Birth of Tragedy

This affirmation of the vital provided him with a standard he applied to the history of culture, criteria used in his book The Birth of Tragedy, where two tendencies were dominant — two gods: Dionysus and Apollo — within Greek culture. Being a scholar of classical studies, Nietzsche was a professor of philology at the University of Basel, at age 24.
In the Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche dramatizes the Dionysian, dynamic, creative, ecstatic, and frenzied impulse, contrasting it to the Apollonian reason, which embodied order, discipline, and art.
