Além do Bem e do Mal

By Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Além do Bem e do Mal: Prelúdio a uma filosofia do futuro, publicado pela primeira vez em 1886, nasceu de reflexões e anotações de Friedrich Nietzsche, durante a composição de Assim Falou Zaratustra, e inicia uma nova fase literário-filosófica do autor, a sua fase de negação e demolição de conceitos. Nietzsche considerava este livro, juntamente com "Assim Falava Zaratustra", usas principais obras, abarcando uma maior multiplicidade de assuntos e reflexões.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher and author. Born into a line of Protestant churchman, Nietzsche studied Classical literature and language before becoming a professor at the University of Basel in Switzerland. He became a philosopher after reading Schopenhauer, who suggested that God does not exist, and that life is filled with pain and suffering. Nietzsche’s first work of prominence was The Birth of Tragedy in 1872, which contained new theories regarding the origins of classical Greek culture. From 1883 to 1885 Nietzsche composed his most famous work, Thus Spake Zarathustra, in which he famously proclaimed that “God is dead.” He went on to release several more notable works including Beyond Good and Evil and The Genealogy of Morals, both of which dealt with the origins of moral values. Nietzsche suffered a nervous breakdown in 1889 and passed away in 1900, but not before giving us his most famous quote, “From life's school of war: what does not kill me makes me stronger.”
