Faritov V.T. Transgression and Culture in the Friedrich Nietzsche's 'The Birth of Tragedy'

Abstract: The subject of the present article is the phenomenon of transgression in the first philosophical work of Friedrich Nietzsche - "The Birth of Tragedy". The author investigates the ontological aspects of such basic concepts of the teaching of young Nietzsche as Dionysian and Apollonian beginnings. The author of the article explicates the ontological content of the phenomena of culture, art and science in the interpretation of Nietzsche. He also reveals the place and role of the phenomenon of transgression in the being of culture and existence of human. The author also conducts a comparative analysis of certain provisions of "The Birth of Tragedy" with the ideas of Georg Hegel and Mikhail Bakhtin. In his research Faritov has used research methods adopted from contemporary non-classical philosophy and social sciences. Partially he has applied the methodological principles of Jungian paradigm. The main conclusion of the research is the thesis about the subordinate position of the Dionysian transgression to Apollonian beginning in art and culture. The author proves the thesis that young Nietzsche did not unequivocally state the priority of the Dionysian to the Apollonian. In his "The Birth of Tragedy" Nietzsche speaks as a philosopher of culture and art, and the Dionysian beginning is admitted as much as it can be transformed by the enlightening force of Apollonian art images and thus integrated into the culture.
