Talk:Nietzschean affirmation

message: After the quote by Nietzsche it cites Kaufman's edition of "The Will To Power" as (Nietzsche 532-533). Perhaps it should mention that those are the pages of the book, and not the various sections/aphorisms that make up the book.
A small inconsequential thing, but I was struggling to find the quote. Since the book index uses the numbered sections, not page numbers. So it would help a certain minority out there.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.202.132.152 (talk) 07:38, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  After Nietzsche quote. 

message: Inverted 2 main sections ("contra Shopenhauer" and "Derrida's interpretation") since the latter (which came as 1st section) is in my view anecdotic for the subject of the article and in any case does not help at all in understanding Nietzsche's thought.

message: A definition of Nietschean affirmation would be very helpful. All we have in the lede is a quote that describes it in a roundabout way. Qzekrom (talk) 02:15, 16 December 2015 (UTC)

replies: text: Had a quick look, and if it comes to a RM, I believe it won't end up being supported by the merits. Consider this search  in English books for occurrences of the term Nietzche (including inflected forms like Nietzchean or Nietzche's) that occur in close proximity to the term Bejahung. Note that this is a cherry-picked search, so it is not valid for determining whether Bejahung or Nietzschean affirmation is more common in English books. Rather it answers the question, "When Bejahung *is* used in English books, how is it used?" and thus likely considerably overstates the usage of Bejahung compared to Nietzschean affirmation. This search shows that where the term is used in English books, it is hardly ever used in running English text as a loanword (Jensen (2013) was one such case) but rather almost always uses it in a German quotation, or as a parenthetical or footnoted appositive or expression in Nietzsche's original German by way of explanation of the English word used in the running English text. A typical example from Metzger (2009): "" An unbiased, head-to-head search of the two terms shows around ten to one in favor of affirmation. Mathglot (talk) 19:34, 3 December 2022 (UTC)
