Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German classical scholar, philosopher, and critic of culture, who became one of the most influential of all modern thinkers. He began his career as a classical philologist before turning to philosophy. He became the youngest person to hold the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel in 1869 at the age of 24, but resigned in 1879 due to health problems that plagued him most of his life; he completed much of his core writing in the following decade. In 1889, at age 44, he suffered a collapse and afterward a complete loss of his mental faculties, with paralysis and probably vascular dementia. He lived his remaining years in the care of his mother until her death in 1897 and then with his sister Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. Nietzsche died in 1900, after experiencing pneumonia and multiple strokes.Nietzsche's work spans philosophical polemics, poetry, cultural criticism, and fiction while displaying a fondness for aphorism and irony. Prominent elements of his philosophy include his radical critique of truth in favour of perspectivism; a genealogical critique of religion and Christian morality and a related theory of master–slave morality; the aesthetic affirmation of life in response to both the "death of God" and the profound crisis of nihilism; the notion of Apollonian and Dionysian forces; and a characterisation of the human subject as the expression of competing wills, collectively understood as the will to power. He also developed influential concepts such as the Übermensch and his doctrine of eternal return. In his later work, he became increasingly preoccupied with the creative powers of the individual to overcome cultural and moral mores in pursuit of new values and aesthetic health. His body of work touched a wide range of topics, including art, philology, history, music, religion, tragedy, culture, and science, and drew inspiration from Greek tragedy as well as figures such as Zoroaster, Arthur Schopenhauer, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Richard Wagner, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.After his death, Nietzsche's sister Elisabeth became the curator and editor of his manuscripts. She edited his unpublished writings to fit her German ultranationalist ideology, often contradicting or obfuscating Nietzsche's stated opinions, which were explicitly opposed to antisemitism and nationalism. Through her published editions, Nietzsche's work became associated with fascism and Nazism. 20th-century scholars such as Walter Kaufmann, R.J. Hollingdale, and Georges Bataille defended Nietzsche against this interpretation, and corrected editions of his writings were soon made available. Nietzsche's thought enjoyed renewed popularity in the 1960s and his ideas have since had a profound impact on 20th- and early 21st-century thinkers across philosophy—especially in schools of continental philosophy such as existentialism, postmodernism, and post-structuralism—as well as art, literature, music, poetry, politics, and popular culture.

Além do bem e do mal
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nietzsche considerava 'Além do bem e do mal' seu livro mais importante e mais abrangente. Quase todos os temas de sua obra madura estão presentes aqui - o perspectivismo, a vontade de poder e suas ramificações, a crítica da moralidade, a psicologia da religião e a definição de um tipo de homem nobre.
Also sprach Zarathustra. Ein Buch für Alle und Keinen
Friedrich Nietzsche
Gott ist tot. Und die Menschen haben es noch nicht bemerkt? Die Religion? Ein Götzendienst in einer sinnentleerten Welt. Was ist schon gut und böse, wenn das oberste Ziel des Lebens in der Relativität der Werte versinkt? Zarathustra ist der Verkünder des neuen Heils: "Ich will die Menschen den Sinn ihres Seins lehren -- welcher ist der Übermensch." Jenes vollkommene Wesen, "rechtwinklig an Geist und Seele", das die Kranken und Schwachen verachtet, die moralinsauren Spießbürger, deren neuer Götze der Staat ist, die Asketen, die ihren Leidenschaften nur das Deckmäntelchen der Tugend überstreifen. Wie Blitze lässt Zarathustra seine Wut, seine Provokation und seine Polemik hernieder fahren auf das Volk.
Reden sind dazu gemacht, gehört zu werden. In der Rede erlangen die Worte, die Nietzsche dem Weltverbesserer Zarathustra in den Mund legt, ihre ganze Kraft. Peter Wapnewski, Professor der Deutschen Literatur -- ein Könner wahrlich in der Kunst des Rezitierens -- lässt sich ein auf die Dichte des Textes. Ein zweifelndes Zögern, ein Schneiden der Stimme, ein Moment atemloser Stille, bevor ein neues Gewitter aus Zorn und Begeisterung gleichermaßen auf den Hörer hernieder fährt. Eindringlich und lebendig ist die Vertonung der drei ersten und wichtigsten Reden Zarathustras aus Nietzsches zentralem Werk.
Doch was gilt schon der Prophet im eigenen Land? "Damals trugst du deine Asche zu Berge, willst du heute dein Feuer in die Täler tragen", ruft der Gläubige Zarathustra zu, als der nach 10-jähriger Einsiedelei zu den Menschen zurückkehren will, "fürchtest Du nicht des Brandstifters Strafen?" Nietzsche ist nicht Zarathustra und doch hat auch er vom geistigen Brandstifter über den Jugendverderber bis zum geisteskranken Wirrkopf fast jeden Titel getragen. Der geistige Missbrauch durch die Nationalsozialisten hat seine Spuren hinterlassen. Trotz allem lohnt sich die Wiederentdeckung Nietzsches. Die Vertonung von Peter Wapnewski eröffnet Kennern eine neue Dimension und bringt Ersthörer auf einen guten Weg. --Cornelia Eulitz --
A Nietzsche Reader
Friedrich Nietzsche
The literary career of Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) spanned less than twenty years, but no area of intellectual inquiry was left untouched by his iconoclastic genius. The philosopher who announced the death of God in The Gay Science (1882) and went on to challenge the Christian code of morality in Beyond Good and Evil (1886), grappled with the fundamental issues of the human condition in his own intense autobiography, Ecce Homo (1888). Most notorious of all, perhaps, his idea of the triumphantly transgressive übermann ('superman') is developed in the extreme, yet poetic words of Thus Spake Zarathustra (1883-92). Whether addressing conventional Western philosophy or breaking new ground, Nietzsche vastly extended the boundaries of nineteenth-century thought.
Anti-Education: On the Future of Our Educational Institutions (New York Review Books Classics)
Friedrich Nietzsche
In 1869, at the age of twenty-five, the precociously brilliant Friedrich Nietzsche was appointed to a professorship of classical philology at the University of Basel. He seemed marked for a successful and conventional academic career. Then the philosophy of Schopenhauer and the music of Wagner transformed his sense of purpose. The genius of such thinkers and makers—like the genius of the ancient Greeks—was the only touchstone for true understanding. How then was education to answer to such genius? Something more than sturdy scholarship was called for. A new way of teaching and questioning, a new philosophy... What that new way might be was the question Nietzsche broached in five vivid, popular public lectures in Basel in 1872. Composed in emulation (and to some degree as a satire) of a Platonic dialogue, Anti-Education presents a provocative and timely reckoning with what remains one of the great problems of modern societies.

Friedrich Nietzsche
'We must learn to love, learn to be kind, and this from our earliest youth ... Likewise, hatred must be learned and nurtured, if one wishes to become a proficient hater'
This volume contains a selection of Nietzsche's brilliant and challenging aphorisms, examining the pleasures of revenge, the falsity of pity, and the incompatibility of marriage with the philosophical life.

