    About this audiobook

    Nietzsche argues that philology is not just an academic discipline, but a way of life that requires a deep appreciation for language and culture. He emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context of texts, and the need to read them in their original language to fully appreciate their meaning and beauty. "We Philologists" is a passionate and insightful reflection on the value and meaning of philology, and a call to approach the study of language and literature with greater creativity and sensitivity. Read in English, unabridged.
