Nietzsche is the name of the first philosopher whose writings establish values that let individuals rise above class conditions. His disgust for establishment idealism and conformist ideology urges him forward in his Icarian adventure. Since Nietzsche urges stem from "fire from heaven" akin to Icarus drawn to the sun with waxen wings that melt as he nears the goal, his fall is that much more severe. Once Nietzsche declares God dead, only catastrophic confusion, emptiness, and poverty remain. This chaos and emptiness persist until the creation of ant-ireligious and ethereal values arrive to replace them.
