Produktbeschreibung
The philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche turned the generally accepted values of modern, Western society upside down--religious, spiritual, moral, ethical, and Christian presumptions were all questioned, tested, and cast aside as, ultimately, useless to man and his ascension to a higher purpose: a more self-actualized awareness of the universe, and the meaning of his birth and ultimate demise. Thi small, easily intellectually digestible volume will serve as a starting point for the sincere scholar, who may seek out the "road less traveled" by diving into the mental and spiritual depths of a man long considered to be one of the most influential intellects of the ages. About the author--Friedrich Nietzsche was born on October 14th, near Leipzig, Germany. He ascended the ranks of academia early, becoming a professor at the age of twenty-four, with a keen interest in philosophy, as well as philology. His friendship with composer Richard Wagner ended in 1876, with Nietzsche writing a scathing critique of the composer and his spiritual influence. In short order, a succession of major philosophic works followed, including, "The Birth of Tragedy," "Thus Spake Zarathustra," "Twilight of the Idols," and "Human, All Too Human. " He died in an asylum in 1900. He was 55 years old.
Autorenporträt
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher, classical scholar, and cultural critic, known for his profound influence on modern thought. Born on October 15, 1844, in R cken, Germany, Nietzsche initially pursued a career as a classical philologist before transitioning to philosophy. His works challenged traditional beliefs, and his critiques of culture, religion, and morality made him one of the most influential philosophers of the 19th century. Nietzsche's writings explored complex concepts such as the "will to power," the " bermensch," and the idea of the eternal recurrence. His works, including "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" and "Beyond Good and Evil," questioned the foundations of Western philosophy and introduced ideas that would later shape existentialism and postmodernism. Nietzsche s intellectual journey was influenced by figures like Arthur Schopenhauer and Fyodor Dostoevsky. He faced personal struggles throughout his life, including mental illness, which led to his decline in health. He passed away on August 25, 1900, in Weimar, Germany, at the age of 55. Nietzsche s parents were Carl Ludwig Nietzsche and Franziska Oehler, and he had a brother, Ludwig Joseph Nietzsche, and a sister, Elisabeth F rster-Nietzsche. His groundbreaking ideas continue to resonate in contemporary philosophy and culture.
