Nietzsche and Modern German Thought by Keith Ansell-Pearson Pdf
Nietzsche is no longer a marginal figure in the study of philosophy. This collection of specially commissioned essays reflects the emergence of a serious interest amongst philosophers, sociologists and political theorists. By considering Nietzsche's ideas in the context of the modern philosophical tradition from which it emerged, his importance in contemporary thought is refined and reaffirmed. Modern German thought begins with Kant and has rarely escaped his influence. It is with respect to this Kantian heritage that this volume examines Nietzsche. These essays critically consider Nietzsche's relation to Kant and the post-Kantian tradition. In broad terms it is his relation to the domains of knowledge, ethics and aesthetics, that is through the three Kantian critiques, that Nietzsche's thought is illuminated. This allows a surprising variety of areas and questions, both about Nietzsche and about philosophy to be investigated.
Wide-ranging essays making up the first major study of Nietzsche and the classical tradition in a quarter of a century. This volume collects a wide-ranging set of essays examining Friedrich Nietzsche's engagement with antiquity in all its aspects. It investigates Nietzsche's reaction and response to the concept of "classicism," with particular reference to his work on Greek culture as a philologist in Basel and later as a philosopher of modernity, and to his reception of German classicism in all his texts. The book should be of interest to students of ancient history and classics, philosophy, comparative literature, and Germanistik. Taken together, these papers suggest that classicism is both a more significant, and a more contested, concept for Nietzsche than is often realized, and it demonstratesthe need for a return to a close attention to the intellectual-historical context in terms of which Nietzsche saw himself operating. An awareness of the rich variety of academic backgrounds, methodologies, and techniques of reading evinced in these chapters is perhaps the only way for the contemporary scholar to come to grips with what classicism meant for Nietzsche, and hence what Nietzsche means for us today. The book is divided into five sections -- The Classical Greeks; Pre-Socratics and Pythagoreans, Cynics and Stoics; Nietzsche and the Platonic Tradition; Contestations; and German Classicism -- and constitutes the first major study of Nietzsche and the classical tradition in a quarter of a century.

Studies in Nietzsche and the Classical Tradition by James C. O'Flaherty,Timothy F. Sellner,Robert Meredith Helm Pdf
These fifteen essays on Nietzsche's indebtedness to the Classical Tradition were composed by scholars in the fields of philosophy, theology, German and Classics. The essays roughly cover the following epochs: the age of the Fathers of the Western Church, medieval scholasticism, the Renaissance, the Enlightenment, Weimar Classicism, Romanticism and the several other intellectual trends and movements in the nineteenth century. Collection includes three essays comparing Nietzsche's perceptions of Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates with those (respectively) of Augustine, Aquinas, and Hamann. Three essays treat Nietzsche's relationship to Goethe, Schiller, and Heine. Three deal with Nietzsche and French literature or thought, one explores possible parallels between Nietzsche and Dante, another the extent of his debt to Byron. Four contributions center on Nietzsche's view of tragedy, and an older study has been expanded to show the underlying harmony of Nietzsche's conception with that of the French classical tragedians. This book affirms and fulfills the need for serious scholarship by the student of Nietzsche unable to work in German, while presenting a readable cross-section of the work being done relating Nietzsche to the intellectual tradition from which he sprang.
Untimely Reflections: Bilingual English & German Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche Pdf
A new 2023 translation into American English with introduction, translated from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1876 Unzeitgemäße Betrachtungen. This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 2 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. Untimely Reflections is a collection of four essays written by Friedrich Nietzsche between 1873 and 1876. The essays are a critique of contemporary culture, society, and science, and Nietzsche argues that the "modern" way of thinking is inherently flawed. In the first essay, "David Strauss: The Confessor and the Writer," Nietzsche criticizes the way in which Strauss uses historical facts to support his own personal beliefs, describing it as a "falsification of history." In the second essay, "On the Uses and Disadvantages of History for Life," Nietzsche argues that "history should be a means to an end" and that individuals should not be enslaved to the past. In the third essay, "Schopenhauer as Educator," Nietzsche praises the philosopher Schopenhauer's ideas and his emphasis on self-overcoming. The fourth essay, "Richard Wagner in Bayreuth," is a critique of the composer Richard Wagner and his approach to art and politics. Nietzsche writes, "Wagner's art is not the expression of a higher rank of man, but the symptom of a lower." Overall, "Untimely reflections" is a collection of essays in which Nietzsche critiques contemporary culture, society, and science, and argues that the "modern" way of thinking is inherently flawed.
