About the series
Friedrich Nietzsche is one of the most important and influential philosophers of the nineteenth century. In recent decades, there has been a resurgence of interest in his thought due to the potential it has to contribute to contemporary conversations in Anglophone philosophy on knowledge, ethics, and moral psychology. Yet this resurgence of interest is also due to a distinctive feature of Nietzsche’s thought: his deep and serious engagement with some of the perennial questions of human existence. How might we live meaningfully? What are the limits of human freedom? Is knowledge possible? What is the structure of reality? The Elements in this series offer balanced, comprehensive coverage of the leading areas of Nietzsche research. Collectively, the series provides a comprehensive guide to Nietzsche’s philosophy and its continuing impact.
