While there has been no lack of ?psychological? studies that have sought to illuminate Nietzsche's philosophy of religion by interpreting his biography, this monograph is the first comprehensive study to approach the topic through the philosopher's own psychological thinking. The author shows how Nietzsche's critical writings on religion, and especially on religious decline and future possibilities, are informed by his psychological thinking about moods. The author furthermore argues that the clarification of this aspect of the philosopher?s work is essential to interpreting some of the most ambiguous words found in his writings; the words that God is dead. Instead of merely denying the existence of God in a way that leaves a melancholic need for religion or a futile search for replacements intact, Nietzsche arguably envisions the possibility of a radical atheism, which is characterized by a mood of joyful doubt. The examination of this vision should be of great interest to scholars of Nietzsche and of the history of philosophy, but also of relevance to all those who take an interest in the interdisciplinary discourse on secularization. 410 0$aMonographien und Texte zur Nietzsche-Forschung ;$v71. 606 $aFriedrich Nietzsche 606 $aNietzsche, Friedrich 606 $aRadikaler Atheismus 606 $aStimmung 606 $aSäkularisierung 606 $amood 606 $aradical atheism 606 $asecularization 606 $aPHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / Modern$2bisacsh 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aNietzsche, Friedrich. 610 $amood. 610 $aradical atheism. 610 $asecularization. 615 4$aFriedrich Nietzsche. 615 4$aNietzsche, Friedrich. 615 4$aRadikaler Atheismus. 615 4$aStimmung. 615 4$aSäkularisierung. 615 4$amood. 615 4$aradical atheism. 615 4$asecularization. 615 7$aPHILOSOPHY / History & Surveys / Modern. 676 $a193 700 $aSaarinen$b Sampsa Andrei, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0995540 712 02$aUniversity of Helsinki$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910404124403321 996 $aNietzsche, Religion, and Mood$92281067 997 $aUNINA
