• W2285025045 abstract "Although their work is separated by three-quarters of a century, Novalis and Nietzsche both operated within the intellectual context engendered by an Enlightenment-era discussion of the human vocation. Both respond to the need for a new human identity that addresses questions about the ability of the human being to know its nature and the nature of the universe, act freely, know right from wrong, and find meaning and value in existence. At the two ends of the nineteenth century, they present different responses to the problem of alienation within this new context, as Novalis attempts to salvage a broadly Christian framework for the human vocation, while Nietzsche reacts against Christian values and ways of providing meaning, as well as those of its secular successors.Despite this important difference, Novalis and Nietzsche share a goal of providing an affirming model of life that escapes the conventional dichotomy of immanent and transcendent. I compare their models of creative affirmation to highlight their insights and weaknesses and to identify characteristics of their work useful for a new response to alienation. The first and second parts of the thesis examine their respective attempts to enable affirmation, analysing their accounts of death and suffering, community, and myth, and questioning the extent to which these avoid relying on the transcendent. The third part identifies aspects of their work that can contribute to a life-affirming response to alienation. I argue that, while neither provides a fully satisfying response to the modern situation of alienation that motivated them, both have insights that should be used in attempts to cope with the disorientation and isolation associated with the loss of an authoritative statement of the vocation of humankind. Nietzsche's thoroughgoing rejection of the transcendent and highlighting of tensions characterising human life must form part of a response to alienation, while Novalis' models of freedom, communication, and community better promote fulfilling ways of making sense of life in the face of its darker aspects. My concluding chapter outlines a form of immanent affirmation based on these strengths, arguing that this can take place in a dialogical community of creative individuals.%%%%Bien que trois quarts de siecle separent leurs travaux, Novalis et Nietzsche operaient dans le contexte intellectuel favorise par la question de la vocation humaine, comme il a ete discute au cours du siecle des lumieres. Tous deux repondent au besoin d'une nouvelle identite humaine qui s'interroge sur la capacite de l'etre humain de connaitre sa nature et la nature de l'univers, de se comporter librement, de differencier le bien du mal et de trouver un sens et une valeur a l'existence.Les deux ecrivains presentent des reponses differents au probleme de l'alienation de soi dans ce nouveau contexte. Novalis tente de garder un cadre chretien pour la vocation humaine, tandis que Nietzsche s'oppose aux valeurs et references chretiennes. Bien que leur projet, sous cet angle important,…" @default.
