Abstract
The article aims to analyze the presence of Richard Wagner in the context of old Nietzsche’s critique of asceticism, namely in the Third Inquire of "Toward the genealogy of morals" (1887). To do so, I also apply the idea of gay science and elements from “The case of Wagner” (1888). In the end I hope to contribute not only for a better understanding of that critique —which transpires from within the bigger task of a revaluation of all values based, almost always, on the idea of will to power— but also, and more especially, of the concept of art and its uses, in the last nietzschean philosophy.
