The case of Nietzsche: madness or simulation?

Keywords: simulation; madness; mask; Nietzsche; Deleuze.
Summary/Abstract: This article explores the different interpretations given to Nietzsche’s madness. Certain critics consider it as a sign of defeat : the proof of Nietzsche’s inability to realise the model of the superman, and complete his project of entirely re-evaluating the value-system ; others see in it the supreme and ironic victory of a Nietzsche choosing the strangest and most impenetrable of masks at the instant he abandons philosophy.
