Friedrich Nietzsche is the central figure of this study, with a focus on his major philosophical concepts and their development. The book explores Nietzsche's contributions to existentialism, emphasizing his critique of traditional values and his profound impact on modern thought. Nietzsche's work is characterized by his use of aphorisms-concise, impactful statements that capture his philosophical insights. The book discusses his notion of the Will to Power, a central concept in Nietzsche's philosophy that reflects his view of human motivation and the drive for achievement. The idea of the Overman (Übermensch) is another key theme, representing Nietzsche's vision of a higher state of human development that transcends conventional morality and societal norms. A significant portion of the book is devoted to Nietzsche's critique of religion, particularly his rejection of Christian moral values and the concept of God. The text situates Nietzsche within the broader context of modernism, showcasing how his ideas contributed to and influenced contemporary philosophical and cultural movements. Overall, the book provides an in-depth analysis of Nietzsche's life, his revolutionary ideas, and his lasting legacy in philosophy.

Thoughts out of Season is a classic German philosophy work by the great German philosopher, Friedrich Nietzsche. THE Editor begs to call attention to some of the difficulties he had to encounter in preparing this edition of the complete works of Friedrich Nietzsche. Not being English himself, he had to rely upon the help of collaborators, who were somewhat slow in coming forward. They were also few in number; for, in addition to an exact knowledge of the German language, there was also required sympathy and a certain enthusiasm for the startling ideas of the original, as well as a considerable feeling for poetry, and that highest form of it, religious poetry. Contents: David Strauss, the confessor and the writer -- Richard Wagner in Bayreuth.

Anthony Mario Ludovici (1882-1971) was one of Britain's most celebrated intellectuals in the first decades of the twentieth century.

One of the earliest and most accomplished translators of Nietzsche into English and a leading exponent of Nietzsche's thought, Ludovici was also an original philosopher in his own right.

In nearly forty books, including eight novels, plus countless essays and reviews, Ludovici set forth his views on metaphysics, religion, ethics, politics, economics, the sexes, health, eugenics, art, modern culture, and current events with a clarity, wit, and fearless honesty that made him famous.

When Ludovici died in 1971, he directed that some of his estate be used to publish his autobiography, The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist. For reasons unknown, his wishes were not honored, and his autobiography languished in obscurity for almost half a century, until now.

In The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist, Ludovici discusses his family, upbringing, education, and his friends. He retraces his intellectual development and summarizes the ideas of his principal works. And he recounts his meetings with a host of remarkable men, including British Nietzschean Dr Oscar Levy, publisher A. R. Orage, spiritual teachers G. I. Gurdjieff and P. D. Ouspensky, posture teacher F. M. Alexander, author G. K. Chesterton, and, on a visit to Germany, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, and other leading figures of the Third Reich.

The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist is required reading for Ludovici scholars and intellectual historians. But it will reach a much wider audience, because it is an ideal introduction to the life and works of a thinker who is more relevant than ever as liberalism sinks deeper into crisis and inegalitarian, anti-feminist, and nationalist ideas are resurgent.

The Twilight of the Idols by Friedrich Nietzsche or, How to Philosophise with the Hammer. The Antichrist, Notes to Zarathustra, and Eternal Recurrence and translated By Anthony M. Ludovici. Twilight of the Idols, or, How to Philosophize with a Hammer is a book by Friedrich Nietzsche, written in 1888, and published in 1889. Nietzsche criticizes German culture of the day as unsophisticated and nihilistic, and shoots some disapproving arrows at key French, British, and Italian cultural figures who represent similar tendencies. In contrast to all these alleged representatives of cultural decadence, Nietzsche applauds Caesar, Napoleon, Goethe, Thucydides and the Sophists as healthier and stronger types. The book states the transvaluation of all values as Nietzsche's final and most important project, and gives a view of antiquity wherein the Romans for once take precedence over the ancient Greeks.

The commission for a book on Nietzsche, to form the latest addition to a series of famous philosophers, is most certainly a sign that the age of adversity, through which the earlier Nietzscheans had to struggle, has at last come to an end. For ten consecutive years they had had no reply whatever to their propaganda, and their publications, loud as some of them were, proved as ineffective as cannon shots fired into the eternity of interplanetary space. Finally, however, when the echo was at last heard, it gave back nothing like the original sound: it was an echo of groans and moans, an echo of roaring disapproval and hissing mockery. Yet the years rolled on and on-and so did the printing-presses-hissing and roaring as much as ever-but at last, their thunders grew tamer and more subdued-the tempest of their fury seemed to die away in the distance-occasionally a slight mutter was still to be heard, but no more flashes and hisses-and suddenly a streak of blue was observed over the horizon, followed by a ray and smile of sunlight-and a soft zephyr of subdued and tentative compliments-and when our Nietzsche edition had begun to appear in its stately volumes we were enabled to receive from our former enemies on both sides of the Atlantic respectful congratulations.

