Educação, experiência e saber a partir do Nietzsche educador

Abstract

The present essay aims to defend the existence of an intrinsic relationship among education, experience and knowledge in the principles of Friedrich Nietzsche from the influence exerted by the reading of The world as will and representations by Arthur Schopenhauer in the works of his youth. For Schopenhauer, the assignment of a true philosopher is to search for an answer to our enigmatic existence, and both him in On philosophy at the universities, and Nietzsche in Schopenhauer as Educator conceive criticism about the german educational institutions in favor of this more widespread philosophical assignment. Therefore, what's at stake when we think philosophically about education, is the terrible and great problem of the meaning of existence. Thus, the concept of untimeliness appears as a singular way to philosophize before the consequences of nihilism on education. Lastly, we seek to explore in a dialogue between Nietzsche and Jorge Larrosa some contributions of Nietzsche's reflections for education as a field of knowledge.
