Will to knowledge, will to ignorance and will to power in beyond good and evil

Alexander Nehamas

pp. 90-108

Abstract

we came to a long halt at the question about the cause of this will—until we finally came to a complete stop before a still more basic question. We asked about the value of this will. Suppose we want truth: why not rather untruth? and uncertainty? even ignorance? (5:15, BGE 1)
