This article aims to analyze, at first, the meaning of Jesus-figure by Nietzsche’s psychology presented in The Antichrist. More precisely, this article starts from a questioning of this typology; then, it aims to converge this psychological strategy with a semiotics, i.e., an analysis of uses of signs by the “type” Jesus. After contextualizing the discussion on the Jesus-figure as “symbolist” and “antirealist”, this article goals to show how Nietzsche elaborates in his later works (1888 writings) an symbolic confrontation between Jesus and Dionysus, and from that we seek to indicate some conclusionsDownloads