Así hablaba Zaratustra
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche's most accessible and influential philosophical work, misquoted, misrepresented, brilliantly original and enormously influential, Thus Spoke Zarathustra is translated from the German by R.J. Hollingdale in Penguin Classics.
Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary and subversive thinkers in Western philosophy, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra remains his most famous and influential work. It describes how the ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from his solitude in the mountains to tell the world that God is dead and that the Superman, the human embodiment of divinity, is his successor. Nietzsche's utterance 'God is dead', his insistence that the meaning of life is to be found in purely human terms, and his doctrine of the Superman and the will to power were all later seized upon and unrecognisably twisted by, among others, Nazi intellectuals. With blazing intensity and poetic brilliance, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission to authority, but in an all-powerful life passionate, chaotic and free.

Así habló Zaratustra, el libro más célebre y controvertido de toda la obra nietzscheana, se sirve de la figura semilegendaria del filósofo persa del siglo vi a.C. para desarrollar, en una trama de elementos narrativos, conceptuales y líricos, los cuatro grandes temas que integran su legado: el superhombre, la muerte de Dios, la voluntad de poder y el eterno retorno de lo idéntico.

Así hablo Zaratustra (Pensamiento ilustrado)
Friedrich Nietzsche
Así habló Zaratustra es la obra cumbre de Friedrich Nietzsche, aquella en la que concentra los pilares de su filosofía y despoja al hombre moderno de la ilusión de la existencia de un ser superior que le da sentido al mundo. Ahora, el sentido debe crearlo el hombre por sí mismo. Aquí desarrolla su conocida idea del superhombre, en la que el ser humano no puede dar por concluida su evolución sino que debe seguir creciendo y superarse a sí mismo. Pocos conocen que esta es también una narración amena, con una prosa poética, plagada de metáforas cuyo misterio, en ocasiones, oscurece el mensaje y lo deja intencionadamente abierto. Una gran oportunidad para acercarse hoy a la gran creación literaria del filósofo alemán.
Así habló Zaratustra (Spanish Edition)
Friedrich Nietzsche
"Así habló Zaratustra" es la obra cumbre del filósofo, poeta, músico y filólogo Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche. Esta obra refleja la fusión de la filosofía, la literatura y la poesía en un todo muy bien organizado, orquestado y fusionado en una sencilla historia, la del filósofo persa del siglo VI A.C. Zaratustra (creador de la religión del Zoroastrismo) que sirve como pretexto para explicar, desarrollar y expresar las principales visiones, reflexiones y temas del autor; a saber, el Eterno retorno, la muerte de Dios, el übermench (superhombre) y la voluntad de poder."Así habló Zaratustra" es una de esas obras universales, tan escasas en número, que han trascendido disciplinas, géneros, fronteras e idiomas, y que han llegado a formar parte de eso que se llama confusamente cultura general. Su profunda influencia en el ámbito cultural europeo, indica que una investigación de su impacto en las distintas naciones de nuestro continente, tiene que convertirse necesariamente en una historia de la cultura europea del siglo XX.
Así habló Zaratustra / Thus Spoke Zarathustra (Spanish Edition)
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus Spake Zarathustra
Assim falou Zaratustra: um livro para todos e para ninguém
Friedrich Nietzsche
Um dos trabalhos filosóficos mais lidos e influentes de todos os tempos, Assim falou Zaratustra talvez deva sua extraordinária fortuna ao seu caráter híbrido: filosofia, religião e literatura nele se juntam de maneira complexa e atraente. Ao publicar Além do bem e do mal, livro imediatamente posterior, Nietzsche revelou ao amigo Jacob Burckhardt que a nova publicação continha “as mesmas coisas que havia dito antes pela boca de Zaratustra, mas de modo diferente, bem diferente”. De fato, o leitor reconhecerá, na linguagem metafórica e alegórica dos discursos e diálogos de Zaratustra, muitas das ideias que seriam desenvolvidas em prosa reflexiva nas obras posteriores - ou que já haviam sido abordadas em Aurora e A gaia ciência, livros aos quais ele chegou a se referir como “comentários ao Zaratustra antes que ele aparecesse”.

Beyond Good and Evil
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche's Beyond Good and Evil is translated from the German by R.J. Hollingdale with an introduction by Michael Tanner in Penguin Classics.
Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche's position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects the tradition of Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche demonstrates that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a 'slave morality'. With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual imposes their own 'will to power' upon the world.
This edition includes a commentary on the text by the translator and Michael Tanner's introduction, which explains some of the more abstract passages in Beyond Good and Evil.
Frederich Nietzsche (1844-1900) became the chair of classical philology at Basel University at the age of 24 until his bad health forced him to retire in 1879. He divorced himself from society until his final collapse in 1899 when he became insane. A powerfully original thinker, Nietzsche's influence on subsequent writers, such as George Bernard Shaw, D.H. Lawrence, Thomas Mann and Jean-Paul Sartre, was considerable.
If you enjoyed Beyond Good and Evil you might like Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra, also available in Penguin Classics.
"One of the greatest books of a very great thinker." —Michael Tanner
Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future
Friedrich Nietzsche
Returning to a favorite theme, Nietzsche offers a wealth of fresh insights into the self-destructive urge of Christianity, the prevalence of "slave moralities" and the terrible dangers in the pursuit of philosophical or scientific truth.
Böyle Buyurdu Zerdüşt
Friedrich Nietzsche
Saygılı, dayanıklı ve kuvvetli bir ruhun ağır yükleri vardır. Onun kuvveti, daima ağırı ve en ağırı ister. "Ağır nedir?" Dayanıklı ruh böyle sorar. Deve gibi diz çöker ve iyi yüklenmek ister. Yiğitler,
"En ağır şey nedir ki omzuma alayım ve kuvvetime sevineyim?" der. Her türlü cefayı çekebilen ruh böyle sorar. Kibirini zedelemek için alçalmak mı? Hikmetiyle alay için deliliğini belli etmek midir? Yoksa, zaferini kutlayan bir davadan ayrılmak mı?
Gerçeğin aşkıyla ruhta açlık çekmek midir? Hasta olmak ve teselliye geleni geri çevirmek ve senin istediğini hiçbir zaman duyamayan sağırlarla dostluk yapmak mıdır? Bizi hor görenleri sevmek ve bizi korkutmak isteyen hayalete el uzatmak mıdır? İçinde gerçek var, diye kirli sulara dalmak ve soğuk kurbağaları, sıcak yengeçleri itememek midir? Bütün bu en güç şeyleri dayanıklı bir ruh yüklenir. Yükünü almış ve çöl yolunu tutan bir deve gibi o da kendi çölüne doğru yürür.
Alışılagelmiş söylemlerin dışına çıkıp, düşünerek hayatın önemini anlatan, insanın hayatını daha da anlamlandıran bir başucu kitabı elinizde tutuyorsunuz. Akıcı, doyurucu ve zengin dili ile tüm dünyada onlarca yıldır okunan eşsiz bir eser.
Nietzsche'nin düşüncelerinin en yüksek düzeye eriştiği olgunluk dönemi, 'Böyle Buyurdu Zerdüşt' adlı bu eseri ile başlar. Bu eser, Nietzsche Felsefesi'nin de ana kitabıdır.

