1. Explain what Nietzsche means:

“In the end modern man drags an immense amount of indigestible knowledge stones around with him which on occasion rattle around in his belly, as the fairy tale has it. . . . Knowledge, taken in excess without hunger, even contrary to need, no longer acts as a transforming motive impelling to action and remains hidden in a certain chaotic inner world which that modern man, with a curious pride, calls his unique “inwardness” . . . ” (p. 24)

2.Explain Nietzsche’s claim:

“The education of German youth, however, proceeds precisely from thsi false and unfruitful concept of culture; its aim, quite purely and loftily conceived, is not all the liberally education man but the scholar, the scientific man, . . . its result, viewed in a mean empirical way, si the historico-aesthetic cultural Philistine, the precocious newly wise chatter box on matters of state, church, and art, . . .” (p. 59).
