Nietzsche, from the history of moral sentiments to the genealogy of moral

Abstract

This article aims to analyze the articulation between the historical philosophy practiced by Nietzsche from 1876 and the genealogy of morality. For this, it is desired to emphasize how the philosopher passes from the task of analyzing the history of moral feelings, characteristic of Human, all too human, to that which leads to place the value of values (i.e., moral itself) in check, in Genealogy of morality. Finally, this requires analyzing the importance of the relationship between life and work in order to identify its results: a valuation of individual experiences and the affirmation of innocence.