Così parlò Zarathustra
Friedrich Nietzsche
Un antico profeta persiano torna in un mondo moralmente lacerato per rimediare al suo errore: aver creduto che l'universo fosse fondato sulla lotta tra Bene e Male.
Deciso a liberare gli uomini dalla morale cristiana, Zarathustra diventa il profeta della saggezza dionisica, gioiosa accettazione della vita in ogni aspetto. In un crescendo di prediche dissacratorie e parabole alla rovescia, l'azione culmina nell'incontro tra il protagonista e le patetiche figure di sofferenti che simboleggiano un'umanità inadeguata a comprendere la dottrina di Zarathustra: la morte di dio, il Superuomo, l'eterno ritorno di tutte le cose, l'attesa fiduciosa di un'umanità migliore.
Così parlò Zarathustra. Un libro per tutti e per nessuno
Friedrich Nietzsche
L’idea di Così parlò Zarathustra balenò a Nietzsche come una folgorazione nell’agosto del 1881, in Engadina, «6000 piedi al di là dell’uomo e del tempo». Essa coincise con il rivelarsi dell’eterno ritorno, la misteriosa intuizione che segna il passaggio alla ultima fase del pensiero di Nietzsche e lo tramuta tutto dall’interno. Così anche lo Zarathustra rielabora e ripresenta tutto ciò che Nietzsche era stato fino allora in una forma assolutamente nuova, e soprattutto in una forma incompatibile con i canoni della filosofia occidentale. «Un libro per tutti e per nessuno» dice il sottotitolo: proprio perché obbliga il pensiero a parlare immediatamente, fuori da ogni tecnicismo, in una forma poetica e profetica, Zarathustra è sempre stato il libro più letto e venerato di Nietzsche, ma al tempo stesso è il suo libro di enigmi, protetto da saldi sigilli, un libro che sorprende e appare diverso ogni volta che lo si apre. Nietzsche fu del tutto conscio di questo doppio carattere dello Zarathustra, e in certo modo di tutta la sua opera. In una lettera del 1884 scriveva: «Chissà quante generazioni dovranno trascorrere per produrre alcune persone che riescano a sentire dentro di sé ciò che ho fatto! E anche allora mi terrorizza il pensiero di tutti coloro che, ingiustificatamente e del tutto impropriamente, si richiameranno alla mia autorità. Ma questo è il tormento di ogni grande maestro dell’umanità: egli sa che, in date circostanze del tutto accidentali, può diventare con la stessa facilità una sventura o una benedizione per l’umanità».
Crepuscle dels ídols
Friedrich Nietzsche
Llibre de maduresa, el darrer del qual Nietzsche va poder controlar l’edició, el Crepuscle dels ídols és una superba introducció a tota la seva filosofia i una mostra preexcel·lent de la seva particular manera de «filosofar amb el martell», tal com indica el subtítol de l’obra. El filòsof hi identifica la decadència de l’Europa del segle XIX i malda per destruir-ne els fonaments ideològics, a fi de revertir-los i transcendir-los per mitjà de la transvaloració de tots els valors (Umwertung aller Werte). La major part dels escriptors, dels pensadors, dels artistes i dels erudits del seu temps hi són fulminats pels dards dels seus aforismes, que esdevenen per a nosaltres, lectors del segle XXI, esclats fulgurants en una època de creixent penombra intel·lectual.
Daybreak: Thoughts on the Prejudices of Morality
Friedrich Nietzsche
Daybreak marks the arrival of Nietzsche's 'mature' philosophy and is indispensable for an understanding of his critique of morality and 'revaluation of all values'. This volume presents the distinguished translation by R. J. Hollingdale, with a new introduction that argues for a dramatic change in Nietzsche's views from Human, All too Human to Daybreak, and shows how this change, in turn, presages the main themes of Nietzsche's later and better-known works such as On the Genealogy of Morality. The edition is completed by a chronology, notes and a guide to further reading
Der Antichrist: Versuch einer Kritik des Christentums
Friedrich Nietzsche
'Diese ewige Anklage des Christentums will ich an alle Wände schreiben, wo es nur Wände gibt ich habe Buchstaben, um auch Blinde sehend zu machen ...', so Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 1900) am Ende dieses Buches. Polemisch, streitbar und sprachgewaltig formuliert er in 62 Abschnitten die Kernthesen seiner fundamentalen Kritik des Christentums. Auf unnachahmliche Weise bündelt der große Philosoph hier die Argumente seiner früheren Werke zu einer letzten vehementen Abrechnung mit der mächtigsten Wurzel europäischer Kultur. 'Der Antichrist' erschien erstmals 1895, entstand jedoch schon 1888. Nur wenige Monate nach dessen Fertigstellung fiel Nietzsche in die geistige Umnachtung.
Dionysos Dithyrambosları
Friedrich Nietzsche
Arguably the most important philosopher of the 19th century, Nietzsche's earliest reputation was as much for his poetry as for his philosophical writings. This bilingual edition will please both the scholar and the general reader.
Ecce Homo
Friedrich Nietzsche
In late 1888, only weeks before his final collapse into madness, Nietzsche (1844-1900) set out to compose his autobiography, and Ecce Homo remains one of the most intriguing yet bizarre examples of the genre ever written. In this extraordinary work Nietzsche traces his life, work and development as a philosopher, examines the heroes he has identified with, struggled against and then overcome - Schopenhauer, Wagner, Socrates, Christ - and predicts the cataclysmic impact of his 'forthcoming revelation of all values'. Both self-celebrating and self-mocking, penetrating and strange, Ecce Homo gives the final, definitive expression to Nietzsche's main beliefs and is in every way his last testament.
Ecce homo. Come si diventa ciò che si è
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nell’autunno del 1888, nelle febbrili settimane che precedettero l’«euforia di Torino» e il successivo, definitivo silenzio, vennero scritte queste pagine che rimangono una delle vette stilistiche di Nietzsche e insieme un tentativo senza precedenti (e senza conseguenti) di capire se stessi non già sciogliendo gli enigmi, ma moltiplicandoli. Non è solo una vita, ma un’opera e una forma, in una parola: la singolarità di Nietzsche che qui viene illuminata in una sorta di messa in scena totale, dove i due poli di Nietzsche – l’uomo dionisiaco e il commediante – in un attimo abbagliante vengono a coincidere per rivelarci «come si diventa ciò che si è».
Ecce Homo: How One Becomes What One Is
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ecce Homo.
Ecco Homo
Friedrich Nietzsche
Ecce Homo, Alman duz yaziminin muhtesem bas yapitlarindan birisi, belki de simdiye dek hic gorulmemis tarzda kaleme alinmis bir otobiyografidir. 1888 yili sonlarinda, Nietzsche (1844-1900) tam delirmeden yalnizca birkac hafta once, kendisindeki trajedi felsefecisi girisiminin izlerini aramaya baslamisti.
El Anticristo
Friedrich Nietzsche
El Anticristo. Maldición sobre el cristianismo (Der Antichrist, Fluch auf das Christentum, 1888) es una de las últimas obras del filósofo alemán Friedrich Nietzsche.
