Description
CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Nietzsche: Writings From The Late Notebooks by Friedrich Nietzsche , Translated by Kate Sturge , Edited by Rudiger Bittner
For much of his adult life, Nietzsche wrote notes on philosophical subjects in small notebooks that he carried around with him. After his breakdown and subsequent death, his sister supervised the publication of some of these notes under the title The Will to Power, and that collection, which is textually inaccurate and substantively misleading, has dominated the English-speaking discussion of Nietzsches later thought. The present volume offers, for the first time, accurate translations of a selection of writings from Nietzsches late notebooks, dating from his last productive years between 1885 and 1889. Many of them have never before been published in English. They are translated by Kate Sturge from reliable texts in the Colli-Montinari edition, and they are edited by Rudiger Bittner, whose introduction places them in the context of Nietzsches philosophy as a whole.show more
