It is argued that the concepts of homology, analogy, omoplasy, convergence and parallelism do not need to be considered in terms of the opposition homology vs. analogy, omogeny vs. omoplasy, parallelism vs. convergence. Rather, such concepts point to planes and levels that are different but intersect one another in the complex world of the evolution, since the biological world itself is hierarchical, namely it is organized in various planes and levels that coexist without cancelling one another out. The evolution depends on structural constraints as well as natural selection but also on contigent and unpredictable events that are not inscribed in the ontogenetic structures and processes or in the adaptive pathway through natural selection even though they are correlated with both. from the epistemological standpoint the hierarchical view that acknowledges many biological levels has the advantage of extending the range of the concept of homology and making it more flexible. This holds for the structural and the developmental homology but also for the behavioural perspective. As the concept of homology is applied to the various levels of the biological organisation in such a way that the recognition of the homology at one level does not imply its recognition at any other level, so the concept of homology can be applied in the same way to the behaviour and its underlying structures.

Accordingly, the aim of this paper is to show that Nietzsche's philosophy suggested a view of the mind that allows to outline an alternative stance to both mentalism and physicalism, as well as to both dualism and reductionism. It is argued that Nietzsche's rehabilitation of the body as the specific seat of the mind in opposition to the Cartesian supremacy of the Ego still is of a great interest for contemporary philosophy, since it is not equivalent either to a reversed form of Cartesian dualism or to a physicalist reductionism. It is argued that Nietzsche did restrict the concept of the mind but in order not to eliminate it, rather to "de-substantialise" it. As the body is described as "Leib-Organisation", the mind becomes the course of various and manifold mental states that depend on a bodily basis.
