Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Ascetic Ideal, Stephen Mulhall shows how areas of cultural life that seem to be either essentially unconnected to evaluative commitments (science and philosophy) or to involve non-moral values (aesthetics) are in fact deeply informed by ethico-religious commitments, for better and for worse. The book develops a reading of Nietzsche's concept of 'the ascetic ideal', which he used to track the evolution, mutation, and expansion of the system of slave moral values, associated primarily with Judaeo-Christian religious belief through diverse fields of Western European culture—not just religion and morality, but aesthetics, science, and philosophy. Mulhall also offers an interpretation of Nietzsche's genealogical method that aims to rebut standard criticisms of its nature, and to emphasize its potential for enhancing philosophical understanding more generally. The focus throughout is on developments in those fields which occurred after the end of Nietzsche's intellectual career, and in particular on influential modes of thought and practice that have a contemporary significance. The goal is not simply to argue that Nietzsche's diagnosis and critique retains considerable merit, but also to show that Nietzsche is himself significantly indebted to the ideals he criticizes, and that this opens up a possibility of synthesizing elements of his approach with those drawn from its target. Hence, the book also tracks various ways in which the object of Nietzsche's criticism has undergone further mutations (just as his genealogical method would suggest), and in doing so has generated ways of pursuing the values central to asceticism that avoid Nietzsche's criticisms, and might even further his own goals.

CHAPTER IV THE MYSTICAL IDEAL--FELLOWSHIP I THE intimate conjunction of the human and the divine effected by the Incarnation of the Son of God was rendered possible by the fact that an essential kinship already existed between them, awaiting its perfect realisation.1 That kinship has declared itself throughout man's history by creating in him an enduring desire for God, and by moving him, not infrequently with a strong urgency, to search out God, to commune with Him, and in some way to find union with Him: and men everywhere have striven to satisfy this deepest and truest craving of their nature by the practice of an asceticism which may be called "mystical," since it is undertaken as a means of initiation into the mysteries and privileges of divine fellowship. This fellowship is variously conceived. It is sought by men generally as a present sustained association, dependent upon the establishment and maintenance of sympathetic relations: and by specialists as a series of fitful invasions by which from time to time men's bodies are "possessed" by the divine at will, or as a continuing process of self-emancipation, culminating in the complete absorption of man's individual personality in the All, or, again, as a rarelyaccorded ecstatic communion enjoyed by the human spirit as a divinely permitted favour after due self-preparation. Where this ecstatic union is sought, the soul prepares itself for deliverance from its material habitation and from senseperceptions so that it may sometimes be caught up in and 1 Cf. H. M. Relton, A Study in Christology, an able treatment of the doctrine of the Enhypostasia, which is " rooted and grounded in the belief that there is an essential affinity between the human and the Divine " (p. 229). 74 wholly...