The Scarlet Daybreak: Bilingual English & German Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche Pdf
A new 2023 translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1881 Morgenröte. This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 4 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual "Hauptwerke" or complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. This work is often translated as "The dawn" or "the dawn of day". This is a poor translation of the original title "morgenrote" which refers to the reddening of the sky in the pre-dawn hours. Morgenröthe, or Morgenröte in the modern spelling, literally means "Morning-Red", a unique German word referring to the reddening of the sky in the twilight hours before daybreak. Rendering such as The Dawn of Day" or just "Daybreak", but this misses the connotations of the word. Dämmerung is "dawn", but Morgenröte is a specific phenomenon of the predawn eastern sky. In Roman mythology, there is a Goddess associated with the Morgenröte- Aurora. In Greek mythology, Homer called this the "rose-fingered Eos". This has continuity into Christianity as the Red Mass, the beginning of two different antiphons in the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church at Advent to celebrate Mary who is symbolized by the dawn, traditionally celebrated in the pre-dawn reddening of the sky. While there isn't a direct equivalent word for the pre-dawn reddening, the closest literal translation would be "The Reddening Dawn", but to capture the dramatic tone, I rendered this “The Scarlet Daybreak”. Nietzsche is speaking here of a hope for his own dawn out of the nihilism he was born into –“seine eigene Morgenröthe”. In his initial declaration of war against Metaphysics in Human, All too Human, Nietzsche writes “the will is ashamed of the intellect.” This initial foray into Schopenhauer’s philosophy of the force of the will finally manifest itself as the Willen zur Macht here in The Scarlet Daybreak. Through this lens, he takes on the whole of Christianity and the Judeo-Christian moral continuum. He considers religious experience, particularly Christianity, as a psychopathological phenomenon, an idea he articulates in every single one of his works. His perspective shifts from a Darwinian-Historical in Human, All too Human, to a more phenomenological-psychological approach here in The Scarlet Daybreak.
The Joyful Science: Bilingual English & German Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche Pdf
A new 2023 translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1882 "Die fröhliche Wissenschaft". This is sometimes translated as "The Gay Science" or "The Happy Science" or "The Joyful Wisdom". This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 5 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual "Hauptwerke" or complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. The Joyful Science is perhaps his clearest explanation of his Epistemology in relation to his entire philosophic project. Here he writes about the Tautology of Anti-Metaphysical positions, for the very impetuous of them is rooted in Metaphysical assumptions (namely, that objective truth matters at all). Nietzsche’s megalomania begins to bloom in the Joyful Science, taking full form in The Twilight of the Idols. He continues his philosophy of negation and takes on every figure of western philosophy individually, and sometimes in pairs and groups. Christianity, he calls “a permanent suicide of reason” but also for the first time he talks about how the very preoccupation with truth has it’s origin in the “peasant morality” of Christianity.
Ecce Homo: Bilingual English & German Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche Pdf
A new 2023 translation into American English with a new introduction, translated directly from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1889 Ecce Homo. This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 10 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. Ecce Homo is the closest to an autobiography from Nietzsche. It is a deeply personal, introspective work reflecting on his life and philosophy shortly before his descent into madness and death the next year. It serves as a summation of his philosophy and a personal autobiography. The title, which translates to "Behold the Man," references the moment in the Bible when Pontius Pilate presents Christ to the crowd prior to his crucifixion. Nietzsche uses this phrase to reflect on his own life and philosophy, positioning himself as a Christ-like figure who has suffered for the sake of humanity. It is a work of staggering megalomania, foreshadowing his psychotic break. One of the key themes in the book is the idea of the "superman," or "Übermensch," which Nietzsche describes as "the meaning of my Zarathustra." He argues that the traditional values of Christianity and morality are holding humanity back from reaching its full potential and that individuals must transcend these values to become a "superman" and achieve true greatness. In the book, he writes, "I teach you the Superman. Man is something that shall be overcome."
The Genealogy of Morals: Bilingual English & German Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche Pdf
A new 2023 translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1887 "Zur Genealogie der Moral" or "On the Genealogy of Morals". This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 8 in the Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche by Newcomb Livraria Press. In tracing the origins of morality, the ruthless philosopher-artist surveys all of human history from a Darwinian-historical perspective first, and then from a phenomenological lens. He does not have the Teleological view of history of Hegel, but rather sees a broken mess of repression and mistakes leading to the modern world, which must all be broken down. His great work is to help society return to a pre-socratic greek warrior society. This and his following works Beyond Good and Evil and The Twilight of the Idols are “the books of the revaluation of all values”.
