The paper reconstructs two attempts at outlining the scope of Nietzsche’s criticism of morality: the first attributes to Nietzsche a radical rejection of morality and associates him to an imoralist perspective; the second claims that his criticism aims at a particular morality, rooted on the Platonic/Christian tradition. The paper presents an alternative interpretation, arguing that, although Nietzsche’s criticism aims at any morality centred on the notion of obligation, this does not mean that it exhausts all the practical value domain.Downloads
