Морбидният дискурс в живота и творчеството на Ницше и П. П. Славейков
The Morbid Discourse in the Life and Creative Works of Nietzsche and P. P. Slaveykov

Summary/Abstract: The initial impulse that provoked the writing of this text was the suspicion cast on some of the theories that exist in the scientific literary sources that deal with the role of the ‘illness’ in the life and work of Nietzsche and P. P. Slaveykov. Those suspicions were induced by the fact that those existing theories interpret the idea of morbidity too superficially and tend to use the concept as a thematic framework, which does not result in any heuristic productivity. So as to avoid similar result this text focuses on the texts of Nietzsche and P.P. Slaveykov as a subject to examine, and in terms of problems discussed, the text focuses on the complex spectrum of ‘uses’ of morbidity treated therein. What we will deal with in this present survey is, naturally, not so much the accurate ‘decoding’ of Nietzsche’s patogram, or the ‘reading’ of Slaveykov’s texts by means of psychoanalysis, but we will rather focus our attention on the personal reflections and meditations of both authors on their illnesses and physical suffering.
