Nietzsche | "Thus Spake Zarathustra"
- © Wordsworth Editions Limited 1997
- Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary and subversive thinkers in Western philosophy, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra
remains his most famous and influential work. It describes how the
ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from his solitude in the
mountains to tell the world that God is dead and that the Superman, the
human embodiment of divinity, is his successor. With blazing intensity
and poetic brilliance, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is
not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission, but in an
all-powerful life force: passionate, chaotic and free.
"Enigmatic, vatic, emphatic, passionate... often breathtakingly insightful, Nietzsche's works together make a unique statement in the literature of European ideas." - A.C. Grayling - • Language: English
