Nietzsche: De la genealogía a la muerte de Dios

This paper consists in a systematic analysis of the consequences of the Nietzschean concept of Genealogy. Starting from the notions of Critical Philology and Tipology, I try to show the difference between the Nietzschean way of interrogation and the Metaphysico-traditional way of interrogation. This opposition takes us toward an analysis of the concept of Will to Power, and its critical consequences in relation to Kant’s moral Philosophy. The difference between Will to Power and Will to Nothingness will be the base for an explanation of Nihilism in its three different moments: Active nihilism, Reactive nihilism and Passive nihilism. These three moments of Nihilism keep an essential relationship with the notion of the Death of God. In this context, it is demonstrated that the notion of the Death of God was already present in Nietzsche’s notion of Genealogy.