El Anticristo, el manga
Friedrich Nietzsche
¿Locura fruto del hundimiento del último Nietzsche? ¿Vuelo deslumbrante del espíritu humano? El Anticristo es una crítica demoledora de los cimientos de la cultura occidental. Según el autor, el cristianismo es la causa de los males sociales, una moral de esclavos fruto del resentimiento de los débiles contra los fuertes; una moral, desarrollada por san Pablo tras la muerte de Jesús, que diviniza la nada, que niega y falsifica la realidad y construye un «mundo de puras ficciones».
Frente a los valores decadentes, Nietzsche reivindica la virtud del espíritu libre, pues la vida es «instinto de crecimiento, de acumulación de fuerzas, de poder». Para el autor, la fecha de finalización de la obra era toda una efeméride, el último día del cristianismo y el primero de una nueva época, el día de la «ley contra el cristianismo».
«La Iglesia creó miserias para eternizarse, vive de miserias […] ¿Desde hoy? ¡Transmutación de todos los valores! »
El ocaso de los ídolos
Friedrich Nietzsche
De El ocaso de los ídolos escribió Nietzsche: «Representa una excepción respecto a todos mis demás libros, porque no hay nada más sustancioso, más independiente, más demoledor y más malvado. Quien quiera hacerse una idea rápida de cómo estaba todo cabeza abajo antes de llegar yo, que empiece por este escrito. Lo que en el título se designa con el nombre de ídolo, no es más que lo que hasta ahora se ha venido llamando verdad. El ocaso de los ídolos significa, pues, que el fin de la vieja verdad está próximo».
El Viajero y su Sombra
Friedrich Nietzsche
Obra aparecida en 1880, cuando su autor ya estaba casi completamente ciego. Se trata de una serie de largos y por su contenido, elevados pensamientos presentados en forma de aforismos: trescientos cincuenta. Tratan de los más variados temas: de tipo moral, religioso, culturales, sociales, familiares, políticos... así como de reflexiones personales con una claridad de estilo y agudeza mental, inigualables. Nadie como Nietzsche supo desvelar los secretos ocultos del arte y su significado sin apartarse nunca de su tema central favorito: El ser humano.
God Is Dead. God Remains Dead. And We Have Killed Him. (Penguin Great Ideas)
Friedrich Nietzsche
Grounded in his famous notion that "God is dead," a selection from Nietzsche's most personal book, The Joyous Science
Nietzsche's devastating demolition of religion would have seismic consequences for future generations. With God dead, he envisages a brilliant future for one in which individuals would at last be responsible for their destinies.
Throughout history, some books have changed the world. They have transformed the way we see ourselves - and each other. They have inspired debate, dissent, war and revolution. They have enlightened, outraged, provoked and comforted. They have enriched lives--and upended them. Now Penguin brings you a new set of the acclaimed Great Ideas, a curated library of selections from the works of the great thinkers, pioneers, radicals and visionaries whose ideas shook civilization and helped make us who we are.
Humain, trop humain (French Edition)
Friedrich Nietzsche
On m’a assez souvent, et toujours avec une profonde surprise, déclaré qu’il y avait quelque chose de commun et de caractéristique dans tous mes ouvrages, depuis la Naissance de la tragédie jusqu’au dernier publié, le Prélude à une philosophie de l’avenir : ils contenaient tous, m’a-t-on dit, des lacs et des rets pour des oiseaux imprudents, et presque continuellement une provocation latente au renversement de toutes les estimations habituelles et de toutes les habitudes estimées. Quoi ? tout ne serait — qu’humain, trop humain ? C’est avec ce soupir qu’on sortait, dit-on, de mes ouvrages, non sans une sorte d’horreur et de méfiance même à l’égard le la morale ; bien plus, pas mal disposé et encouragé à se faire une fois le défenseur des pires choses : comme si peut-être elles n’étaient que les plus calomniées ? On a nommé mes livres une école de soupçon, plus encore, de mépris, heureusement aussi de courage, voire de témérité. En fait, je ne crois pas moi-même que personne ait jamais considéré le monde avec un soupçon aussi profond, et non seulement en avocat du diable à l’occasion, mais aussi bien, pour employer le langage théologique, en ennemi et en partie de Dieu : et qui sait deviner quelque chose des conséquences qu’enveloppe tout soupçon profond, quelque chose des frissons et des angoisses de la solitude, auxquels toute absolue différence de vue condamne celui qui en est affligé, comprendra aussi combien souvent j’ai, pour me reposer de moi-même, et quasi pour m’oublier moi-même momentanément, cherché à me mettre à couvert quelque part — dans quelque respect, ou hostilité, ou science, ou frivolité, ou sottise ; pourquoi aussi, lorsque je ne trouvais pas ce qu’il me fallait, j’ai dû me le procurer par artifice, tantôt par falsification, tantôt par invention ( — et qu’ont jamais fait d’autre les poètes ? et pourquoi serait donc fait tout l’art du monde ?). Or ce qu’il me fallait toujours de plus en plus nécessairement, pour ma guérison et mon rétablissement, c’était la croyance que je n’étais pas le seul à être de la sorte, à voir de la sorte, — un magique pressentiment de parenté et de similitude d’œil et de désir, un repos dans la confiance de l’amitié, une cécité à deux sans soupçon et sans point d’interrogation, une jouissance prise aux premiers plans, à la surface, au prochain, au voisin, à tout ce qui a couleur, peau et apparence. Peut-être qu’on pourrait souvent me reprocher à cet égard bien des espèces d’« artifice », bien du subtil faux-monnayage : par exemple que j’aie, en toute conscience et volonté, fermé les yeux à l’aveugle désir que Schopenhauer a pour la morale, à une époque où j’étais déjà assez clairvoyant touchant la morale ; item, que je me sois abusé moi-même sur l’incurable romantisme de Richard Wagner, comme s’il était un commencement, non une fin ; item sur les Grecs, item sur les Allemands et leur avenir — et peut-être y aurait-il encore toute une longue liste de semblables items ? — Mais supposé que tout cela fût vrai et me fût reproché à bon droit, que savez-vous, que pourriez-vous savoir de ce qu’il y a de ruses, d’instinct de conservation, de ra
Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits
Friedrich Nietzsche
This volume presents Nietzsche's remarkable collection of almost 1400 aphorisms in R. J. Hollingdale's distinguished translation, together with a new historical introduction by Richard Schacht. Subtitled "A Book for Free Spirits," Human, All Too Human marked for Nietzsche a new "positivism" and skepticism with which he challenged his previous metaphysical and psychological assumptions. Nearly all the themes of his later work are displayed here with characteristic perceptiveness and honesty--not to say suspicion and irony--in language of great brio. It remains one of the fundamental works for an understanding of his thought.
Jenseits von Gut und Böse: Vorspiel einer Philosophie der Zukunft
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche gilt heute als einer der wichtigsten Zeugen der Suche des modernen Menschen nach einem neuen Selbstverständnis. Trotz seiner kraftvollen Sprache, seines polemischscharfen, aphoristischen Stils und seiner glänzenden kulturkritischen Analysen erfährt sein Werk erst in der zweiten Hälfte des 20. Jahrhunderts eine ihm angemessene Aufnahme.
