Who is the ideal man according to Friedrich Nietzsche?
Question asked by: knowitall
The ideal man was called the 'Ubermensch' my Nietzsche. Literally this means over man, or even 'superman'.
For Nietzsche, this hypothetical being displays this transition through having will to power both creatively to overcome nihilism and destructively in rebelling against morality and moral codes, and also what he called self-overcoming.
It is a fairly incoherent rambling of a philosophy but for some reason quite a few people have studied it which has helped to perpetuate and raise awareness of a fairly uninteresting view.
