FREY, Herbert. What God has Died? Nietzsche, the Antinihilist Nihilist. Rev. Mex. Sociol [online]. 2009, vol.71, n.4, pp.715-736. ISSN 2594-0651.

In European thinking, the concept of nihilism was regarded as equivalent to the destruction of traditional values. Although Nietzschean Nihilism appears to point towards the traditional interpretation, Nietzsche regarded nihilism as a consequence of the Western tradition: Christianity completed the separation between God and the world, devalued man's natural drives and placed the here and now in the hands of nothing. The Nietzschean destruction of Christian values is also the destruction of a religion that had destroyed the values of Antiquity. Nietzsche proposed a return to Greco-Roman Antiquity which had placed self-determination at the center of his philosophy and acknowledged the tragic nature of human existence.

Palabras llave : nihilism; the death of a single God; monotheism; transvaluation of all values.
