Résumé
The aim of this essay is to seek out the prototype of the last man in Dawn, Thoughts on the Presumptions of Morality (1881) and to present them in the light of the critique of prejudices as it is carried out in this work. In the third book, in particular, one can find an exact representation of the last man. Under the features of modern humanity and its prejudices, it is first and foremost the aporia of a certain type of man that Nietzsche highlights before appealing to the arrival of the superman a few years later.
