About this book

Fragmentary notes from the autumn of 1874, left unpublished in Nietzsche's lifetime, turn a hard eye on the teaching of the ancient classics. The translator's introduction finds two lines of thought in the aphorisms: a sharp attack on German professors of the classics, and constructive ideas about what classical culture ought to be. Nietzsche himself held a chair in classical philology at Basel. This is volume eight of Oscar Levy's English edition of his complete works, translated by J. M. Kennedy and printed in Edinburgh in 1911.

About the author

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche - BDeBooks
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a German philosopher whose critiques of religion and morality, and his ideas of the will to power and eternal recurrence, left a deep mark on twentieth-century thought. His late works, written in isolation, grew increasingly urgent before mental collapse ended his career.
