On Nietzsche and Cioran

Cioran treats the Nietzschean theme of "the problem of Europe" in Écartèlement. The real pessimist, says Evola in Cavalcare, sees even will-to-power as vanitas. Cioran was a real pessimist. For him, Nietzsche's thirst for politics in the Grand Style is symptomatic; but no less so for Nietzsche is a pessimism like Cioran's.
