Perspectivism




   Some other developments of Fred Neitzche philosophy include perspectivism, seeing the good in the underdog or those with less than good repute. Perspectivism demonstrates moving “beyond good and evil” in moral assessment. Even perpetrators of infamy are not devoid of merit. By viewing them with some degree of sympathy, we practice the art of idealization, an outlook Neitzche associates with theatre. Through theatre we learn to appreciate other's characters and motivations, and so, appreciate our own. This artistic way of looking at things is not malicious; nor does it encourage self-hatred or viciousness. Through these outlooks, we become more humane,and we can start to overcome moral judgmentalism.
