These notebooks therefore provide special insight into Nietzsche's philosophical concept of superior humans,as well as important clues to the identities of the famous nineteenth-century European figures who inspired Nietzsche's invention of fictional characters such as \"the prophet,\" \"the sorcerer,\" and \"the ugliest human.\"In these notebooks, Nietzsche also further explores ideas that were introduced in the first three parts of \u003ci\u003eThus Spoke Zarathustra: Zarathustra\u003c\/i\u003e's teaching about the death of God; his proclamation that it is time for humankind to overcome itself and create the superhumans; his discovery that the secret of life is the will to power; and his most profound thought—that the entire cosmos will eternally return.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReaders will encounter here a wealth of material that Nietzsche would include in his next book, \u003ci\u003eBeyond Good and Evil\u003c\/i\u003e, as he engages the ideas of Kant and Schopenhauer, challenges cultural icons like Richard Wagner, and mercilessly exposes the foibles of his contemporaries, especially of his fellow Germans. Readers will also discover an extensive collection of Nietzsche's poetry. Richly annotated and accompanied by a detailed translators' afterword, this volume showcases the cosmopolitanism at work in Nietzsche's multifaceted and critical exploration of aesthetic and cultural influences that transcend national (and nationalist) notions of literature, music, and culture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Stanford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52656098246936,"sku":"9781503629707","price":20.59,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/unpublished-fragments-from-the-period-of-thus-spoke-zarathustra-spring-1884-winter-1884-85-volume-15-paperback-softback-9781503629707","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
