Wrg an amb bgraphy that emphasiz Nietzsche’s sexualy, Köhler tends to show that Nietzsche was gay, and that this sight leads to a reterpretatn of his work. Yet curly, he do not addrs Nietzsche’s exclamatn, Ecce Homo, that his wrgs are one thg, and he himself is another (sectn 1 of Why I Wre Such Good Books).

So was Nietzsche gay? Köhler shows that the hypothis that Nietzsche was gay illumat many episos his life, and that some ntemporari thought that he was gay.

THE GAY SCIENCE

Cambridge Core - European Lerature - Nietzsche's The Gay Science * nietzsche gay *

While is prumably not te of the European 19th century what Peter Brown says ( his The Body and Society) of late antiquy, namely, that is a world irretrievably closed to , we mt keep md that some regards Nietzsche’s was a different world ed: the experience of diversy was limed; sexualy was not openly discsed, while homosexualy was often punishable by rceratn. So should be unsurprisg that no direct evince of Nietzsche’s homosexualy emerg.

Still, some skepticism remas: there is no specific person wh whom Köhler claims unambiguoly that Nietzsche had a homosexual relatnship, or wh whom he longed to have one.

IS THERE A GAY BASIS TO NIETZSCHE'S IAS?

Other articl where The Gay Science is discsed: ntental philosophy: Nietzsche: In The Gay Science, Nietzsche proclaims that * nietzsche gay *

No reference to a gay lover appears Nietzsche’s wrgs, not even a note book, although Nietzsche, for most of his sane life, had ltle reason to spect that, one day, scholars would eagerly publish even material he had disrd. Inappropriate as this prumably was, is no ditn of homosexualy, given that the petg hypothis is that Nietzsche was a sensive if perhaps socially somewhat maladjted (but at any rate straight) man tryg to nnect to like-md souls wherever he uld reach them, and was often rebed that procs. Do Köhler mean to suggt that Rée and Nietzsche were gay lovers, at least briefly?

This is as close as Köhler to actually nnectg Nietzsche’s alleged homosexualy to a particular person. Very illumatg is Köhler’s suggtn that Nietzsche went to Italy bee offered refuge to German homosexuals exiled om their own untry.

Long before Thomas Mann’s Aschenbach enuntered the boy Tadz, German homosexuals ventured south to fd their own Tadzs.

Still, while there are lgerg qutns and no nclive evince, Köhler’s se is strong: he mak a very real possibily that Nietzsche was gay.

Yet grantg that much, or more, for the sake of the argument, why should we re whether Nietzsche was gay if we are terted his philosophy? This, then, is Zarathtra’s secret: Zarathtra, Nietzsche’s “son, ” talks cryptic terms about Nietzsche’s life self, his experienc as a fatherls son, and his subsequent experienc as a homosexual nmned to hidg his clatns. Yet addn to the ncern articulated the last paragraph, we are now also wonrg what the nnectn is between Nietzsche’s alleged homosexualy, which seems to be part of what Zarathtra reveals, properly unrstood, and the eternal recurrence, or the superman (whom Köhler brgs a b too much nnectn wh Nietzsche’s Sicilian enunters, sayg that Nietzsche “saw” the superman Sicily (p 255)).

Jt how do philosophers have to modify their thkg about eternal recurrence if that ia is proposed by a gay man wh nightmar and fantasi, rather than a “sexls tellectual wh a wals motache?
