Bogen indeholder den første samlede danske udgivelse af Friedrich Nietzsches tre essays om Richard Wagner, oversat af Jacob Jonia.Nietzsche mødte første gang Wagner ved en middag den 17. maj 1869 i sidstnævntes villa på en halvø ved Vierwaldstättersees vestbred i Tribschen, der er forstad til Luzern i Schweiz, hvor Wagner opholdt sig i årene 1866-1872. I de følgende tre år, inden Wagner flytter til Bayreuth i forbindelse med påbegyndelsen af arbejdet med opførelsen af sit festspilhus, besøgte Nietzsche ham og Cosima Wagner treogtyve gange. Nietzsches første besøg hos Wagner blev en livlig og interessant aften hvor han både fik talt med Wagner om deres fælles interesse for Schopenhauer og hans hovedværk ”Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung” og oplevede Wagner folde sig ud da han gengav udvalgte passager fra ”Mestersangerne”.Nietzsche anså Wagner for sit livs største velgører, og især operaen ”Tristan und Isolde” betog ham. Han anså denne opera for at være Wagnes højdepunkt som komponist, og at han senere blot ”forfriskede” sig med værker som ”Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg” og ”Der Ring des Nibelungen”. Nietzsche bryder med Wagner, da han modtager teksten til ”Parsifal”. Nietzsche mener, at Wagner med denne opera ophøjer de kristne kyskhedsidealer. Nu var Wagner ikke længere en visionær komponist, men – mente Nietzsche – kun en tyder og forklarer af en fortid.Bogen – der er illustreret – er redigeret og kommenteret af forfatter og filosof, mag.art. Jens Staubrand.

La obra capital del filósofo más influyente del siglo XIX Introducción de Fernando Pérez-Borbujo Álvarez y traducción de Juan Carlos García-Borrón. Obra capital de Friedrich Nietzsche, Así habló Zaratustra recrea los trabajos y las palabras del profeta persa Zaratustra en el momento en que desciende de las montañas para revelar ante el mundo que Dios ha muerto y que el Superhombre ha de ser su sucesor. Con un discurso de gran intensidad que combina la ética, la narración y la poesía, Nietzsche sostiene que el sentido de la existencia no se encuentra en las viejas ideas religiosas ni en la sumisión a los amos, sino en una fuerza vital todopoderosa que puede identificarse con una nueva forma de ser libre. La presente edición, a cargo de Fernando Pérez-Borbujo Álvarez, experto en el autor y profesor de filosofía de la Universidad Pompeu Fabra, cuenta con una magnífica introducción sobre la vida y obra de Nietzsche y un aparato de notas que ayuda a la cabal comprensión del texto. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Friedrich 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. Nietzsche's utterance 'God is dead', his insistence that the meaning of life is to be found in purely human terms, and his doctrine of the Superman and the will to power were all later seized upon and unrecognisably twisted by, among others, Nazi intellectuals. With blazing intensity and poetic brilliance, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission to authority, but in an all-powerful life force: passionate, chaotic and free.

The reference to the Antichrist is an attack on the "slave morality" and apathy of Western Christianity. Nietzsche's basic claim is that Christianity is a poisoner of western culture and perversion of the words of and practice of Jesus.

German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche was one the most controversial figures of the 19th-century. His evocative writings on religion, morality, culture, philosophy, and science were often polemic attacks against the established views of his time. First published between 1883 and 1891, "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" is a philosophical novel which details the fictional travels and teachings of Zarathustra, known also as Zoroaster, the Persian prophet and founder of Zoroastrianism. Nietzsche's portrayal of Zarathustra is not strictly historical but rather an unconventional one which turns traditional morality on its head. Utilizing a unique and experimental style, the work presents in narrative form the beginnings of Nietzsche's moral philosophy that he would address more explicitly in "Beyond Good and Evil" and "On the Genealogy of Morals." The work also addresses many of Nietzsche's other philosophical concepts including that of the Übermensch, or a self-mastered being who has achieved his ultimate potential; the eternal recurrence, the idea that the universe has some self-repeating quality; and the will to power, or the concept that ambition is the primary driving force in humans. As thought-provoking as ever, "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" remains as one of the most unique philosophical works ever written. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, is translated by Thomas Common, includes an introduction by Elizabeth Forster-Nietzsche, and notes by Anthony M. Ludovici.

"Ecco Homo: How One Becomes What One Is" is an insightful reflection by Friedrich Nietzsche upon his own life and his impact on the world of philosophy. The work, the last original work he wrote, was written in 1888, weeks before the onset of the insanity that would plague him until his death in 1900. Not published until 1908, "Ecce Homo" is an autobiography of sorts and Nietzsche offers his personal perspective and criticism on his various philosophical works, such as "Thus Spoke Zarathustra", "Beyond Good and Evil", "The Twilight of the Idols", and more. In this revealing and self-aware book the reader gains great insight into how Nietzsche weighed his previous works and their significance in history, as well as an intimate look at how he saw himself as both a human and a philosopher. He is surprisingly self-deprecating and sardonic and refreshingly does not take himself as seriously as one may imagine. He gives his last opinions on his many enemies and ends with a final reiteration of his core philosophy, a rejection of the Christian ideal that asserts suffering as a noble necessity of life and of Christianity as the bastion of supreme morality. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper, includes an introduction by translator Anthony M. Ludovici, and an appendix of some of Nietzsche's final poetry.
