Sinopsis

Born and raised in a small town in Prussia,áFriedrich Wilhelm Nietzscheá(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, includingáThus Spake Zarathustra,áBeyond Good and Evil, andáOn the Genealogy of Morals. In 1889, at the age ofá44, 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.InáSimplyáNietzsche, ProfessoráPeter Kailátraces the development of Nietzsche&rsquo,s thought through the various phases of his life. Emphasizing the philosopher&rsquo,s critique of modern morality and his revolutionary conception of the self, he also discusses key motifs of Nietzsche&rsquo,s thought, such as the death of God, the will to power and the eternal recurrence.áEven those who have never read Nietzsche or are unsure of why he&rsquo,s important have heard his name. With Prof. Kail as a guide,áSimply Nietzscheáprovides an unparalleled and accessible introduction to the life and ideas of this most remarkable thinker.
