%X Nietzsche's critique of metaphysics, as the way of the overcoming of the modern interpretation of being, is based on his doctrine of will to power, which evokes a certain kind of the return to the Greeks. Therefore, the paper points to the close relationship between Nietzsche's notion of the will to power and the Greek notion of physis, which is primarily stated in Aristotle's philosophy. For this reason, the relationship between Nietzsche's and Aristotle's philosophy is also explained. However, the fact that Nietzsche interprets the being by the notion of will is the sign that he succeeded to rid of modern metaphysics only partly, for the metaphysical concept of will is the modern interpretation of the Greek concept of physis. Subsequently, Nietzsche's metaphysics holds some ambivalence, which is reason for different interpretations of his undertaking.
