Abstract:

Nietzsche is a philosopher who criticizes the concept of truth in general. However, some thinkers say that these criticisms are mostly about the concept of truth in religions and that they do not completely reject the truth and can never be considered a pioneer of postmodernism. In this study, Nietzsche's ideas about truth in his texts will be discussed, and his attitude towards truth will be tried to be revealed. First, Nietzsche's criticisms of Judaism and Christianity's understanding of truth will be revealed. Later, his criticisms of the ideas of truth in the history of philosophy will be examined. From this point of view, Nietzsche's determination that the real world is a fairy tale will be explained. Finally, aspects of Nietzsche's criticism of truth that may have influenced postmodern philosophy will be discussed. Thus, it will be claimed to be a predecessor for postmodern philosophy.
