Alfred Baumler is the name of a writer who distills from the maze of Nietzschean contradictions the doctrine of the people's common will to power. Baumler clarifies Nietzsche's thoughts on Christianity explaining that the expression "God is dead" is "the meaning of a historical fact." Baumler identifies Revolution as an awareness of the future with myth as an intense feeling about the past.
