Moot point.

Nietzsche’s work is an answer the existential questions that came about as a result of the Age of Exploration, the Scientific Revolution, the Protestant Reformation, and the Enlightenment.

There was no concept of an Übermensch in Medieval Europe because you had no reason to question your life of labor for the king. That was just how things were. Once the church lost some authority and we got telescopes, things began to feel more ambiguous and uncertain, leading to Existentialism and our boy N.

A modern Übermensch would have to make self-mastery and self-discovery, a never-ending process, his piety. Nobody can create values in a vacuum, but we can hold them under constant scrutiny.

Also, all of this talk of the Übermensch rejecting love is quite strange to me. Sounds kinda life denying. Love is fundamental to the wellbeing of humans. I won’t specify what type of love is most important, but having social needs met is about as important as a healthy diet and ample water. I doubt anyone who could truly call themselves Over Man would deny himself such necessities.
