NARANJO BOZA, Nicolás. NIETZSCHE Y BUERO VALLEJO: Lo apolíneo y lo dionisíaco en la tragedia En la ardiente oscuridad. Estud.filos [online]. 2006, n.33, pp.161-180. ISSN 0121-3628.

Summary. The thought of Friedrich Nietzsche’s The Birth of Tragedy is briefly recounted, particularly what pertains to the gods Apollo and Dionysus. Artisitic contents in the play In the Burning Darkness (En la ardiente oscuridad) are analyzed to explain how the world vision that is displayed in the first published book of the philosopher appears in this piece by the Spainard. The roads that enabled Buero Vallejo to know this work are traced and, in this sense, Miguel de Unamuno is granted a fundamental role. The analysis includes a thorough search of what Aristotle terms the evolution of the plot, its complication and denouement in Buero Vallejo’s play, bearing in mind the main characters. The theme of divine justice as expressed by the Pre-Socratic philosopher Anaximander is also brought into the essay to explain the presence of the divinities, as understood by Nietzsche, in the play. An explanation of how a philosophy is given form in a play meant to be represented, is given.
