Nietzsche and Quine: From the Naturalization of Aesthetics to Naturalized Epistemology

Abstract

Far from intending to exhaust all the possible similarities between Nietzsche and Quine, the following text aims at showing, through paradigmatic comparisons and admissible methodological convergences, how both authors - by making naturalistic assumptions to interpret knowledge and aesthetics respectively - allow us to think of a less confining and more creative naturalism, free from the prejudices of scientism and more compatible with the artistic sensibility in general.
