Abstract

The paper presents Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche’s reflections about education (Erziehung) in his works Human all to Human and Daybreak. In a first moment, we present Nietzsche’s critic of morality of customs and the relation with his reflections about education. In a second moment, we show the peculiarity of the figure of the free spirit and his relation with this critic. The free spirit is the typology in which the morality of customs critic reaches its maturity, a kind of positive consciousness about the unavoidable necessity of critic.
