. The development of trade and the growth of cities provided opportunities for the bourgeoisie, which encouraged the new class appreciation of worldly values. Culture became a sign of distinction between nobles and wealthy bourgeois, and the courts and universities replaced monasteries as the main centers of learning. In this new atmosphere, humanism began to diffuse, and in 1450, Gutenberg invented the printing press.
