"This volume analyses the importance of cheerfulness, joy and laughter in Nietzsche's thought. A neglected topic in the secondary literature, the political implications of his thinking on joyfulness and its cultivation provide new insights into Nietzsche's key works and ideas. The 11 essays chart the importance of attending to his many references to festivity, cheerfulness, laughter, and joy, as well as his use of riddles, to reveal a version of Nietzsche who is far from the caricature of hopeless nihilism and instead is the unrealised champion of an alternative liberatory politics. Scholars from both philosophy and political science explore these emotions in Nietzsche's thought to situate their affirmative possibilities, illuminating their political character, as well as their broader significance to his philosophical aims. Contributors cover a wide range of topics; including, the attainment of joy in Human, All too Human, the possibility of cheerfulness after the death of God, Nietzsche's teachings on learning to laugh at oneself, the aesthetic of playfulness, and the role of riddles."--
