Mądry od początku: w stronę autobiografii Nietzschego
Wise from the beginning: towards Nietzsche's autobiography

Summary/Abstract: In my article I try to reconstruct what one could call "Nietzsche’s epistemology". I try to show its mythological and metaphorical aspects in affiliation with an autobiographical modus of thinking by which I understand such a way of reflection that places itself in an area of individuality (contrary to generality of a concept). So, on the basis of "Ecce homo" I try to understand Nietzsche's understanding of the phenomenon of being a reader, of beginning, of wisdom. I try to investigate the role of the category of "race" in Nietzsche's thought. How does it affiliate with a conception of the differance? What are its connections with the category of language and (if so) with the writing, too? The conclusion of my article – if there is any – shows a kind of necessity and – at the same time – impossibility of being a reader of Nietzsche's writings which means: being Nietzsche's own autobiographer.
