Friedrich Nietzshe Books

    Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher who questioned the foundations of Christianity and traditional morality. His philosophy of "life-affirmation" calls for an honest examination of all doctrines that drain life's expansive energies, regardless of their social prevalence. Nietzsche's thought, focused on enhancing individual and cultural health and embracing the realities of this world, continues to inspire artists and thinkers across cultural disciplines.

      Provocative and controversial, these two powerful works were written by Friedrich Nietzsche at the height of his powers as a polemicist. Twilight of the Idols attacks the Platonic legacy in Western philosophy, opposing all universal principles of morality. The Antichrist, a denunciation of institutional Christianity, delivers a brilliant and scathing indictment of 19th-century European culture. Of the latter, critic H. L. Mencken declared, "At bottom it is enormously apt and effective — and on the surface it is undoubtedly a good show."