»Jenseits von Gut und Böse« dokumentiert Nietzsches Grundgedanken und -konzeptionen und vermittelt einen Eindruck seiner inhaltlichen und formalen Qualität und Sprengkraft.
La genealogía de la moral
Friedrich Nietzsche
"La genealogía de la moral" es la obra más sombría y cruel de Friedrich Nietzsche. Su primer tratado se ocupa de la contraposición entre los conceptos de “bueno” y “malo”, así como de la posterior transformación de su significado por obra de la interpretación judeo-cristiana. El segundo tratado analiza la mala conciencia, cuya causa en épocas primitivas era la culpa entendida no en el sentido de responsabilidad moral, sino como equivalente a deuda material. La última parte, que anuncia el nuevo ideal del superhombre, analiza el significado del ascetismo.
Lahirnya Tragedi
Friedrich Nietzsche
A compelling argument for the necessity for art in life, Nietzsche's first book is fuelled by his enthusiasms for Greek tragedy, for the philosophy of Schopenhauer and for the music of Wagner, to whom this work was dedicated. Nietzsche outlined a distinction between its two central forces: the Apolline, representing beauty and order, and the Dionysiac, a primal or ecstatic reaction to the sublime. He believed the combination of these states produced the highest forms of music and tragic drama, which not only reveal the truth about suffering in life, but also provide a consolation for it. Impassioned and exhilarating in its conviction, The Birth of Tragedy has become a key text in European culture and in literary criticism.
La Naissance de la tragédie
Friedrich Nietzsche
"Nous aurons fait en esthétique un grand pas lorsque nous serons parvenus non seulement à la compréhension logique mais à l'immédiate certitude intuitive que l'entier développement de l'art est lié à la dualité de l'apollinien et du dionysiaque. Ces noms, nous les empruntons aux Grecs, lesquels ont donné à entendre le sens profond et la doctrine secrète de leur intuition esthétique dans les figures incisives et nettes de leur panthéon. C'est à leurs deux divinités de l'art, Apollon et Dionysos, que se rattache la connaissance que nous pouvons avoir, dans le monde grec, d'une formidable opposition, quant à l'origine et quant au but, entre l'art plastique - l'art apollinien - et l'art non plastique qui est celui de Dionysos. Ces deux impulsions si différentes marchent de front, mais la plupart du temps en conflit ouvert [...] jusqu'à ce qu'enfin, par un geste métaphysique miraculeux de la "volonté" hellénique, elles apparaissent accouplées l'une à l'autre et, dans cet accouplement, en viennent à engendrer l'oeuvre d'art à la fois dionysiaque et apollinienne, la tragédie attique."Friedrich Nietzsche.
L'Anticristo
Friedrich Nietzsche
L’Anticristo è forse l’opera in cui la forza del pensiero di Nietzsche si incarna con il massimo vigore e va ad attaccare l’idea di Dio e le credenze religiose con tutta la sua potenza.
Il grande filosofo ribalta la visione del mondo tradizionale con impeto rivoluzionario: la morale è menzogna, la virtù è truffa. Il rifiuto della religione e dei “valori” è essenziale e ineludibile per ogni vera filosofia. La base di partenza è lo stretto legame che mette in relazione morale e nichilismo. Tale connessione è estranea al senso comune, per il quale da sempre i valori della pietà, della compassione e della religione sono il contrario del nichilismo.
Man Alone with Himself
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary thinkers in Western philosophy. Here he sets out his subversive views in a series of aphorisms on subjects ranging from art to arrogance, boredom to passion, science to vanity, rejecting conventional notions of morality to celebrate the individual's 'will to power'.
Más allá del bien y del mal
Friedrich Nietzsche
Más allá del bien y del mal representa una obra de la plena y más lúcida madurez intelectual de Friedrich Nietzsche, así como una de las cumbres más altas de la filosofía de su tiempo. Con voz potente y vigorosa, el gran pensador analiza el vacío moral de sus colegas, la ausencia de criterio crítico de los que se suponían "filósofos de la moral" y su inerte aceptación de los supuestos venidos del judeocristianismo. Su intención sera la de destruir, con la mejor argumentación posible, el judeocristianismo como pilar de la cultura occidental y, por ende, la fuente de la que han surgido todos y cada uno de los criterios morales, filosóficos, dogmáticos, religiosos, metafísicos, sociales, culturales y políticos que conformaban la imagen del mundo de su época y, en buena medida, también de la nuestra.
On the Advantage and Disadvantage of History for Life (Hackett Classics)
Friedrich Nietzsche
(Part II of Thoughts Out of Season)
On the Genealogy of Morality
Friedrich Nietzsche
This new edition is the product of a collaboration between a Germanist and a philosopher who is also a Nietzsche scholar. The translation strives not only to communicate a sense of Nietzsche’s style but also to convey his meaning accurately―and thus to be an important advance on previous translations of this work. A superb set of notes ensures that Clark and Swensen's Genealogy will become the new edition of choice for classroom use.
On the Genealogy of Morality & Other Writings (History of Political Thought)
Friedrich Nietzsche
A Genealogy of Morality is Nietzsche's most important work on morality. A polemical contribution to moral and political theory, it traces the history of concepts such as guilt, responsibility, and justice, offering insight into Nietzsche's assessment of modern times as the epoch of nihilism. This volume contains new translations of the Genealogy and The Greek State and sections from other of Nietzsche's work to which he refers within it (Human All Too Human, Daybreak, The Joyful Science, and Beyond Good and Evil).
On the Genealogy of Morals
Friedrich Nietzsche
On the Genealogy of Morals (1887) is a book about the history of ethics and about interpretation. Nietzsche rewrites the former as a history of cruelty, exposing the central values of the Judaeo-Christian and liberal traditions - compassion, equality, justice - as the product of a brutal process of conditioning designed to domesticate the animal vitality of earlier cultures. The result is a book which raises profoundly disquieting issues about the violence of both ethics and interpretation. Nietzsche questions moral certainties by showing that religion and science have no claim to absolute truth, before turning on his own arguments in order to call their very presuppositions into question. The Genealogy is the most sustained of Nietzsche's later works and offers one of the fullest expressions of his characteristic concerns. This edition places his ideas within the cultural context of his own time and stresses the relevance of his work for a contemporary audience.
On the Genealogy of Morals / Ecce Homo
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Genealogy of Morals consists of three essays exploring morality and its origins where Nietzsche makes ample use of his training as a philologist. These works contain Nietzsche's most thorough and clear expression of his psychological philosophy. This edition includes Ecce Homo, Nietzsche's review of his life and works, with the exception of The Antichrist. These two books are compiled, translated and annotated by renowned Nietzsche scholar Walter Kaufmann.
