Beyond Good and Evil

More about the book

Friedrich Nietzsche critiques the Christian worldview, arguing it is marred by false piety and a 'slave morality.' He passionately advocates for a philosophy that embraces the present and encourages individuals to assert their 'will to power.' Nietzsche traces the origins of morality back to the warrior ethos of ancient ruling classes, who defined goodness in terms of their wealth and dominance over the weak. His writings challenge established norms, positioning him as a provocative thinker of the 19th century.
