Abstract

At the end of the 18th and in the early 19th centuries, it was developed in the German cultural world the movement called Romanticism, which influenced in a crucial way in the contemporary historiographic work, one of its foremost critical voices being that of Friedrich Nietzsche. But Nietzschean criticisms of historiographic romanticism had an ambivalent nature: on the one hand, it will positively rescue the valuation made by the current of the Germanic aristocratic-heroic culture; but, on the other, it will negatively evaluate the Rousseaunian spirit with its Christian germ that also took with it. Here it is also to consider that Nietzsche’s evaluations on romantic trends did not stem as much as from political or academic appreciations, but as from vital-corporeal criteria.
