The True Meaning of The Eternal Return of The Same

Perfect transcendentalism is perfect realism.

Can you explain what it is you’re trying to say with this?

He can’t and he is trying to pull a fast one by referring to someone he thinks no one knows.

He took the obscure book and reworked it

The Myth of the Eternal Return

by Mircea Eliade

Now that is 1949 and he probably thought that protected him. Almost 80 years ago.

It’s from Friedrich Nietzsche, about 150 years ago.

Not as you actually used it

They describe fundamentally different concepts. Nietzsche’s is a radical existential challenge meant to affirm life, whereas Eliade’s is a mythological and metaphysical mechanism used by ancient societies to escape the pain of history.

You used the SAME and so N. does not apply. N. is a few thousand years later

And then too, such a title could lead the readerto suppose that the book was principally concerned withthe celebrated Greek myth or with its modern reinterpretation by Nietzsche, which is by no means the case. says Elliade

I don’t see “of the same” in the title of the book you use, but it looks mediocre so I won’t go reading it to confirm.

Nietzsche, however, did use it.

Eternal return of the same = Nietzsche way of rescuing immortality.
