Nietzsche's reception of Spinoza is of critical importance for the will to power. With regard to its critical direction, philosophical problematics, and historical originality, the will to power can only be understood in the context of Nietzsche's reading of Spinoza. This study investigates the relationship between their receptions to cast new light on Nietzsche's philosophy of power.
