Of course, here as elsewhere, Nietzsche means by das Lebendige not only, or primarily, individual or biological life, but the life of culture, cultural vitality.

The paradox disappears when we realize that Nietzsche's Menschenliebe is not a Nächstenliebe but a Fernstenliebe and that the latter is not a love of (future) persons but a love of what they will create, the Gespenst of an unimaginably high culture.
10 Yet Hegel fails to notice that this transition is mediated by my own act of turning around and that this act is clearly non-dialectical. The sequence of statements that results when I attempt to articulate the determinate content of particular spatial regions as I turn from place to place can be understood dialectically. But this is due to the fact that they form a temporal series and does not imply that space is inherently dialectical. In fact, space must be presupposed as the non-dialectical context in which I turn around before these statements can be formulated, and from a transcendental point of view, it becomes the non-dialectical dimension of sensibility and pure intuition.
