The intellectual world of the 1800s and its influence upon the young Friedrich Nietzsche. A 10-minute clip from the Faulkner-Hogg interview: Nietzsche’s precociousness, the priority of biology or philosophy, evolution, the roots of ethics, cognitive subjectivism, and religion’s precariousness after Hume, Kant, Schopenhauer, and Kierkegaard.
