This paper is based on considerations by Gianni Vattimo and Jürgen Habermas on Nietzsche's institution of postmodernity as a "farewell" to Western Modernity and to the kind of rationality associated with it. Here we analyze how a "self-referential critique of reason" (Habermas) is actually engendered by Nietzschean aesthetic thought. We thus reconsider the terms in which the postmodern "farewell" itself should be conceived. ; Partindo das considerações de Gianni Vattimo e de Jürgen Habermas sobre a instauração nietzschiana da pós-modernidade como uma "despedida" à modernidade ocidental e ao tipo de racionalidade a ela associada, este texto analisa o modo pelo qual uma "crítica autorreferencial da razão" (Habermas) é efetivamente engendrada pelo pensamento estético nietzschiano, de modo a reconsiderar os termos pelos quais a própria "despedida" pós-moderna deve ser concebida.
