Abstract

Our goal here is to present the vocabulary with which Nietzsche debates the possibility of education, analyzing the German words used by the philosopher, and also the context of its use, and thus detect the extent to which the philosopher believed in the possibility of education and what is required for this to occur. This will require further analysis, a whole conceptual network in which the debate on education fits in Nietzsche's thought, emphasizing the two opposing conceptual keys in the philosopher's thought: education for culture and education for civilization. Nietzsche follows certain German philosophical tradition that distinguishes civilization and culture, such division plays an important role in their conceptions of education.
