-- 1844-1900. Humanism.Friedrich WilhelmNietzsche

Description

A comprehensive general introduction to Nietzsche and summary interpretation of his thought.  A vast array of scholarship has been compressed here in service of an argument that is important for readers of Nietzsche at any level.  The book contextualizes the thinker in terms of his life, his self-understanding, his concerns as he himself most directly expressed them, and much recent scholarship.  The distinction of this book is that it achieves a critical interpretive advantage by placing Nietzsche in the light of the history of classical humanism.  The material discussed in Nietzsche Humanist is indispensable for any adequate overall evaluation of this thinker and his work.  It also sheds much light on the nature and meaning of classical humanism
