| Abstract | This paper aims to understand the main meanings attributed to laughter as an expression, symbol and metaphor, by the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche in Thus spoke Zarathustra . It also intends to submit the hypothesis of laughter as a phenomenon of movement par excellence, always linked to situations of creation and transformation of great significance in the context of the work, with important implications for the Nietzschean philosophy as a whole and, even more broadly, for the contemporary philosophy. This is because laughter, while recurring mobile element in Zarathustra , emerges as one of the strongest indications of the presence, or moreover, of the preeminence of the body in the Nietzschean philosophy: organic, dynamic, dancing body that now wishes to resume its place in philosophical thought in its relation to life. |
