Nietzsche

Exploring Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche's overlooked Native American heritage, D. Harlan Wilson challenges traditional perceptions of the philosopher by presenting him as a person of color and a "gay scientist." Drawing from extensive research, this work reframes Nietzsche's identity, emphasizing his Cherokee roots and early-American lineage while sidelining his struggles with mental health and Christian morality. This provocative examination promises to reshape Nietzsche Studies, offering a bold and transformative perspective on a figure often confined to conventional narratives.
