Nietzsches thought has been of renewed interest to philosophers in both the Anglo- American and the phenomenological and hermeneutic traditions.Nietzsche on Consciousness and the Embodied Mindpresents 16 essays from analytic and continental perspectives. Appealing to both international communities of scholars, the volume seeks to deepen the appreciation of Nietzsches contribution to our understanding of consciousness and the mind.Over the past decades, a variety of disciplines have engaged with Nietzsches thought, including anthropology, biology, history, linguistics, neuroscience, and psychology, to name just a few. His rich and perspicacious treatment of consciousness, mind, and body cannot be reduced to any single discipline, and has the potential to speak to many.And, as several contributors make clear, Nietzsches investigations into consciousness and the embodied mind are integral to his wider ethical concerns.

1 Introduction to Nietzsche on Consciousness and the Embodied Mind

This collection of essays aims to widen our understanding of the possible contributions can make to current debates on consciousness and the mind, both of which he conceived as fundamentally embodied. Nietzsches philosophy has at times been brought into fruitful dialogue with a large number of different disciplines, such as anthropology, history, neuroscience, biology, psychology, and linguistics, to name just a few. His rich and unsystematic treatment of consciousness and the body cannot be reduced to any single discipline and has the potential to speak to all of the above, and more. In the famous note at the end of the first essay of GM, Nietzsche proposes an interdisciplinary research programme for the study of morality, and moral values in particular. His recommendation is to study morality from all possible perspectives, with the wider goal of better understanding human flourishing. His investigations into consciousness and the embodied mind are also not free-standing philosophical analyses but should be seen as part and parcel of what we could call his larger ethical concerns. We learn from Nietzsches sympathetic and yet always critical perspective on the natural and other sciences (I am thinking here, for example, of GM III 23) that he supports specialized scientific enquiries (and presumably this would include research into consciousness and the mind e.g. by contemporary neuroscience) never merely as an end in itself, but rather guided by broadly ethical concerns. This volume offers a treatment of Nietzsches philosophy of mind from a number of different analytic and continental perspectives and aims to show its connection to Nietzsches broader ethical concerns.

It is commonly accepted that regards the body very highly. No passage better captures Nietzsches admiration and shift towards a more correct, adualistic embodied self-conception than the well-known passage from Z :

the knowing one says: body am I through and through, and nothing besides; and soul is just a word for something on the body. The body is a great reason, a multiplicity with one sense, a war and a peace, one herd and one shepherd. Your small reason, what you call mind is also a tool of your body, my brother, a small work- and plaything of your great reason. I you say and are proud of this word. But what is greater is that in which you do not want to believe your body and its great reason. It does not say I, but does I. (Z I Despisers)
