In a four-part series, Dr. David M. Peña-Guzmán discusses Nietzsche's Genealogy of Morality. In this second lecture, he discusses Treatise 1, where Nietzsche introduces his famous distinction between two codes of moral evaluation: the morality of the nobles and the morality of the slaves. Who are the nobles? And how do they differ from the slaves? And what kind of moral revolt took place when the slavish morality of the Christians, according to Nietzsche, won over the life-affirming morality of the nobles?
