Product Description
This is the first comprehensive intellectual biography of Friedrich Nietzsche in English. Rüdiger Safranski, one of the world's leading Nietzsche scholars, traces Nietzsche's development from his early work on tragedy and Greek culture to his mature philosophy of the will to power and the eternal recurrence.
Safranski shows how Nietzsche's philosophy was shaped by his personal experiences, including his ill health, his relationship with Richard Wagner, and his break with the German academic establishment. He also explores the influence of Nietzsche's thought on later philosophers, such as Martin Heidegger and Michel Foucault.
An Intellectual Biography is a major contribution to Nietzsche studies. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the life and thought of one of the most important philosophers of the modern era.
