This confrontation has as its starting point at the aphorism referred above the question of "style", which gives the opportunity to reflect about this question in Nietzsche, in this important moment of his work, turning point, as we know, especially from three other important "characters" to the discussion of this subject: Schopenhauer, Wagner and the French culture.Acesso AbertoGênero textualAforismoFilósofosPoetasNietzsche, Friedrich Wilhelm, 1844-1900Lessing, Gotthold Ephraim, $d 1729-1781Artigo de Periódico
