Abstract

The article aims to examine the philosophy as a doctrine of the nearby things, as Nietzsche understands it according to the writings from the second period of his production. Thus, it is intended to show how the scientific and experimental method, practiced from Physiopsychology, leads the philosopher to the denial of the Platonic dualism and, hence, to the recovery of the body importance (as the closest thing) and of the world. As a denunciation of the contempt used by metaphysics, this philosophy is presented as a Lebensfreude, a joy to life.

Key words: experimentalism, body, shadow, joy, peregrine.
