Summary/Abstract: The study focuses on some parallels between moral and ethics concepts/visions of the playwright Ibsen and the philosopher Nietzsche, both of them denying the “poison” of egalitarianism, the grading lie upon equality among mass and the superior human being. Concerning the concept of moral, a certain special fluidity can be remarked, a mysterious link, crucial for the absolute Self. Then the dominance of fanatic due to ethic nature, associated with a major effort of constructing and deconstructing the norms and moral values is present in the structure of both personalities. This ethic “fanatic” determines unpredictable links between the philosophy of Kant and Ibsen’s dramatic “system”.
