Friedrich Nietzsche

Published by Diogenes as Friedrich Nietzsche
Original Title: Friedrich Nietzsche
It may at first sound astonishing that, of all people, Friedrich Nietzsche, this lost son of Protestantism, this »aesthete beyond redemption« and author of numerous, seemingly blasphemous writings, was actually a religious person. Nevertheless, a detailed and attentive second look at this philosopher and his works revals the hidden potential for faith that drove him. His outlook was a religious rejection of religiousness, his goal a new, deeper religious comprehension and a complete rearrangement of religious feeling. With great sensitivity, Walter Nigg expounds this hidden side of the prophetic thinker, without allowing the literary quality of his portrait to suffer under the psychological meticulousness of his investigations.

»The more one penetrates into Nietzsche, the more strongly does the religious interpretation become apparent. This fundamental religious drive controlled Nietzsche's innermost being.«
