»Für Unterlassungen schütze ich Zartgefühl vor Untätigkeit verbräme ich mit Leidenschaft Die Feigheit übersteigt meine Wünsche Meinem Charakter sehe ich beim Entstehen zu« Ein Gedichtroman. So eigenwillig wie sein Protagonist: Ein Diogenes im Anthropozän, voller Selbstironie und Sarkasmus. Kein Bürgerschreck, vielmehr schrecklicher Bürger. Sein Protest liegt im stillen Rückzug. Ein Text, der seltsame Stilblüten treibt.

'One of the greatest books of a very great thinker' Michael TannerBeyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche's position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects traditional Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil.

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...

In these two devastating late works, Nietzsche offers a powerful attack on the morality and the beliefs of his timeNietzsche's Twilight of the Idols is a 'grand declaration of war' on reason, psychology and theology, which combines highly charged personal attacks on his contemporaries (in particular Hegel, Kant and Schopenhauer) with a lightning tour of his own philosophy. It also paves the way for The Anti-Christ, Nietzsche's final assault on institutional Christ...

Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a 19th century literary masterpiece and key philosophical work by Nietzsche. Zarathustra descends from his cave in the mountains after ten years of solitude, brimming with wisdom and love and wants to teach humanity. The individual lessons and sermons delivered by Zarathustra cover most of the general themes of Nietzsche's mature philosophy, though often in highly symbolic and obscure form.

"Thus Spoke Zarathustra" by Friedrich Nietzsche is a profound and influential philosophical work that follows the journey of Zarathustra, a sage who retreats into the mountains for solitude and enlightenment. After years of contemplation, Zarathustra returns to share his insights with humanity. Through a series of parables, discourses, and aphorisms, Zarathustra explores complex themes such as the death of God, the will to power, and the concept of the Übermensch, or superman. This audiobo...

In late 1888, only weeks before his final collapse into madness, Nietzsche (1844-1900) set out to compose his autobiography, and Ecce Homo remains one of the most intriguing yet bizarre examples of the genre ever written. In this extraordinary work Nietzsche traces his life, work and development as a philosopher, examines the heroes he has identified with, struggled against and then overcome - Schopenhauer, Wagner, Socrates, Christ - and predicts the cataclysmic impact of his 'forthcoming ...

But in fact the book does much more than that, elucidating and expanding on the cryptic aphorisms of Beyond Good and Evil and signalling a return to the essay form. In these thr...
