About the author
Friedrich Nietzsche
4,444 books25.9k followersFriedrich 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 She edited his unpublished writings to fit her German ultranationalist ideology, often contradicting or obfuscating Nietzsche's stated opinions, which were explicitly opposed to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.

Шукати варто людей, розмова з якими коштував би гарної книги, і книг, читання яких варте було б розмови з філософами, - здається, саме так говорять? Тоді з цією книгою можна вбити двох зайців одразу (жартую).
Інколи я чітко розумію, що ті книги, які вплинули на мене, були прочитані у потрібний момент. Так було з Ніцше, бо я бралася його читати разів три, але лише у певний момент життя за збігом обставин була дещо вражена його умінням розкласти ситуацію на атоми, прискіпливо розглянути усе, продумувати дрібниці, педантичністю, скрупульозністю, ну і що там гріха таїти – занудністю (уже не жартую).
Бо усе те, що схоже на чистої води занудство – найстрашніший обман, який взагалі трапляється з людиною. Це або ще нудніше, аніж видалося на перший погляд, або ж прекрасно. Ніцше з цією книгою десь посередині.

An amazing, outstanding and one that is the most precios book of its kind. Definitely this book is not for everyone. Anyone who comes to see and appreciate the seed of truth through one’s own experience can no longer be the same about the world around them as well as inside them.
