World Classics Library: Nietzsche

Could it be possible? This old saint in the forest hath not yet heard of it, that God is dead! - Nietzsche, Thus Spake Zarathustra

This beautiful gilded hardcover brings together three of Friedrich Niezsche's most influential essays, Thus Spake Zarathustra, Ecce Homo and Beyond Good and Evil.

This German philosopher was one of the most prominent thinkers of the 19th century. His work contains a radical critique of objective truth, rejecting Christian morality and arguing instead that nihilism has become an inherent condition of the modern world.

These influential works have profoundly shaped modern philosophy and their ideas remain as pertinent now as they ever were.

ABOUT THE SERIES: The World Classics Library series brings together stunning ornate hardback editions of world-renown literature across fiction and philosophy, featuring luxurious gold cover embossing and striking, full-colour fore-edge designs.