On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense
Friedrich Nietzsche
"On Truth and Lie in an Extra-Moral Sense") is an (initially) unpublished work of Friedrich Nietzsche written in 1873, one year after The Birth of Tragedy. It deals largely with epistemological questions of truth and language, including the formation of concepts. Every word immediately becomes a concept, inasmuch as it is not intended to serve as a reminder of the unique and wholly individualized original experience to which it owes its birth, but must at the same time fit innumerable, more or less similar cases—which means, strictly speaking, never equal—in other words, a lot of unequal cases. Every concept originates through our equating what is unequal. According to Paul F. Glenn, Nietzsche is arguing that "concepts are metaphors which do not correspond to reality." Although all concepts are human inventions (created by common agreement to facilitate ease of communication), human beings forget this fact after inventing them, and come to believe that they are "true" and do correspond to reality. Thus Nietzsche argues that "truth" is actually: A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms—in short, a sum of human relations which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins. These ideas about truth and its relation to human language have been particularly influential among postmodern theorists, and "On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense" is one of the works most responsible for Nietzsche's reputation (albeit a contentious one) as "the godfather of postmodernism."
On Truth and Untruth: Selected Writings (The Resistance Library)
Friedrich Nietzsche
“We continue to live within the intellectual shadow cast by Nietzsche.”— New York Times Book Review Reissued for the age of "fake news," On Truth and Untruth charts Nietzsche’s evolving thinking on truth, which has exerted a powerful influence over modern and contemporary thought. This original collection features the complete text of the celebrated early essay “On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense” (”a keystone in Nietzsche’s thought”— Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy ), as well as selections from the great philosopher’s entire career, including key passages from The Gay Science , Beyond Good and Evil , On the Genealogy of Morals , The Will to Power , Twilight of the Idols , and The Antichrist . In times of crisis, the great works of philosophy help us make sense of the world. The Harper Perennial Resistance Library is a special five-book series highlighting short classic works of independent thought that illuminate the nature of truth, humanity's dangerous attraction to authoritarianism, the influence of media and mass communication, and the philosophy of resistance—all critical in understanding today's politically charged world.
Philosophy in the Tragic Age of the Greeks
Friedrich Nietzsche
For Nietzsche the Age of Greek Tragedy was indeed a tragic age. He saw in it the rise and climax of values so dear to him that their subsequent drop into catastrophe (in the person of Socrates - Plato) was clearly foreshadowed as though these were events taking place in the theater.
And so in this work, unpublished in his own day but written at the same time that his The Birth of Tragedy had so outraged the German professorate as to imperil his own academic career, his most deeply felt task was one of education. He wanted to present the culture of the Greeks as a paradigm to his young German contemporaries who might thus be persuaded to work toward a state of culture of their own; a state where Nietzsche found sorely missing.

Schopenhauer as Educator
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a German philosopher. His writing included critiques of religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy and science, using a distinctive style and displaying a fondness for aphorism. Nietzsche’s influence remains substantial within and beyond philosophy, notably in existentialism and postmodernism. He began his career as a philologist before turning to philosophy. At the age of 24 he became Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel, but resigned in 1879 due to health problems, which would plague him for most of his life. In 1889 he exhibited symptoms of serious mental illness, living out his remaining years in the care of his mother and sister until his death in 1900. His works include From my Life (1858), On Music (1858), Napoleon III as a President (1862), Free Willand Fate (1862), My Life (1864), The Birth of Tragedy (1872), Richard Wagner in Bayreuth (1876), Human, All-Too-Human (1878), Beyond Good and Evil (1886), The Antichrist (1888) and Ecce Homo (1888).
Slik talte Zarathustra
Friedrich Nietzsche
Slik talte Zarathustra er Nietzsches mest kjente bok. Og det er den han selv mente var den viktigste. Gjennom karakteren og profeten Zarathustra gir Nietzsche leseren et fascinerende filosofisk manifest, han taler til sine disipler i en stil som på mange måter minner om Bibelen og Platons dialoger.
Dette er en bok med myriader av ideer, et voldsomt tankegods og Nietzsches stadig gjentatte tema: den evige gjenkomst og viljen til makt. Alt nedskrevet i poetisk prosa.
Slik talte Zarathustra er den boken hvor Nietzsche introduserer begrepet «overmennesket» – et uttrykk for Nietzsches tro på menneskets iboende metafysiske kraft, et menneske som er forpliktet til å skape seg sin egen mening, sin egen sannhet, sin egen verden.

Sobre Verdade E Mentira
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nesta obra, Nietzsche investiga o alcance efetivo da linguagem, sobre a qual se assenta todo o conhecimento da civilização ocidental. Para ele, a confiança do homem moderno no poder das palavras se funda no esquecimento de algo que era evidente quando as criou: elas são apenas uma metáfora para as coisas e jamais poderiam encarnar o seu significado. Esta obra foi ditada pelo autor a um amigo no verão de 1873, mas só foi publicada após a sua morte. A presente edição contém ainda uma seleta oportuna de Fragmentos póstumos.
Sull'avvenire delle nostre scuole
Friedrich Nietzsche
Queste conferenze, scritte dal ventisettenne Nietzsche nel 1872, quando era ancora professore a Basilea, contengono alcune delle affermazioni più radicali e rivoluzionarie contro il sistema della cultura moderna che mai siano state enunciate. Nel suo tentativo di «indovinare l’avvenire» fondandosi, «come un augure, sulle viscere del passato», Nietzsche è riuscito qui a individuare il nesso fra l’educazione scolastica, anche nelle sue zone più apparentemente disinteressate, e l’utilizzazione della forza-lavoro intellettuale da parte della società e ai fini della società stessa, che sono poi quelli di «allevarsi quanto prima è possibile utili impiegati, e assicurarsi della loro incondizionata arrendevolezza». Di fronte a tale brutale intervento, ogni cultura che non voglia identificarsi con l’ordine costituito dovrà agire contro di esso. Dietro la spinta verso una diffusione sempre maggiore della cultura, in cui riconosceva uno dei «dogmi preferiti dall’economia politica di questa nostra epoca», Nietzsche vide dunque un proposito di oppressione e di sfruttamento, insomma l’ombra stessa dell’«economia politica» nel suo senso più generale. Apparirà perciò giustificato leggere questo testo anche come una preveggente analisi dell’industria culturale – e lo storicismo, qui attaccato frontalmente come il maligno incanto che riesce a «paralizzare» ogni impulso a mettere la cultura in immediato contatto con «l’ambiguità dell’esistenza», si rivelerà essere appunto l’agente di un enorme e nefasto processo sociale tuttora in corso.
The Anti-Christ
Friedrich Nietzsche
The reference to the Antichrist is not intended to refer to the biblical Antichrist but is rather an attack on the "slave morality" and apathy of Western Christianity. Nietzsche's basic claim is that Christianity is a poisoner of western culture and perversion of the words of and practice of Jesus. Throughout the text, Nietzsche is very critical of institutionalized religion and its priest class, from which he himself was descended. The majority of the book is a systematic attack upon the interpretations of Christ's words by St. Paul and those who followed him. Nietzsche claimed in the Foreword to have written the book for a very limited readership. In order to understand the book, he asserted that the reader "... must be honest in intellectual matters to the point of hardness to so much as endure my seriousness, my passion." The reader should be above politics and nationalism. Also, the usefulness or harmfulness of truth should not be a concern. Characteristics such as "Strength which prefers questions for which no one today is sufficiently daring; courage for the forbidden" are also needed. He disdained all other readers.
