[QUOTE="Jefferson, post: 13259, member: 14733"] [b]RE: German 19th century philosopher A. Schopenhauer "On Women"[/b] That's not the full story flux. Yes, Nietzsche did inject a biological element into his Uebermensch, which is very poorly translated as Superman btw, it really represents an 'Ideal man', the old Overman is better, however, Nietzsche also had an intellectual element in mind. He described Lord Byron as an Uebermensch for example. And his whole point was that it was not the wellbeing of the whole species that mattered but those very few appearances of the Byron like characters. So he was aware of this. It was not a purely biological interpretation. One can also interpret the Uebermensch as a product of what you as the individual can achieve if you overcome yourself. Much like game would do, some may argue. [/QUOTE]
