While, during much of the twentieth century, Bauer was remembered primarily for his relationship with the Young Marx, more recent scholarship has attempted to examine his work on its own terms, and to consider his unique contributions to the history of republicanism and radicalism in particular. But to date, no one has provided a systematic and synoptic account of his theology during the crucial years of 1838 to 1843. This article aims to fill that gap in the literature. It argues that Bauer’s political thought cannot be understood independently of his theology, his church and religious histories, and his Bible criticism. In doing so, it provides new insights into the significance of theology for the polemical debates of the Vormärz more generally.","PeriodicalId":22471,"journal":{"name":"The European Legacy","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135634313","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Psychology as a First Principle? Self-Love and the Will to Power in La Rochefoucauld and Nietzsche","authors":"Jiani Fan","doi":"10.1080/10848770.2023.2272449","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10848770.2023.2272449","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTBoth Nietzsche and La Rochefoucauld rejected metaphysical principles, such as the Kantian moral imperatives, and adopted psychology as their first philosophy. In this article I explore their views of self-love and of the will to power as the first principles of human motivation. Although both thinkers reduce actions to egoistic motives, they define the human drives and passions differently. While Nietzsche criticizes La Rochefoucauld’s view of a self-love-oriented intention as the principal cause of deeds, his interpretation is reductionist seeing that La Rochefoucauld also gives a quasi-expressivist account of deeds based on multiple drives. Unlike La Rochefoucauld, Nietzsche claims that there is no preexisting intention before or behind deeds, but rather that the doer expresses herself in and through her deeds. He laments that La Rochefoucauld’s concept of self-love is overshadowed by Christianity and criticizes him for condemning secular virtues as postlapsarian vices in disguise. Egoism, for Nietzsche, is a drive that is ingrained in the psyche for self-elevation. By comparing and contrasting their views, I conclude that self-love for La Rochefoucauld is pure self-affirmation at the expense of other drives or other agents, while Nietzsche’s notion of the will to power is a master-drive’s organization of other drives in service of the grander project of the self, which at the same time allows the subordinate drives to express themselves and fulfill the functions proper to their own nature. This interpretation sheds light on the key concept of egoism and the will to power in Nietzsche’s moral psychology, as well as on the first principles of human action in Nietzsche and La Rochefoucauld.KEYWORDS: Self-lovethe will to powermoral psychologyintentionalismnon- intentionalismFriedrich NietzscheFrançois de La Rochefoucauld AcknowledgementsI would like to express my gratitude to the copy editor and two anonymous reviewers for their invaluable suggestions.

In the extensive secondary literature on the will to power in Nietzsche, I draw mainly on Anderson, “Friedrich Nietzsche,” in The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, who interprets it as the interaction of “power-centers” in which the aim of each power is its own expansion; Maudemarie Clark, in Nietzsche on Truth and Philosophy, claims that the will to power refers not to the phenomenon in real life, but to Nietzsche’s value system; another theory, which accords with my interpretation, sees the will to power as a psychological agent, especially Bernard Reginster, who in The Affirmation of Life: Nietzsche on Overcoming Nihilism,126, deems it to be a force that overcomes various resistances and thus combats nihilism.
