Twilight of the Idols

There's a lot of stuff going on with this one. The German editions I checked (which are actually the original version as Nietzsche is from that country) have an Italian(?) summary. Most editions I checked show the English title as the Original title, which I think is incorrect because the author wrote this in German. I need a more experienced librarian to attack this issue. On German editions, the description should be in German. On all editions, the Original title should be reflected in German. English editions are missing the translator information. There are some that are in Arabic(?) and might require the help of a translator.

I'd be happy to assist with the German parts but I think fixing this goes far beyond my experience.
Thank you.

I have change the Original title to the German one. The default description was in Italian; I changed it to an English one, since GR is an English language based site. I have not found a good German description yet. If you have one you can link I will add it to the German editions.

I am working on the translators.

Someone else will have to look at the Arabic/Persian ones, as this is outside my language skills. :)

This is the description used at www.amazon.de. I think this might be as good as it's gonna get. I'm happy with a default English description. :)
Thanks for tackling this one.

»Kein Ding gerät, an dem nicht der Übermut seinen Teil hat. Das Zuviel an Kraft erst ist der Beweis von Kraft«, postuliert Nietzsche im Vorwort seiner »Götzen-Dämmerung«. Und in der Tat: Kraftvoll und ohne falsche Rücksicht auf ein in seinen Augen überkommenes, in Traditionen gefangenes Denken schwingt der sprachgewaltige Philosoph den Hammer. Er selbst bezeichnete die 1889 erschienene »Götzen-Dämmerung« als »vollkommene Gesamteinführung« in seine Philosophie. Mit pointierter Schärfe und bewusstem Pathos arbeitet Nietzsche hier an seinen Gedanken zur »Umwertung aller Werte« und zum »Willen zur Macht«, bevor ihn kurze Zeit später die geistige Umnachtung niederringt.

Okay, I added what I could.

Many of the Kindle editions gave me '404' when I tried to look them up on Amazon. There wasn't much I could do with those. :S

Thanks so much for taking this on! :)

You may be looking at the wrong Amazon. On the book edit page, check the source. It will tell you which Amazon, plus it is a link.
