Date: Thu, 31 Jan 2002 03:54:29 -0800 (PST) From: Juan Ciriza <jciriza-AT-yahoo.com> Subject: Of the Three Metamorphoses Hi everyone: This is my first post to this list and I just wanted to ask something that is probably a very basic question, but anyways, there it goes: In Z's Part One, Z's discourses, the first one is named 'Of the Three Metamorphoses': "I name you three metamorphoses of the spirit: how the spirit shall become a camel, and the camel a lion, and the lion at last a child." The thing is that I find quite clear and elaborated the first and second metamorphoses of the spirit (camel and lion) but rather obscure the last one (child), where I find N didn't elaborate his concept of a child as much as the previous ones. He just names a few 'features' that such a spirit should/would have, such as innocence, forgetfulness, etc. Could anyone point me in the right direction? (either other works of Nietzsche or comments found somewhere else). Thanks a lot in advance. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo!
