9 This is a minimalist ascription of naturalism to Nietzsche, but it is, I think the only sort justified. The topic is a complex one, though, and Nietzsche has different things to say about it in different contexts. For example, the famous “translate humanity back into nature passage” in BGE 230, and yet the attack on the Stoics, on the idea that one could actually live “according to nature,” (given that nature is mere “indifference”) in BGE 9. I agree with many of Christopher Janaway’s objections to more than minimal naturalist reading of Nietzsche in his ‘Naturalism and Genealogy’ (2006).
