Abstract

Starting from the paradigmatic case of Zarathustra, seeks to show how the typological and hierarchized procedures play a decisive role, but paradoxical, in Nietzsche's thought, especially in the last stage of his philosophical production. If, on the one hand, the typology is a fruitful approach descriptive configurations of human power, hierarchy, by implying an interventionist stance, seems to compromise the reach of mere typological descriptions.

Keywords: life, will to power, type, hierarchy.
