Synopsis

Zarathustra, is a prophet who has spent years in solitude in the mountains, seeking enlightenment. He eventually descends from the mountains to share his wisdom with humanity. Throughout the book, Nietzsche presents his ideas on a variety of topics, including morality, religion, the nature of existence, and the human condition. He challenges traditional views on these subjects, advocating for a new, individualistic perspective that encourages the pursuit of one's own path in life. "Thus Spake Zarathustra" is known for its poetic and often cryptic language, as well as its challenging ideas. It has been interpreted in many different ways, and remains a cornerstone of Nietzsche's philosophy. Read in English, unabridged.

About Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) was a German philosopher and philologist whose best-known works include Thus Spoke Zarathustra; Ecce Homo; Human, All Too Human; and Beyond Good and Evil. Much of his work is characterized by radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth and criticism of traditional ideals of morality. Nietzsche's writings were significant influences on the existentialist, nihilist, and postmodernist schools of thought, as well as on the work of such later writers as Herman Hesse, Albert Camus, Sigmund Freud, and Jean-Paul Sartre.

The best way that I can describe this book is as a religious experience, which is kind of paradoxical because the main idea of the book is that “God is dead.” When Zarathustra, the ancient Persian prophet, emerges from his 10-year solitude and exclaims that God has died, he doesn’t mean that literal......more

في قراءتي الأولى للكتاب خلال سنوات الجامعة كنتُ أبحث عن دهشة اللغة على ما يبدو. في قراءتي هذه كنتُ أبحث عن فكر نيتشه. يحسب له - قطعاً - سعيه الدؤوب نحو قلقلة وهدم والتشكيك في كل شيء، ويحسب له أيضاً حبه للتجاوز وتأكيده على ضرورة تفوق الإنسان على نفسه، إلا أن .. المنهج الذي يقترحه من أجل وصول الإنسان ا......more