The Birth of Tragedy
Friedrich Nietzsche
A compelling argument for the necessity for art in life, Nietzsche's first book is fuelled by his enthusiasms for Greek tragedy, for the philosophy of Schopenhauer and for the music of Wagner, to whom this work was dedicated. Nietzsche outlined a distinction between its two central forces: the Apolline, representing beauty and order, and the Dionysiac, a primal or ecstatic reaction to the sublime. He believed the combination of these states produced the highest forms of music and tragic drama, which not only reveal the truth about suffering in life, but also provide a consolation for it. Impassioned and exhilarating in its conviction, The Birth of Tragedy has become a key text in European culture and in literary criticism.
The Birth of Tragedy and Other Writings
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Birth of Tragedy is one of the seminal philosophical works of the modern period. The theories developed in this relatively short text have had a profound influence on the philosophy, literature, music and politics of the twentieth century. This edition presents a new translation by Ronald Speirs and an introduction by Raymond Geuss that sets the work in its historical and philosophical context. The volume also includes two essays on related topics that Nietzsche wrote during the same period.
The Birth of Tragedy and The Genealogy of Morals
Friedrich Nietzsche
Skillful, sophisticated translations of two of Nietzsche's essential works about the conflict between the moral and aesthetic approaches to life, the impact of Christianity on human values, the meaning of science, the contrast between the Apollonian and Dionysian spirits, and other themes central to his thinking.
The Birth of Tragedy (1872) was Nietzsche's first book, The Geneology of Morals (1887) one of his last. Though they span the career of this controversial genius, both address the problems such as the conflict between the moral versus aesthetic approaches to life, the effect of Christianity on human values, the meaning of science, and the famous dichotomy between the Apollonian and Dionysian spirits, among many themes which Nietzsche struggled throughout his tortured life.
The Birth of Tragedy / The Case of Wagner
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Birth of Tragedy (1872) was Nietzsche's 1st book. Its youthful faults were exposed by him in the brilliant 'Attempt at a Self-Criticism' which he added to the new edition of 1886. But the book, whatever its excesses, remains one of the most relevant statements on tragedy ever penned. It exploded the conception of Greek culture that was prevalent down thru the Victorian era. It sounded themes developed in the 20th century by classicists, existentialists, psychoanalysts & others. The Case of Wagner (1888) was one his last books & his wittiest. In attitude & style it's diametrically opposed to The Birth of Tragedy. Both works transcend their ostensible subjects & deal with art & culture, as well as the problems of the modern age generally. Each book in itself gives us an inadequate idea of its author; together, they furnish a striking image of Nietzsche's thought. The distinguished new translations by Walter Kaufmann superbly reflect in English Nietzsche's idiom & the vitality of his style. Kaufmann has also furnished running footnote commentaries, relevant passages from Nietzsche's correspondence, a bibliography, &, for the 1st time in any edition, an extensive index to each book.

The Gay Science
Friedrich Nietzsche
Nietzsche wrote The Gay Science, which he later described as "perhaps my most personal book," when he was at the height of his intellectual powers, and the reader will find it an extensive and sophisticated treatment of the philosophical themes and views most central to Nietzsche's own thought and most influential on later thinkers. This volume presents the work in a new translation by Josefine Nauckhoff, with an introduction by Bernard Williams that elucidates the work's main themes and discusses their continuing importance.
The Gay Science: With a Prelude in Rhymes and an Appendix of Songs
Friedrich Nietzsche
"[This book] mirrors all of Nietzsche's thought and could be related in hundreds of ways to his other books, his notes, and his letters. And yet it is complete in itself. For it is a work of art." —Walter Kaufmann in the Introduction
Nietzsche called The Gay Science "the most personal of all my books." It was here that he first proclaimed the death of God—to which a large part of the book is devoted—and his doctrine of the eternal recurrence.
Walter Kaufmann's commentary, with its many quotations from previously untranslated letters, brings to life Nietzsche as a human being and illuminates his philosophy. The book contains some of Nietzsche's most sustained discussions of art and morality, knowledge and truth, the intellectual conscience and the origin of logic.
Most of the book was written just before Thus Spoke Zarathustra, the last part five years later, after Beyond Good and Evil. We encounter Zarathustra in these pages as well as many of Nietzsche's most interesting philosophical ideas and the largest collection of his own poetry that he himself ever published.
Walter Kaufmann's English versions of Nietzsche represent one of the major translation enterprises of our time. He is the first philosopher to have translated Nietzsche's major works, and never before has a single translator given us so much of Nietzsche.
The Genealogy of Morals
Friedrich Nietzsche
Written in response to a book on the origins of morality by his erstwhile friend Paul Rée, the three essays comprising The Genealogy of Morals — all three advancing the critique of Christian morality set forth in Beyond Good and Evil — are among Nietzsche's most sustained and cohesive work.
In the first essay — starting from a linguistic analysis of words such as "good," "bad," and "evil" — Nietzsche sets up a contrast between what he calls "master" morality and "slave" morality and shows how strength and action have often been replaced by passivity and nihilism. The next essay, looking into the origins of guilt and punishment, shows how the concept of justice was born — and how internalization of this concept led to the development of what people called "the soul." In the third essay, Nietzsche dissects the meaning of ascetic ideals.
It is not Nietzsche's intention to reject ascetic ideals, "slave" morality, or internalized values out of hand; his main concern is to show that culture and morality, rather than being eternal verities, are human-made. Whether or not you agree with all of his conclusions, his writing is of such clarity and brilliance that you will find reading The Genealogy of Morals nothing short of exhilarating.
The Joyous Science (Penguin Classics)
Friedrich Nietzsche
The Joyous Science is a liberating voyage of discovery as Nietzsche's realization that 'God is dead' and his critique of morality, the arts and modernity give way to an exhilarating doctrine of self-emancipation and the concept of eternal recurrence. Here is Nietzsche at his most personal and affirmative; in his words, this is a book of 'exuberance, restlessness, contrariety and April showers'. With its unique voice and style, its playful combination of poetry and prose, and its invigorating quest for self-emancipation, The Joyous Science is a literary tour de force and quite possibly Nietzsche's best book.
The Portable Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsche
The works of Friedrich Nietzsche have fascinated readers around the world ever since the publication of his first book more than a hundred years ago. As Walter Kaufmann, one of the world's leading authorities on Nietzsche, notes in his introduction, "Few writers in any age were so full of ideas," and few writers have been so consistently misinterpreted. The Portable Nietzsche includes Kaufmann's definitive translations of the complete and unabridged texts of Nietzsche's four major works: Twilight of the Idols, The Antichrist, Nietzsche Contra Wagner and Thus Spoke Zarathustra. In addition, Kaufmann brings together selections from his other books, notes, and letters, to give a full picture of Nietzsche's development, versatility, and inexhaustibly.
