Description for Twilight of Idols and Anti-Christ
Paperback. Reveals an understanding of human mean-spiritedness. Translator(s): Hollingdale, R. J. Num Pages: 224 pages. BIC Classification: HPC. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 197 x 130 x 17. Weight in Grams: 170.
In these two devastating late works, Nietzsche offers a powerful attack on the morality and the beliefs of his time
Nietzsche's Twilight of the Idols is a 'grand declaration of war' on reason, psychology and theology, which combines highly charged personal attacks on his contemporaries (in particular Hegel, Kant and Schopenhauer) with a lightning tour of his own philosophy. It also paves the way for The Anti-Christ, Nietzsche's final assault on institutional Christianity, in which he identifies himself with the 'Dionysian' artist and confronts Christ: the only opponent he feels worthy of him.
