Nietzsche: The Anti-Christ, Ecce Homo, Twilight of the Idols
The Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy yet again struck gold, enshrining history's greatest thinkers in pre-eminently handsome texts, robust and readable translations, and scholarly and timely commentary and introductory exegesis. Despite Nietzsche's admonition greeting us in the very first prefatory page, this book belongs not to the few, but to all seeking meaning beyond society's ...

A Correction of False Vulgarization of Neitzsche
A recent interesing discussion encouraged this reviewer to comment on this book edited by the late Walter Kaufmann. This anthology undermines the false popularlization of Nietzsche, and serious readers get a better understanding of Nietzsche than is provided by critis many of whom have probably not read Nietzsche. One should avoid "slick manuals and canned opinions edited at the editor's table. ...

Dover Publications, 1997

A living thing seeks above all to discharge its strength--life itself is will to power
This was required reading for a graduate course in the Humanities. Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of a "will to power" is central to his philosophical beliefs, and a recurring theme in his book "Beyond Good and Evil." When Nietzsche was a budding philosopher, he admired and was influenced by the writings of another philosopher, Arthur Schopenhauer. However, Schopenhauer, like most scientists ...

Modern Library, 2000

This is what you've been waiting for.
Nietzsche IS the greatest philosopher of modern times, and this anthology is the perfect place to start if you're a student or new to Nietzsche. It's also a great bargain and collects several works together that one would be spending extra money on to get separately. I strongly reccomend this, as the works in here ( especially the Geneology of Morals, and Beyond Good and Evil) are key. I have ...

Excellent Piece of Philosophy--But have Kaufmann's at Your Side
This was the textbook to a college class on Zarathustra, and I have to say not only am I glad I took the class, I'm incredibly happy I have this book. First I'll tackle the negatives. The teacher used this instead of Kaufmann's translation because he noticed it packed in a few lines that Kaufmann's lacked: however it also discarded some. So essentially the translation is incomplete. ...

Book Jungle, 2007

One of the most challenging works I have ever read
Thus Spoke Zarathustra (originally Also Sprach Zarathustra) is considered by some (myself included) to have been the crowning work of the nineteenth century German philosopher Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900). Unlike most modern philosophical works, Zarathustra's format harkens back to the Bible and to the ancient Greek works such as Plato's dialogues. In it, Zarathustra wanders the ...

Wilder Publications, 2008

An essay against the Platonism for the poor
In this essay Nietzsche denounces Christianity "as the institutionalized negation of the will to live" (as did Adorno in his Negative Dialectics). For Nietzsche decadent morals, such as the Christian one, refer to an ideal order and make their codes conform to it, not to the reality. But the genesis of an ideal hides human (very human) reasons. Values and categorical imperatives arise from a ...

The Antichrist, 2008

Nietzsche was a philosopher. He wrote critiques of morality, religion, philosophy, and science. His influence remains substantial within philosophy. He is known for his distinct style and radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth.

A Wake Up Call for Christians: How the World Views Hypocrisy
"Die, Jew!" These words and other anti-Semitist phrases echo through the reader's mind as he studies this piece. Friedrich Nietzsche's Genealogy of Morals is the powerful piece of literature with more than controversial ideals. Upon reading it, one gets the sense that this work is the product of a demented, enraged mind. In the course of this reading, Nietzsche shows his ability to captivate ...

Correction
I feel obligated to correct a distortion suggested by `unraveler' below. It is popular to suggest Nietzsche was an anti-semite, but this is a rather lazy habit. Nietzsche's remark on `the youthful stock-exchange Jew' was mentioned. Here it is in its proper environment: . . . the entire problem of the Jews exists only within national states, inasmuch as it is here that their energy and higher ...

THE FAVOURITE: JOY THANKS TO LUCIDITY
For the admirers of Nietzsche and those who love to read him, "The Gay Science" is somehow their FAVOURITE BOOK. In this work the hughe, great German philosopher and psychologist (honour to whom it deserves!) confronts us with a rather fleet-footed, almost "dancing" way of writing about his eternal themes that never ever have left his thoughts, his way of thinking and his brilliant pen. HERE is ...

Unfashionable Observations
Nietzsche wrote "David Strauss, the Confessor and the Writer" in 1873, the first of his Unfashionable Observations, at the behest of Richard Wagner. David Strauss was an eminent theologian, whose The Life of Jesus Critically Examined (1864) had had a tremendous impact due to its demystification of Jesus' life. Strauss had contended that the supernatural claims made about the historical Jesus ...

The Will to Power book is better than Prozac and Zoloft
This book is a better anti-depressant and energizer than any antidepressant in the market. This book will give you more physical and mental strength than any visit to your therapist, any prozac and zoloft. I say this because i suffer from depression and low self esteem, and any time i read this book, it makes me want to lift weights and do something great. So if you feel low, and want to ...
