Philosopher as Performer

Nietzsche early conceives 'Socrates' as a detached spectator of Greek tragedy.  Thus, part of his subsequent anti-Platonist project is to re-cast the Philosopher as a performer--variously, e. g. as a tragic hero, an educator, or as a legislator.  However, as attempts to overturn Platonism, these alternatives are uncharacteristically misdirected.  For, Socrates, is, arguably, a tragic hero in the Apology, and a legislator in the Republic, while his Academy showcases Plato as an educator.  So, a more appropriate target of Nietzsche's heterodox project might be any advocate of 'Philosophy' as grounded in passive detachment, e. g. Hume, with his image of Mind as a theater spectator.
