The Antichrist

More about the book

Nietzsche's journey from a classical philologist to a pivotal philosopher highlights his profound impact on modern thought. Achieving the Chair of Classical Philology at Basel at just 24, he faced health challenges that led to his resignation in 1879. Despite these struggles, he produced significant works in the following decade. A mental collapse in 1889 marked a tragic turn, resulting in a loss of faculties. He spent his final years under the care of his mother and sister until his death in 1900, leaving a lasting intellectual legacy.
