Try To Discuss Nietzsche's Nihilism And It's Influence On Luxun

Nihilism becomes a kind of disease penetrated into the whole 19th century, which has a multi-aspect and profound expression. But in essence, it is characterized by belief crisis and "Decadence" of Modern civilization borne from it .Nihilism, which means losing the supreme value or we may say "God has passed away", is the starting point of Nietzsche philosophy ,Here the supreme valve and God refer to a kind of object endowed existence with ultimate basis ,purpose and meaning produced by metaphysics ,And while its value is nothing ,all the valuable things adhered to it become nothing too; so existence also loses its basis ,purpose and meaning . Since nihilism is a historical process of losing supreme value, it is also a historical process of metaphysics. From metaphysics firstly created by Medieval Christian mythology and Enlightenment movement to Nietzsche Age, rational metaphysics was completely denied, while moral metaphysics still exists energetically. In order to fulfill his nihilism, develop it to the ultimate and advocate an absolute, active one. Nietzsche ruined the foundation of old metaphysics from bottom and build up his own metaphysics of the will to power. Nietzsche attributed metaphysics to existence, estimate to Value, and rule of value existence to the will to power .The will to power is the beings' whole basic characteristics, a kind of pure creativity, and the best state of life itself .He negated metaphysical moral system with the will to power, and recover its original meaning of life So he thought nihilism did not only expatiate on nothing, but also mainly depend on overcoming and turning against nothingness.Lu xun was deeply affected by. Nietzsche's unique point view on nihilism and his conquering over it .In the first intercourse with Nietzsche is philosophy, lu xun appreciated its sad and desperate thought existed in it, which reflects his despair on the people of that Age so as to hammer it with the will to power .So based on Nietzsche's criticizing spirit, lu xun profoundly savored that "limitless darkness" in old China .and decided to make a "resistance against despair". He obtained two thought factors from Nietzsche: Nihilism and surmounting and objection to Nihilism. Darkness and Nothingness in which lu xun said is a kind ofrealistic experience which derives from four aspects: Firstly, Chinese traditional culture has become an obstacle to historical development. Secondly, the self realizes Sin under the affection of traditional culture. Thirdly, doubt on life evolution caused by the desperation on the youth and the failure of revolution. Fourthly, negative attitude on the capitalist democratic politics accompanied by the decay under the capitalist system. He thought that it is necessary to execute the reformation on national personality in order to dispel "darkness" and nihility which is to pursue the Emancipation of Individuality, which is the Emancipation of thought or spirit, and break-through of Liberal will over darkness control. This is Lu xun's objection to Desperation or resistance against despair and Nietzsche's will to power and superman thought recreated by lu xan.Nietzsche's philosophy pervades not only some active factors, but some passive ones. E ? g his superman hypothesis isn't only felt too uncertain, but smelled an ill kind of exciting flavors. As one of the most anxious soul in 20th century he fell back on the social realistic conditions in old china and absorbed and digested the thought of Nietzsche acted as a great critic and reformist by neglecting its contradictory and passive aspects and making use of its active ones to develop his own characteristics So, we must notice the affection on lu xun, and at the same time tell the distinction between them. That is value of world and methodology of dialogical materialism.