The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche: Thoughts Out of Season. Authored by Friedrich Nietzsche, Translated by Anthony M. Ludovici, Edited by Oscar Levy

FOR an event to be great, two things must be united-the lofty sentiment of those who accomplish it, and the lofty sentiment of those who witness it. No event is great in itself, even though it be the disappearance of whole constellations, the destruction of several nations, the establishment of vast empires, or the prosecution of wars at the cost of enormous forces: over things of this sort the breath of history blows as if they were flocks of wool. But it often happens, too, that a man of might strikes a blow which falls without effect upon a stubborn stone; a short, sharp report is heard, and all is over. History is able to record little or nothing of such abortive efforts. Hence the anxiety which every one must feel who, observing the approach of an event, wonders whether those about to witness it will be worthy of it. This reciprocity between an act and its reception is always taken into account when anything great or small is to be accomplished; and he who would give anything away must see to it that he find recipients who will do justice to the meaning of his gift. This is why even the work of a great man is not necessarily great when it is short, abortive, or fruitless; for at the moment when he performed it he must have failed to perceive that it was really necessary; he must have been careless in his aim, and he cannot have chosen and fixed upon the time with sufficient caution. Chance thus became his master; for there is a very intimate relation between greatness and the instinct which discerns the proper moment at which to act.

The Will to Power

An Attempted Transvaluation Of All Values

By

Friedrich Nietzsche

Translated By Anthony M. Ludovici

In the volume before us we have the first two books of what was to be Nietzsche's greatest theoretical and philosophical prose work. The reception given to Thus Spake Zarathustra had been so unsatisfactory, and misunderstandings relative to its teaching had become so general, that, within a year of the publication of the first part of that famous philosophical poem, Nietzsche was already beginning to see the necessity of bringing his doctrines before the public in a more definite and unmistakable form. During the years that followed--that is to say, between 1883 and 1886--this plan was matured, and although we have no warrant, save his sister's own word and the internal evidence at our disposal, for classing Beyond Good and Evil (published 1886) among the contributions to Nietzsche's grand and final philosophical scheme, The Will to Power, it is now impossible to separate it entirely from his chief work as we would naturally separate The Birth of Tragedy, the Thoughts out of Season, the volumes entitled Human, all-too-Human, The Dawn of Day, and Joyful Wisdom.

Ecce Homo: Nietzsches Autobiography by Friedrich Nietzsche. Ecce Homo is the last prose work that Nietzsche wrote. It is true that the pamphlet Nietzsche contra Wagner was prepared a month later than the Autobiography; but we cannot consider this pamphlet as anything more than a compilation, seeing that it consists entirely of aphorisms drawn from such previous works as Joyful Wisdom, Beyond Good and Evil, The Genealogy of Morals, etc. Coming at the end of a year in which he had produced the Case of Wagner, The Twilight of the Idols, and The Antichrist, Ecce Homo is not only a coping-stone worthy of the wonderful creations of that year, but also a fitting conclusion to his whole life, in the form of a grand summing up of his character as a man, his purpose as a reformer, and his achievement as a thinker. As if half conscious of his approaching spiritual end, Nietzsche here bids his friends farewell, just in the manner in which, in the Twilight of the Idols (Aph. 36, Part ix.), he declares that every one should be able to take leave of his circle of relatives and intimates when his time seems to have come-that is to say, while he is still himself while he still knows what he is about, and is able to measure his own life and life in general, and speak of both in a manner which is not vouchsafed to the groaning invalid, to the man lying on his back, decrepit and exhausted, or to the moribund victim of some wasting disease.

Anthony Mario Ludovici (1882-1971) was one of Britain's most celebrated intellectuals in the first decades of the twentieth century.

One of the earliest and most accomplished translators of Nietzsche into English and a leading exponent of Nietzsche's thought, Ludovici was also an original philosopher in his own right.

In nearly forty books, including eight novels, plus countless essays and reviews, Ludovici set forth his views on metaphysics, religion, ethics, politics, economics, the sexes, health, eugenics, art, modern culture, and current events with a clarity, wit, and fearless honesty that made him famous.

When Ludovici died in 1971, he directed that some of his estate be used to publish his autobiography, The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist. For reasons unknown, his wishes were not honored, and his autobiography languished in obscurity for almost half a century, until now.

In The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist, Ludovici discusses his family, upbringing, education, and his friends. He retraces his intellectual development and summarizes the ideas of his principal works. And he recounts his meetings with a host of remarkable men, including British Nietzschean Dr Oscar Levy, publisher A. R. Orage, spiritual teachers G. I. Gurdjieff and P. D. Ouspensky, posture teacher F. M. Alexander, author G. K. Chesterton, and, on a visit to Germany, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Goebbels, and other leading figures of the Third Reich.

The Confessions of an Anti-Feminist is required reading for Ludovici scholars and intellectual historians. But it will reach a much wider audience, because it is an ideal introduction to the life and works of a thinker who is more relevant than ever as liberalism sinks deeper into crisis and inegalitarian, anti-feminist, and nationalist ideas are resurgent.
