Zhizn' Fridrikha Nitsshe - Prido S.

Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the most mysterious figures in philosophy; perhaps the most misunderstood thinker in history, who foresaw the problems of our time and sought solutions for them. His ideas about the superman, the death of God, the will to power and slave morality cast doubt on those adopted in the 19th and 20th centuries. social norms and models of political relations and had a significant impact on Western culture. But what do most of us know about Nietzsche himself? What was the philosopher admired by Albert Camus, Ayn Rand, Martin Buber? Nietzsche wrote that philosophy itself is autobiographical, and in a vivid, convincing, myth-destroying biography created by the acclaimed master of the genre Sue Prido, opens the world of this brilliant, eccentric thinker and burdened with many problems of man. Attention is focused on the events and people who influenced the life and work of the great philosopher (Richard and Cosima Wagner, Lou Salome - the fatal woman who broke his heart, Sister Elizabeth). Pious Christian upbringing, deep experiences associated with the mysterious death of his father, teaching, lonely pastime high in the mountains and sad immersion in madness - examining the key stages of Nietzsche's biography and analyzing his most important works, the author vividly recreates the intellectual and emotional aspects of the philosopher's life.
