This article tries to examine modern humanism and the position of the concept of the subject from Nietzsche's critical point of view, considering the importance and position of instinct compared to consciousness. Man as the subject and subject of knowledge has a privileged position in modern metaphysics, and basically, modernity has an inseparable link with the subject and consciousness. Nietzsche's criticism of the subjective concept of modern man and the revival of the elemental instinct in the drawing of the human face is considered a fundamental criticism of modernity. In this research, firstly, the relationship between instinct and consciousness is examined in the theoretical foundations, focusing on the thought of Rousseau and Schopenhauer, and then the relationship between instinct and moral values, as well as the desire for truth in Nietzsche's view, is investigated. Nietzsche believes that the reduction of man to consciousness (the knowing subject) requires ignoring other dimensions of human existence, such as physical, instinctive, emotional, and historical dimensions, and as a result, he considers the image of modern man as a subject to be an incomplete form of man, which, despite the cognitive and moral centrality in modern metaphysics, has ignored important aspects of human being and natural dimensions that can lead to his prosperity. This article finally deals with the place of body and instinct as natural dimensions of human existence and their priority over mind and subjective consciousness in Nietzsche's anthropology.

What is the Truth in Nietzsche’s philosophy? This is the main problem of the present article, in the light of which an attempt has been made, within the framework of the requirements and limitations of this article, to provide an introduction to the discussion of presenting a monistic-idealistic-dynamic conception of Nietzsche. In this regard, first of all, as the introduction, the crisis facing any form of Nietzschean research will be briefly mentioned in order to provide possibilities for formulating the main idea of the article. Then, focusing on Nietzsche's various functions of truth and his dualistic (negative/positive or critical/supportive) encounter with this concept, we will address his main critiques of truth in three ways: 1. Critique of dualism; 2. Critique of essentialism; and 3. Criticism of stability. Finally, with the help of the results of these discussions, a preliminary outline of Nietzsche's monistic-idealistic-dynamic conception will be drawn at the end of the article.

We and our world are caught in the last period of nihilism. The remarkable point is the durability of this situation, and that the time for the end of this situation is unclear. The concern of this article is understanding the nihilism, especially its last kind, understanding of the nihilism in order to provide the possibility of the thinking about the conditions of the liberation from that. For this purpose, we should understand three kinds of nihilism: negative, reactive, and passive; Understanding these three kinds, especially its last kind, which is the property of the present situation. For the explanation of this step of nihilism, we will resort to a Nietzschean-Deleuzian concept and then try to transmit the affective aspect of this concept to the reader in order for the necessity of the liberation from our nihilistic situation to be sensed affectively. At this point of the analysis, the argument is ready for thinking to the next step, which proceeds by understanding the distinction between the last step of nihilism and the condition of liberation from that. Therefore, the trajectory of the article is like this: explanation of kinds of nihilism: 1) negative. 2) reactive. 3) passive. 4) and the liberation from nihilism.
