title = "Nietzsche on virtue",
abstract = "The author argues for an interpretation of Nietzsche on virtue according to which Nietzsche believes that because different people have different constellations of instincts and other drives, and because instincts and drives can only be shaped and redirected within boundaries, he recommends different virtues as fitting and conducive to flourishing for different types of people. In his own type, these include curiosity, intellectual courage, the pathos of distance, having a sense of humor, and solitude. This interpretation is supported by both a digital humanities methodology and close readings of passages from Nietzsche{\textquoteright}s middle, mature, and late works.",
