Sinopsis
Of course we need to know history, Nietzsche warns, but an uncritical devotion to its study can be destructive and limiting. In this essay, the philosopher presents a complex, many-faceted argument that cautions against excessive devotion to any country's past greatness. Nietzsche writes approvingly of the ancient Greeks' approach to history, balancing a consciousness of the past with modern intellectual, cultural, and political sensibilities.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. "While life needs the services of history, it must just as clearly be comprehended that an excess measure of history will do harm to the living," declares Friedrich Nietzsche in this cautionary polemic. The iconoclastic philosopher warns us about the dangers of an uncritical devotion to the study of the past, which leads to destructive and limiting results - particularly in cases where long-ago events are exploited for nationalistic purposes. Nietzsche proposes three approaches to times gone by: the monumental, focusing on examples of human greatness; the antiquarian, involving immersion in a bygone period; and the critical, rejecting the old in favour of the new. He examines the pros and cons of each concept, favouring how the ancient Greeks looked at things, which balanced a consciousness of yesteryear with contemporary intellectual, cultural, and political sensibilities. Nietzsche's emphasis on history as a dynamic, living culture rather than the subject of detached scholarship is certain to resonate with modern readers. AUTHOR: Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (18441900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, composer, poet, philologist, and Latin and Greek scholar whose work has exerted a profound influence on Western philosophy and modern intellectual history. His explorations of the motives underlying Western philosophy, religion, and morality have exercised a profound effect on generations of writers, theologians, philosophers, and psychologists. Many of Nietzsche's most influential works are available in Dover Thrift editions. In this essay, the philosopher presents a complex, many-faceted argument that cautions against an uncritical devotion to the study of history and excessive devotion to any country's past greatness.
