Culture and perspectivism in Nietzsche's and Weber's view

This essay draws a comparison of perspectivism in Friederich Nietzsche's (1844-1900) and in Max Webers intellectual framework (1864-1920), aiming at demonstrating that, despite the affinity between both authors in thinking culture and life as a profusion of meanings and multiple values, that is, lacking any systemic unity, they radically differ when dealing with perspectivism . Such difference leads to distinct conceptions of knowledge, and critical evaluations concerning the cul ture of reason and history.
