An Interview with Terry Eagleton

[Mark Kohut]

That Hegel's legacy is vaster and less particular than had been thought, I will accept from those guys 
or anyone. 
 
But I give credit for originality to Nietzsche.

Kai,

"Nietzsche is a radical right-wing theorist...  they(Marx and
Nietzsche) are brilliant re-writers of
Hegel and not much else."

Original?  I apologize if I made it sound as if this was my personal
reading.  Thinkers well-read on both sides of the Western
Tradition(Left and Right, Zizek and Steve Smith for example) are more
than familiar with this and have been seeing it for more than 15-20
years.  It is "known" by those who are able to weather the
intoxicating storm of undergrad Marx and Nietsche.  Dangerously, some
never weather the intoxicating -ism of Marx and the the revel of
Nietzsche's intoxicating poetry.
