Summary/Abstract: The eternal return is the greatest burden of man, but at the same time, a triumph of life, a resurrection of the tragic that is meant to fill the gaps arising from the lack of God. Nihilism comes to integrate naturally into a dimension in which morality becomes the instinct of the individual flock, where good and evil are re-evaluated values, and after the process evil is preferable to good and nothing good. All the ideas of the nihilist philosopher come at some point to serve the will to power and the ideal of a vitalism that falls into the abyss of fatalism. Once God's death is proclaimed, man must take his place. How will man rise to this higher rank? Is there morality in the process of rebellion?
