A compelling argument for the necessity for art in life, Nietzsche's first book is fuelled by his enthusiasms for Greek tragedy, for the philosophy of Schopenhauer and for the music of Wagner, to whom this work was dedicated. Nietzsche outlined a distinction between its two central forces: the Apolline, representing beauty and order, and the Dionysiac, a primal or ecstatic reaction to the sublime. He believed the combination of these states produced the highest forms of music and tragic drama, which not only reveal the truth about suffering in life, but also provide a consolation for it.

The ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from a life of solitude on the mountain to announce to the world that God has been supplanted by the "Superman", the divine in human form. In one of the most radical and influential works of modern philosophy, Friedrich Nietzsche lays out the new standards of morality after the "death of God".

Was macht den Menschen aus? Wie wurde er, was er ist? Welche großen Denker haben unsere Entwicklung beeinflusst? Unsere Box vereint Grundlagentexte der philosophischen Theorie über die Jahrtausende – und den ganzen Erdkreis.

"The Joyful Wisdom", written in 1882, just before "Zarathustra", is rightly judged to be one of Nietzsche's best books. Here the essentially grave and masculine face of the poet-philosopher is seen to light up and suddenly break into a delightful smile. The warmth and kindness that beam from his features will astonish those hasty psychologists who have never divined that behind the destroyer is the creator, and behind the blasphemer the lover of life.

A caustic criticism of nearly every philosophic predecessor and a challenge of traditionally held views on right and wrong, Friedrich Nietzsche’s Beyond Good and Evil paved the way for modern philosophical thought. Through nearly three hundred transformative aphorisms, Nietzsche presents a worldview in which neither truth nor morality are absolutes, and where good and evil are not opposites but counterparts that stem from the same desires.

L'ouvrage débute par le déclin de Zarathoustra, qui n'hésite pas à se perdre d'abord pour mieux se retrouver par la suite. Pour devenir peu à peu ce qu'il est, à savoir le prophète de l'éternel retour du semblable, ce porte-parole exotique de la pensée de Nietzsche s'engage ainsi dans un voyage pour l'essentiel intérieur, jalonné de rêves éveillés, dans le but de sortir l'humanité de son "profond sommeil" et lui indiquer la voie de la grandeur, de la victoire sur soi.

Ecce homo fue redactada por Nietzsche en 1888, año en que perdió definitivamente sus facultades mentales. Es una autobiografía peculiar e ingeniosa en la que explica el origen y la finalidad de cada uno de sus libros. Asimismo, ofrece detalles interesantes sobre su personalidad y su vida. También escribe por primera vez lo que realmente piensa de su familia. El título es irónico, ya que Ecce homo es una inscripción relativa a Jesucristo que significa: «He aquí al hombre», Nietzsche se considera a sí mismo como el anticristo.

Philosophisches Werk? Erzählung? Wie auch immer - Zarathustra ist ein epochemachendes Werk. Nach langjähriger Einsiedelei begibt sich Zarathustra unter Menschen, um ihnen vom Übermenschen zu erzählen und seine Weisheit mit ihnen zu teilen - doch erfährt er nur Hohn und Spott.

In this, his first book, Nietzsche developed a way of thinking about the arts that unites the Greek gods Apollo and Dionysus as the central symbol of human existence. Although tragedy serves as the focus of this work, music, visual art, dance, and the other arts can also be viewed using Nietzsche's analysis and integration of the Apollonian and the Dionysian. The Birth of Tragedy stands alongside Aristotle's Poetics as an essential work for all who seek to understand poetry and its relationship to human life.

Nietzsche is a major figure in Western philosophy. His work is radical, sometimes violent, often ironic; it fascinates anyone bold enough to delve into it, exerted a profound influence on modern intellectual history, and covers a wide range of subjects. Nietzsche's writings border on the poetic; his aphorisms are particularly well-known for conveying all the radicality of his thinking in a intense but light, sometimes amusing manner.

La obra contiene las principales ideas de Nietzsche, expresadas de forma poética: está compuesta por una serie de relatos y discursos que ponen en el centro de atención algunos hechos y reflexiones de un profeta llamado Zaratustra, personaje inspirado en Zoroastro, fundador del mazdeísmo o zoroastrismo. Compuesta principalmente por episodios más o menos independientes, sus historias pueden leerse en cualquier orden a excepción de la cuarta parte de la obra, pues son un cúmulo de ideas y relatos menores independientes que conforman un solo relato general.

Friedrich Nietzsche, 1844-1900, gilt als einer der bedeutendsten Philosophen des ausgehenden 19. Jahrhunderts. "Also sprach Zarathustra", das philosophische Werk über die Suche nach dem Übermenschen, ist zweifellos Nietzsches persönlichstes Werk...

Untimely Considerations contain four essays: 'David Strauss - Writer and Confessor'; 'On the Use and Abuse of History for Life'; 'Schopenhauer as Educator'; and 'Richard Wagner at Bayreuth'. The essays date from the early part of Nietzsche’s life when his Romantic view on life and art was coloured by the powerful writings and personalities of such figures as Schopenhauer and Wagner - as the titles of two of the essays proclaim. Published between 1873 and 1876, they were presented under the umbrella title 'Unzeitgemässe Betrachtungen'.

Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche's position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects the tradition of Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche demonstrates that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a "slave morality". With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual imposes their own "will to power" upon the world.

In 1887, with the view of amplifying and completing certain new doctrines which he had merely sketched in "Beyond Good and Evil" (see especially "Aphorism 260"), Nietzsche published "The Genealogy of Morals". This work is perhaps the least aphoristic, in form, of all Nietzsche's productions. For analytical power, more especially in those parts where Nietzsche examines the ascetic ideal, "The Genealogy of Morals" is unequalled by any other of his works.

This collection of Friedrich Nietzsche’s most famous works contains Beyond Good and Evil, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Human, All Too Human, and The Antichrist.

In quest'opera di Friedrich Nietzsche le idee del "superuomo" e dell'"eterno ritorno" raggiungono una forma compiuta. Dopo dieci anni di solitudine Zarathustra sente il bisogno di donare agli uomini la sua sapienza, ma il popolo distratto ride delle sue parole. Dovrà così cercarsi dei discepoli cui indirizzare i suoi discorsi. Tema dei discorsi è la ribellione alla cultura e alla morale dominanti e la visione della vita come forza indomabile e della volontà come strumento di affermazione.

La filosofía es el estudio de una variedad de problemas fundamentales acerca de cuestiones como la existencia, el conocimiento, la verdad, la moral, la belleza, la mente y el lenguaje. La filosofía occidental ha tenido una profunda influencia y a su vez se ha visto profundamente influida por la ciencia, la religión y la política occidentales.
