Abstract

Starting from the comparison between the philosophies of Nietzsche and Schopenhauer,this paper aims to expound the so called «artist’s metaphysics» in Nietzsche´s early works. For this purpose, we will analyze the concept of Will, meeting-point of the differences and similarities of both thinkers. In the end, Nietzsche’s creative appropriation of Schopenhauer leads to a crucial difference:according to Nietzsche, the Will is Artist because it accommodates in it an unconscious finality: geniusand tragic appearance (tragische Daseinsform).
