The present author interprets the death of the protagonist Aschenbach in the light of the symbolic dichotomy presented in Friedrich Nietzsche’ s (1844-1900) Birth of Tragedy (1872), i.e., from the conflict between the“ Appolonian” vs.“ Dionysian” worlds. After scrutinizing each chapter of this novel and analyzing the transition of Aschenbach’ s mental condition, the present author comes to the conclusion 1) that Venice is a symbolic theater for Aschenbach in which he played a tragedy for and by himself, and 2) that Aschenbach’ s death means the“ liberation” or“ emancipation” from the“ Appolonian” life, i.e., the daily rational life of the ordinary persons, and the“ re-birth” into the“ Dionysian” life, i.e., the lofty life of artists. By means of examining the Greek aestheticism in Death in Venice and understanding the fateful relationship between human life and art, which is the Leitmotiv of this work, we will able to penetrate into comprehension of 1) the affliction of those who must live in the modernized world and 2) the importance of the fantastic world as a shelter or an asylum of our spirit. Aschenbach, as a“ work of art,” obtains the eternal life in the“ Dionysian” world by his death in Venice. Projecting such a figure to the nature of Greek tragedy, we will be able to grasp the true meaning of our aspiring of the spiritual eternity of human beings through art activities.}, pages = {1--9}, title = {『ヴェニスに死す』の「死」の意味 : ニーチェの悲劇論からの解釈}, volume = {6}, year = {2004} }
