This book espouses the positive reading of Nietzsche on the tragic nature of human existence. For Nietzsche, the task of individual fashioning must be conceived, examined and undertaken within the tragic nature of existence. On Nietzsche’s account, existence properly conceived as tragic ipso facto demands a qualitative individual response. The task for every individual is to cultivate the singular individuality. Singular individuality is Nietzsche’s way of affirming (organizing) tragic/chaotic life, i.e., mustering life and outsmarting it at its own game.
The process of fashioning the singular individuality is referenced as: Individual Autopoiesis. Nietzsche’s best type which assures optimum conditions for singular individuality is Uebermensch. The type Uebermensch espouses life as will to power and posits it from extra-moral aspect as Eternal Recurrence. On the contrary, Ethno-philosophical conditions of the Philosophy of sociality seem inadequate in the understanding of life as tragic. Given its apparent insistence on the communal over the individual, ethno-philosophy glosses over the tragic nature of existence. Nevertheless, world-making, Cosmopoiesis, presupposes Autopoiesis.
