Beschreibung

What if the true essence of life is not peace, but power?

The Will to Power is Nietzsche's most ambitious philosophical investigation-a radical, unfiltered look into the mechanics of ambition, strength, dominance, and the eternal drive to overcome limitations.

Collected from his unpublished notebooks, this work illuminates his central ideas on the role of power in human behavior, morality, and societal development.

This modern translation breaks down Nietzsche's profound yet dense insights, making them accessible while preserving their intensity.

This edition presents Nietzsche not only as a philosopher but as a visionary whose critique of modern values, religion, and herd morality continues to challenge and provoke readers today.

Autor

The philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche was born in Prussia in 1844. After the death of his father, a Lutheran minister, Nietzsche was raised from the age of five by his mother in a household of women. In 1869 he was appointed Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel, where he taught until 1879 when poor health forced him to retire. He never recovered from a nervous breakdown in 1889 and died eleven years later. Known for saying that “god is dead,” Nietzsche propounded his metaphysical construct of the superiority of the disciplined individual (superman) living in the present over traditional values derived from Christianity and its emphasis on heavenly rewards. His ideas were appropriated by the Fascists, who turned his theories into social realities that he had never intended.
