Nietzsche’s influence upon European philosophy has been, and continues to be, profound. Indeed, recent years have seen Nietzsche scholarship become the battleground for debates over philosophical method between the analytic and continental traditions. This fresh introduction to Nietzsche’s philosophical work provides students new to Nietzsche with an excellent framework for understanding the central concerns of his philosophical and cultural writings and why Nietzsche’s ideas continue to spark controversy in philosophy and in allied disciplines. The book is divided into three parts. In the first section \"\"Nietzsche Against the Tradition\"\", the author shows why Nietzsche rejects wholesale certain components of the Western philosophical and religious traditions and examines the implications of rejecting them. Those components are considered under the headings of morality, religion and nihilism. In the second part \"\"Nietzsche and the Tradition\"\", the author explores Nietzsche’s ambivalent and sophisticated reflections on some of the central topics in the Western philosophical tradition. These include Nietzsche’s criticisms of metaphysics, his analysis of truth and knowledge, and his reflections on the self and consciousness. In the final section \"\"Nietzsche Beyond the Tradition\"\", Welshon discusses some of the ways in which Nietzsche does, or is thought to, transcend the Western philosophical tradition with chapters on the will to power, politics and education, artistry and the flourishing life. The book provides readers with balanced, clear analysis and is ideally suited as a companion resource for students tackling Nietzsche’s challenging prose style. | The Philosophy of Nietzsche by Rex Welshon, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
