Commanding the earth and Ruling Religion: Nietzsche's Dionysian Apocalypse of Man
Nietzsche's classic work, unfinished and unpublished when he collapsed into insanity, is the most controversial of his works. Some avoid using it as the basis of their Nietzsche studies because they cannot be sure if these thoughts are genuinely Niietzsch's, a question that is largely a question of the way Nietzsche's legacy was handled by his sister. However, some who have interpreted Nietzsche, most ... Read More

HAH, Mixed Opinions and Maxims
137. The worst readers.- The worst readers are those who proceed like plundering soldiers: they pick up a few things they can use, soil and confuse the rest, and blaspheme the whole.
157. Sharpest criticism.-- One criticizes a person, a book most sharply when one picture their ideal.

Rating: - The Greatest Book Of One Of The Greatest Minds
This is the literary equivelent to a posthumous release of demos from a great musician.

I think what endears him to people such as myself is his ability to trim the fat off the obvious and serve up only the best and most essential for our intellectual consumption. The first time I read this book I had felt a great deal of relief that the general essence and inspiration found in many of ... Read More
Rating:  - Good Book but not to be read through
This book is loaded with good philosophy but don't expect to pick it up and read through it. It is comprised of various notes left behind by Nietzsche and that is how they are put in the book. There is very little structure and the entries may seem drawn out and repetitive.
Rating: - going, going, ...insane.
a collection of notes and fragments from a brilliant philosopher having second thoughts before his brain went supernova on him. this kaufmann fella does a great job with f.n.'s work...thorough presentation, exhaustive annotations and footnotes, historical perspective, etc. not my favorite nietzsche book, but still intellectually light years ahead of what comprises the majority of modern thought. which isn't saying much...
not for those new to mr. n. i'd suggest one of the collections ... Read More
