If "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" is a long philosophical poem, then "The Science of Joy" is like a collection of short philosophical poems. Western classical philosophy has always respected rationality, but Nietzsche boldly challenged rationality and injected a large number of poetic elements into his works, thus opening up a new world for Western poetic philosophy.
This book is an important work of Nietzsche's later period. It was written after recovering from a serious illness and is the product of his spiritual carnival. The language in this book is concise and meaningful, the thoughts are clear and sharp, and the writing is mostly aphorisms or short poems. The fragments of thoughts complement each other. The gorgeous ones are like auspicious light feathers, and the profound ones are shocking. Life, instinct, individuals, groups, religion, love, morality, philosophy, literature, law, science and many other topics are concisely and profoundly discussed in the book. This book condenses the essence of Nietzsche and is an introduction to Nietzsche's philosophy.