"In this volume, one may very conveniently have a rich review of one of the most sensitive, passionate, and misunderstood writers in Western, or any, literature." -Newsweek
The Will to Power
Friedrich Nietzsche
New to Penguin Classics, The Will to Power contains some of Nietzsche's most fascinating and combative writings on nihilism, metaphysics and the future of Europe.
Assembled by Nietzsche's sister after his death, The Will to Power is a collection of the philosopher's reflections and theories taken from his unpublished notebooks. Covering topics such as nihilism, Christianity, morality and the famous 'will to power', the book was controversially presented as Nietzsche's all-but-completed magnum opus containing his philosophical system. Including some of his most interesting metaphysical and epistemological thoughts, as well as some of his most disturbing ethical and political comments, the book would prove to have a significant influence on Nietzsche's contentious reception in the twentieth century.
Thus Spoke Zarathustra
Friedrich Nietzsche
Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a foundational work of Western literature and is widely considered to be Friedrich Nietzsche’s masterpiece. It includes the German philosopher’s famous discussion of the phrase ‘God is dead’ as well as his concept of the Superman. Nietzsche delineates his Will to Power theory and devotes pages to critiquing Christian thinking, in particular Christianity’s definition of good and evil.
Twilight of the Idols
Friedrich Nietzsche
Twilight of the Idols presents a vivid, compressed overview of many of Nietzsche’s mature ideas, including his attack on Plato’s Socrates and on the Platonic legacy in Western philosophy and culture. Polt provides a trustworthy rendering of Nietzsche’s text in contemporary American English, complete with notes prepared by the translator and Tracy Strong. An authoritative Introduction by Strong makes this an outstanding edition.
Twilight of the Idols and Anti-Christ
Friedrich Nietzsche
Alternate cover edition for 9780140445145
In 1888, the last sane year of his life Nietzsche produced these two brief but devastating books.
Twilight of the Idols, 'a grand declaration of war' on all the prevalent ideas of his time, offers a lightning tour of his whole philosophy. It also prepares the way for The Anti-Christ, a final assault on institutional Christianity. Yet although Nietzsche makes a compelling case for the 'Dionysian' artist and celebrates magnificently two of his great heroes, Goethe and Cesare Borgia, he also gives a moving, almost ecstatic portrait of his only worthy opponent: Christ. Both works show Nietsche lashing out at self-deception, astounded at how often morality is based on vengefulness and resentment. Both combine utterly unfair attacks on individuals with amazingly acute surveys of the whole contemporary cultural scene. Both reveal a profound understanding of human mean-spiritedness which still cannot destroy the underlying optimism of Nietzsche, the supreme affirmer among the great philosophers.

Unfashionable Observations
Friedrich Nietzsche
This new translation is the first to be published in a twenty-volume English-language edition of The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche, the first complete, critical, and annotated translation of all of Nietzsche's work. The Stanford edition is based on the Colli-Montinari edition, which has received universal praise: "It has revolutionized our understanding of one of the greatest German thinkers"; "Scholars can be confident for the first time of having a trustworthy text."Under the title Unzeitgemässe Betrachtungen, Nietzsche collected four essays published separately between 1873 and 1876: "David Strauss the Confessor and the Writer," "On the Utility and Liability of History for Life," "Schopenhauer as Educator," and "Richard Wagner in Bayreuth." The title, newly translated as Unfashionable Observations, spells out the common impulse linking these essays: Nietzsche's inimical attitude toward his "time," understood broadly as all the mainstream and popular movements that constituted contemporary European, but especially German, "culture" in the wake of the Prussian military victory over the French in 1871.The Unfashionable Observations are foundational works for Nietzsche's entire philosophy, prefiguring both his characteristic philosophical style and many of the major ideas he would develop in his later writings. This is the first English translation to include Nietzsche's variants to the published text.

Thus Nietzsche argues that "truth" is actually: A mobile army of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms—in short, a sum of human relations which have been enhanced, transposed, and embellished poetically and rhetorically, and which after long use seem firm, canonical, and obligatory to a people: truths are illusions about which one has forgotten that this is what they are; metaphors which are worn out and without sensuous power; coins which have lost their pictures and now matter only as metal, no longer as coins. These ideas about truth and its relation to human language have been particularly influential among postmodern theorists, and "On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense" is one of the works most responsible for Nietzsche's reputation (albeit a contentious one) as "the godfather of postmodernism."

Zərdüşt belə deyirdi
Friedrich Nietzsche
Bu əsər dünya fəlsəfi fikrinin zehinlərdə dərin iz buraxan on kitabından biri sayılır. Dahi mütəfəkkir Fridrix Nitsşenin qədim şərq müdriki Zərdüştün həyatına və düşüncələrinə həsr olunmuş əsəri həyat və qüdrətli zəka qəhrəmanları haqqında ən kədərli epopeyalardan biridir. Burada poetik əzəmət, dərin fikir, mənalı rəmz, hər cür tiranlıq və saxtakarlığın amansız ifşası çox qəribə şəkildə bir-biri ilə çulğalanmışdır.
Nitşe özü bu əsər barədə belə yazır: "Bu ya poeziya, ya da beşinci İncil, ya da nəsə hələ adı olmayan bir şeydir; bu mənim əsərlərimin ən ciddisi, ən uğurlusudur".
Zur Genealogie der Moral
Friedrich Nietzsche
Friedrich Nietzsches brillante Streitschrift 'Zur Genealogie der Moral' (1887) zählt zu den einflussreichsten seiner Werke: Von Sigmund Freud bis Michel Foucault reicht die Riege der großen Denker, die sich von ihr faszinieren und anregen ließen. Ebenso wortgewaltig wie gedanklich präzise macht Nietzsche sich hier auf die Suche nach der Herkunft unserer moralischen Vorurteile, nach dem Ursprung jenes 'Gut und Böse', das bis heute unser privates, soziales, politisches Handeln entscheidend bestimmt. Seine Grundhaltung dabei ist stets emanzipatorisch denn wer seine Herkunft verkennt, kann keine Zukunft gestalten.
هكذا تكلم زرادشت
Friedrich Nietzsche
أكثر من مائة سنة مرّت على ما كتبه هذا الفيلسوف الذي يسمّي نفسه “عبوة ديناميت”. واليوم، ونحن في بداية القرن الواحد والعشرين مازالت هذه المواجهة الصريحة والصادقة تحرج وتربك الكثيرين، لأن نيتشه الذي كان يعرف أنه لا يكتب لعصره آنذاك يبدو كما لو أنه ينهض من سباته، وذلك منذ النصف الثاني من القرن المنصرم، بل لنقل أن آخر القرن العشرين، وهو يتعثر في ركام الأفكار والقيم الإنسانية التي بعثرتها الحربان العالميتان قد اكتشفت نيتشه من جديد. وها هو ذلك الحلم الذي راوده مثل يتوبيا: أن يشهد العالم في يوم ما اهتماماً بفكره وأن تنشأ كراسي محاضرات جامعية حول زرادشت، ها هو يتحقق على نطاق واسع، في فرنسا وأمريكا أولاً ثم في ألمانيا وهولندا واليابان، وربما في البلاد العربية في القرن القادم، لم لا؟
