While there has been no lack of "psychological" studies that</p> <p>have sought to illuminate Nietzsche's philosophy of religion by</p> <p>interpreting his biography, this monograph is the first comprehensive</p> <p>study to approach the topic through the philosopher's own psychological</p> <p>thinking. The author shows how Nietzsche's critical writings on religion,</p> <p>and especially on religious decline and future possibilities, are informed</p> <p>by his psychological thinking about moods. The author furthermore</p> <p>argues that the clarification of this aspect of the philosopher's work is</p> <p>essential to interpreting some of the most ambiguous words found in his</p> <p>writings; the words that God is dead. Instead of merely denying the</p> <p>existence of God in a way that leaves a melancholic need for religion or a</p> <p>futile search for replacements intact, Nietzsche arguably envisions the</p> <p>possibility of a radical atheism, which is characterized by a mood of joyful</p> <p>doubt. The examination of this vision should be of great interest to</p> <p>scholars of Nietzsche and of the history of philosophy, but also of</p> <p>relevance to all those who take an interest in the interdisciplinary</p> <p>discourse on secularization.</p>.
