We are sorely lacking in tragedy, in culture generally and especially on the stage. So say these nine essays addressing the legacy of Nietzsche's theories of tragedy as a literary genre and of the tragic as an ontological concept. Drawing on The Birth of Tragedy and Nietzsche's later works, contributors examine various works and schools of thought that have or have not acknowledged their debt to Nietzsche. They address Nietzsche's influence as a tragic poet, Nietzsche's relation with Strindberg and the idea of tragedy, the Dionysian women of D'Annunzio and the rebirth of tragedy in Italy, elements of Nietzsche in Yeats's lyric poetry, Russian concepts of tragic philosophy and their debt to Nietzsche, Weil's take on the Holocaust in Mendelssohn is on the Roof, Artaud's take on Nietzsche and tragic politics, Nietzsche's influence on Our Town, and the Nietzschean spirit of Godard's Prénom Carmen.
