About this ebook
"The Complete Letters of Nietzsche'' compiles the extensive correspondence of Nietzsche into a dingle collection, creating a window into Nietzsche's intellectual and emotional journey chronologically. This edition contains an index of the personalities mentioned in Nietzsche's letters to provide holistic context to Nietzsche's thoughts and personal interactions, including his mother Franziska, sister Elisabeth, Lou Andreas-Salomé, Wilhelm Fliess, Meta von Salis, Peter Gast (Heinrich Köselitz), Franz Overbeck, Heinrich von Stein and other personal friends. These letters contain fascinating context to Nietzsche's life and philosophical project, including commentary on his movement away from Protestantism, discussions on significant events and ideas, such as the transformation of the Oratory, thoughts on music and literature, and reflections on personal and philosophical dilemmas.This new translation from the original German, Latin and Greek manuscript contains a new Afterword by the translator, a timeline of Nietzsche's life and works, an index with descriptions of his core concepts and summaries of his complete body of works. This translation is designed to allow the armchair philosopher to engage deeply with Nietzsche's works without having to be a full-time Academic. The language is modern and clean, with simplified sentence structures and diction to make Nietzsche's complex language and arguments as accessible as possible. This Reader's Edition also contains extra material that amplifies the manuscript with autobiographical, historical and linguistic context. This provides the reader a holistic view of this very enigmatic philosopher as both an introduction and an exploration of Nietzsche's works; from his general understanding of his philosophic project to an exploration of the depths of his metaphysics and unique contributions. This edition contains: • An Afterword by the Translator on the history, impact and intellectual legacy of Nietzsche • Translation notes on the original German, Latin and Greek manuscript • An index of Philosophical concepts used by Nietzsche with a focus on Existentialism and Phenomenology • A chronological list of Nietzsche's entire body of works • A detailed timeline of Nietzsche's life and works Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, musician (briefly) and philologist whose work has had a profound impact on modern intellectual history. Known for his critiques of traditional European morality and religion, Nietzsche's ideas on the "will to power" and the "Übermensch" have influenced a wide range of philosophical, literary, and psychological thought including thinkers such as Michael Foucault and the entire Postmodern religion.
