Nietzsche's Essays

About This Novel

This book selects 36 polemical essays from Friedrich Nietzsche's many important works. The book opens with three classic articles by Nietzsche discussing educational issues: "On the Future of Our Educational Institutions", "Humanistic Education Begins with Strict Language Training" and "Three Measures of University Education". The rest of the book contains 33 exquisite expositions selected from important works such as "Thus Spoke Zarathustra", "Twilight of the Idols" and "Look, This Man". In the process of criticizing Christianity, Nietzsche focused on criticizing "pity". Nietzsche believes that great acts of kindness will not make people grateful, but will lead to revenge; if this small favor has not been forgotten, it will become a worm that is always gnawing; loving one's neighbor is a pathological good and the morality of the weak; the kindness of the strong should inspire people's unique personality of self-respect and self-improvement, and promote "healthy selfishness" in people. And "healthy selfishness" is the clean selfishness that overflows from the powerful soul. It takes all things into itself and then makes them ebb from the individual soul as a gift of love. Therefore, Nietzsche advocates that human beings should love distant people, love people in the future, love the beginning, and love ghosts.
