More about the book
Focusing on the philosophical critique of history, this work challenges the 19th-century European tendency to overly venerate historical narratives, particularly as influenced by Hegel. Nietzsche argues against the deterministic view of history that undermines individual free will and the essence of action. Originally published in 1874, this reprint preserves the original's insights into the implications of historical pride in German culture and its broader impact on thought and society.
