Da guerra de morte contra o cristianismo em Nietzsche à filosofia da profanação em Agamben: contatos, afastamentos e intertextualidades.

Abstract

This study aims to list Nietzsche's critique of Christianity and the fundamentals of Agamben's work in his proposal of profanation. Both in Nietzsche and in Agamben, the Western civilization is heiress of a empty of meaning that promotes the massification of man in order to lead him as an unconscious motor of power, this power is general in played by a figure of the priestly type. This present study proposes that part of Agamben’s investigations are heirs of problematics, not always of solutions, pointed by Nietzsche as his criticism of Western Christian society, the prisestly figure, the Kantian ethic and the ascetic ideals. This correlation is linked through the exploration of gaps left by Nietzsche, in the sense that the Italian philosopher follows up on themes that his predecessor cannot conclude and in the diagnosis of a series of contacts, distances and intertextualities between some Nietzschean critiques and aspects central to Agamben's philosophy. Therefore, this study will work in a privileged way with the On the Genealogy of Morality and The Antichrist, of Nietzsche, while we will give a view to some works of Homo sacer de Agamben in a more systematic way, being them: The Kingdom and The Glory, Opus Dei and The Highest Poverty. Obviously, this research does not exhausted itself in these titles and, whenever necessary, other works will be recruited to support our investigations.
