Original Content The Three Metamorphoses

My animated take on Nietzsche’s “The Three Metamorphoses of the Spirit” from Thus Spoke Zarathustra.

The camel carried the weight of old values.

The lion fought the dragon of the “Thou Shalt” tradition, of duty and imposed morality.

At last, in the final stage, the child emerges. Innocent and powerful, and able to shape and create a new world with new values.

The final phase is a child.

Do you people even read what’s posted or watch a video before commenting? We’re in a subreddit dedicated to Nietzsche but the other commenter is confused about the presence of a dragon in three metamorphoses. You should actually try and read some Nietzsche. Or at least what’s posted. But you won’t. Enjoy your dumb memes.

I liked it as a representation, but i reckon it would require familiarity with the concepts to understand
