Abstract

Since Nietzsche, ressentiment and resentment have been used in a number of philosophical, psychological, anthropological, historical, sociological, and political discourses. The aim of this contribution is not to propose a new interpretation of ressentiment and related feelings (such as envy, anger, and revenge), but rather, from a history of ideas perspective, to provide material for a history of how ressentiment, resentment, and the constellation of emotions associated with them have been employed by Nietzsche and other authors in their analyses of modern society. This contribution consists of three parts. The present one is devoted to Nietzsche himself and to some often conflicting interpretations that have been proposed of his notion of ressentiment. The second part, which will be published later in this journal, will address authors who used resentment, envy, and related concepts in interpreting society after the French Revolution. The third part will discuss more recent developments and uses of ressentiment/resentment.
