About
Thus Spake Zarathustra is one of the most original and inventive works of modern philosophy.
'Radical, uncategorizable, contradictory, and often humorous, Thus Spake Zarathustra is a grand celebration of human existence by one of the most influential thinkers of the past two centuries.' - The New York Review of Books
'Enigmatic, vatic, emphatic, passionate ... Nietzsche's works together make a unique statement in the literature of European ideas' - A. C. Grayling
'While it is an undeniably philosophical work ... it is also a work of literature ... complex, paradoxical and gnomic' - Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was one of the most revolutionary and subversive thinkers in Western philosophy, and Thus Spake Zarathustra remains his most famous and influential work.
Nietzsche once wrote that some men are born posthumously, and that is certainly true in his case. The history of philosophy, theology, and psychology since the early 20th century is unintelligible without him. Nietzsche's great influence is due not only to his originality but also to the fact that he was one of the German language's most-brilliant prose writers.
'I tell you: one must still have chaos in one, to give birth to a dancing star. I tell you: ye have still chaos in you.' - Friedrich Nietzsche
