Kant, Nietzsche y el problema de la existencia moral

Abstract

This writing aims to put under discussion Kant´s and Nietzche´s philosophies regarding the problem of moral existence. Without taking into account the mediations of the possible lectures between the philosophy of the thinker from Konigsberg and Nieztche´s interpretation of his work, we try to contrast some selected texts of theirs. These writings argue the problem of moral existence. Once he destroyed the basis on which metaphysics used to be erected, Kant will still try to give a far reaching background to moral behaviour. Nietzche, on the other hand, will try to take Kant´s enlightened theory to its last consequence up to such an extent, that he will undermine every intent of moral sustent. Our target is to renew this discussion, since we believe it revivifies one of the most important and problematic issues of modern philosophy, which is of great influence still today.
