Abstract [eng] Summary The master thesis analyzes two interpretations of F. Nietzsche’s nihilism: M. Heidegger’s and K. Lowith’s ones. The interpretation of F. Nietzsche’s nihilism is relevant to M. Heidegger since it reveals the fact that not only a man is the creator of the reality. It already exists and a man interacting with the reality cares for his own temporary entity. Meanwhile, F. Nietzsche named the reality as chaos to which a man seeks to provide form. M. Heidegger, interpreting F. Nietzsche’s nihilism, paid the greatest attention to reveal the ontological problems such as: What is the sense of a man’s being? What is a man’s relationship with the reality? What is the truth? The interpretation of F. Nietzsche’s nihilism is relevant to K. Lowith from the perspective of the philosophical anthropology in which the greatest attention is paid to discuss Western people’s correlation which allowed F. Nietzsche to state that there are no moral phenomena but only their interpretations. On the other hand, K. Lowith thought that there are no moral phenomena in oneself but it does not mean that they are not in a man. M. Heidegger’s and K. Lowith’s interpretations of F. Nietzsche’s nihilism are also compared in the master thesis which allows to highlight these philosophers’ different approaches to the theory of F. Nietzsche’s nihilism.
