At the University of Basel Nietzsche met Bachofen, a scholar who had been cut off from academic circles. Bachofen disagreed with the Critical-Rationalist School from Berlin and proposed his own intuitive-speculative method. Drawing upon Bachofen’s method, Nietzsche could reach a more mature relationship with Philology which included the need of an interdisciplinary approach, the choice of intuition and instinct as essential elements to study Ancient Greece, and the rejection of mere erudition. Nietzsche’s aim was to study Ancient Greece in a different way, to get a better understanding of Modernity, and to rescue Philology from the dominant Critical-Rationalist School.
