Bücher von Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Die Geburt der Tragödie: Auf etwa 100 Buchseiten entwickelt der Jungwissenschaftler aus seinen Studien des Griechentums, seiner Liebe zur Musik und der Wertschätzung Schopenhauers und Wagners sein kulturelles Weltbild. Er präsentiert seine Theorien von der Entstehung und dem Niedergang der griechischen Tragödie und darüber hinaus allgemeine kulturphilosophische und ästhetische Betrachtungen, die auch im 20. Jahrhundert rezipiert wurden.

One of the most controversial and inflammatory philosophers in western civilization, Friedrich Nietzsche summarized his extraordinary ideas in "The Twilight of the Idols." Appropriately subtitled "How One Philosophizes with a Hammer," this work is a polemic on many of the ideas of his day, especially what he describes as the 'The Problem of Socrates' and 'The Four Great Errors.' Through the process of self-deception Nietzsche discusses the tendency of man to confuse cause and effect. By examining the concepts of accountability and free will, as they relate to vice and morality, Nietzsche attacks the prevalent philosophical systems of his time. Written in just over a week, "The Twilight of the Idols," prepares readers for the principles addressed in "The Anti-Christ." Also written in 1888, it expands on Nietzsche's blatant disagreements with institutional Christianity. Written to deliberately provoke the reader, Nietzsche's philosophy is perhaps most shocking not in its frank negativity concerning nearly all aspects of humanity, but in the profound depth of its understanding of human nature and the optimism which subtly affirms the capabilities and possibilities of mankind. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper and is translated by Thomas Common with introductions by Willard Huntington Wright.

In this final volume of the collected writings of Friedrich Nietzsche the persona and condition of humanity is closely examined. Going through history and ethics, Nietzsche tries to pull together a coherent history and finalized in the collected of Thoughts out of Season, he finalizes the philosophical thinking that has made Nietzsche such a profound thinker in our history.

The most well-known of Nietzsche's works, Thus Spake Zarathustra spells out a philosophy where God is dead and is replaced by the "Superman", a human of incredible power that rules over humanity. A series of discourses also explains how life should be lived out and what things should be important in all our lives. This work, although controversial, has impacted our society in many ways, often without us even knowing it.

Nietzsche iskee Wagneriin kuin tuhat salamaa! Mutta vuonna 1888 ilmestynyt Wagnerin tapaus ei tee selvää jälkeä ainoastaan suuresta säveltäjästä, vaan samalla koko modernista ajasta, jonka »opettavaisimpana tapauksena» Nietzsche Wagneria piti. Hurja vivisektio paljastaa armottomasti modernin sielun rappeutuneet sisuskalut. Tämän kirjan lähellä on tulenteko kielletty: räjähdysvaara!Nietzsche contra Wagner on traagisen filosofin viimeinen sotahuuto. Vuoden 1888 lopulla Nietzsche valikoi, kokosi ja muokkasi varhaisemmista kirjoituksistaan tämän pikku kirjasen, jonka sanoma on selvä: Nietzsche ja Wagner ovat antipodeja.

Laying out the process of Greek based education and philosophy, this volume collects together the major works of Nietzsche that give his thoughts on the Greek philosophical systems as well as how they should be instituted into our societies. Although he continues in his harsh and dominant styles of thought, the teaching laid out here continues to affect our communities today just as they did hundreds of years ago when first published.
