Summary:
Born and raised in a small town in Prussia,Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche(1844-1900) began his career in philology (the study of language), and served as a professor at the University of Basel. In 1879, he was forced to leave due to health issues, which afflicted him throughout his life. Supported by his university pension and aided by friends, he spent the next decade as an independent author, writing the books for which he would become famous, includingThus Spake Zarathustra,Beyond Good and Evil, andOn the Genealogy of Morals. In 1889, at the age of 44, Nietzsche had a mental breakdown from which he never recovered, dying in 1900. Yet in just ten years, he produced a body of work that would mark him as one of the most influential philosophers of all time.
InSimply Nietzsche, ProfessorPeter Kailtraces the development of Nietzsches thought through the various phases of his life. Emphasizing the philosophers critique of modern morality and his revolutionary conception of the self, he also discusses key motifs of Nietzsches thought, such as the death of God, the will to power, and the eternal recurrence.
Even those who have never read Nietzsche or are unsure of why hes important have heard his name. With Prof. Kail as a guide,Simply Nietzscheprovides an unparalleled and accessible introduction to the life and ideas of this most remarkable thinker.
