Nietzsche (Pocket Essentials) - Tapa blanda

Pocket Essentials is a dynamic series of books that are concise, lively, and easy to read. Packed with facts as well as expert opinions, each book has all the key information you need to know about such popular topics as film, television, cult fiction, history, and more. In this Pocket Essential Travis Elborough guides the reader through the difficulties of Friedrich Nietzsche's life, his friendship with Wagner, his years as an itinerant scholar up to his 1889 full-scale mental collapse, and the twilight years of madness under the care of his sinister sister, Elizabeth. Each of Nietzsche's major works is summarized and the central concepts in his philosophy examined. Nietzsche's influence on 20th century thought is explored, as is the posthumous hijacking of his name by the Nazis.
