ABSTRACT Nietzsche values intellectual honesty, but is dubious about what he calls the will to truth. This is puzzling since intellectual honesty is a component of the will to truth. In this paper, I show that this puzzle tells us something important about how Nietzsche conceives of our pursuit of truth. For Nietzsche, those who pursue truth occupy unstable ground, since being honest about the ultimate reasons for that pursuit would mean that truth could no longer satisfy the important human needs it satisfies at present. We can pursue truth, or be honest about what in us is served by such a pursuit, but not both. Nietzsche aims to show that understanding and owning up to this instability is the sort of affirmation of human life to which we ought to aspire, and is the price we pay for being free from otherworldly morality.

尼采的诚实与真理意志

摘要尼采重视思想上的诚实，但对他所谓的真理意志存疑。这是令人困惑的，因为知识上的诚实是真理意志的组成部分。在本文中，我证明了这个难题告诉我们有关尼采如何构想我们追求真理的重要知识。对于尼采来说，追求真理的人处于不稳定的境地，因为诚实地追求真理的最终原因将意味着真理不再能够满足其目前满足的重要人类需求。我们可以追求真理，也可以对这样的追求对我们的内心诚实，但不能同时做到这两种。尼采旨在表明，理解和忍受这种不稳定性是我们应该追求的对人类生活的肯定，也是我们摆脱世俗道德所付出的代价。
