Abstract

Friedrich Nietzsche has enlivened a new life to modern tragedy, especially with regard to ancient Greece tragedy. By this fact, tragedy is not only a great and extraordinary literary and cultural achievement, but also the voice tone in the ear of modernity and a resonating and echoing index to explain the allegations and visions of modern world against the classic background. His explanation of the modern world can be both in the form of crticsis on this period and also openness to it, while his most prominent approach is due to dialectic of continuation of the living path in the midst of destruction. In fact, from then on, world history and universal views have been more comprehensive, including the tragic literature. Nietzsche has made the tragic era being marked to his name, and put behind the uncountable ideas is the world, since ancient Greece to modern Europe. He deals with metaphysics as something inevitable and totalized via The Birth of Tragedy and forms some of his education taught, based on this approach. This article investigates Nietzsche's metaphysical attitudes, which tries to respect the fundamental experience of Nietzsche's thought on metaphysical subjects. It attempts to interpret the metaphysics of Nietzsche, in The Birth of Tragedy which is built based solely on his views, where the target is to express the facts which are described by education
