Who is Nietzsche's Zarathustra?

Abstract

This article is concerned with the interpretations, genesis, and meanings of Nietzsche's Zaratustra as a conceptual character. Thus, the author advances the hypothesis and critics to Georges Morel's and Curt Paul Janz's interpretations of this question, but, especially, to Martin Heidegger's one, because he considers Zaratustra as the expression of Nietzschean eternal return.
