The birth of tragedy ; and, The genealogy of morals / Friedrich Nietzsche ; translated by Francis Golffing. - 1st Anchor Books ed. - New York : Anchor Books, 1990, c1956. - x, 299 p. ; 21 cm.
First work is a translation of: Die Geburt der Tragödie. Second work is a translation of: Zur Genealogie der Moral.
Description :
Skillful, sophisticated translations of two of Nietzsche's essential works about the conflict between the moral and aesthetic approaches to life, the impact of Christianity on human values, the meaning of science, the contrast between the Apollonian and Dionysian spirits, and other themes central to his thinking. The Birth of Tragedy (1872) was Nietzsche's first book, The Geneology of Morals (1887) one of his last. Though they span the career of this controversial genius, both address the problems such as the conflict between the moral versus aesthetic approaches to life, the effect of Christianity on human values, the meaning of science, and the famous dichotomy between the Apollonian and Dionysian spirits, among many themes which Nietzsche struggled throughout his tortured life.
