Abstract

Dr. Th. Katrios’ speech moved me a lot when I first listened to him live and now by watchingit again on video. Dr. Katrios, in simple words and employing a poetic tone, introduced me to the poetry of Nietzsche’s thoughtas he was presenting some concepts of this great thinker’s work and connecting them with psychoanalysis and its own great thinkers...Next, E. Xanthopoulou’s text, more complex and dense, a “difficult” text, in an attempt to connect Nietzsche’s withBateson’s concepts, proposes an association with Systemics. It presented me with new wondrous questions about Nietzsche’s theoretical contributions...Both, Katrios‘speechand Xanthopoulou’s text gotme all excited and curious to search and to know more about Nietzsche himself, his life, his thought.
