Asi Hablo Zaratustra by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
It has been said that the great thinkers of the 19th century were responsible for forming the 20th-century vision of the world. In the case of As habl Zaratustra, the center of the world is man himself, and the possibility of his reaching perfection, as the bermensch, is Nietzsche's central focus. This book is a classic of modern philosophy and excellent proof that interest in Nietzsche's work is stronger now than ever. Se ha dicho, con obvia raz n, que los mayores pensadores del siglo XIX fueron quienes construyeron la imagen del mundo que tendr an los hombres del siglo XX. Tal es el caso de Nietzsche. En As habl Zaratustra el centro del mundo es, precisamente, el hombre mismo, y a su perfeccionamiento posible se dirige el autor, a trav s de su c lebre postulado del logro de aquello que l denomina el superhombre. Esta instancia de superaci n de lo humano, tal cual hab a sido entendido hasta entonces, es avizorada por Nietzsche no como una consecuencia l gica de la evoluci n social y psicol gica de la humanidad, sino como un imperativo de la conciencia que, al ser materia consciente de s misma, forzosamente debe proponerse superarse, alcanzar un plus ultra al que la impulsa su misma condici n de ser. Este notable libro es un cl sico de la filosof a moderna y una excelente prueba de que, lejos de haberse apagado el inter s por la obra nitzschiana, hoy est m s vigente que nunca.
Nietzsche, Friedrich Wilhelm: - Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900), German classical scholar, philosopher, and critic of culture, who became one of the most influential of all modern thinkers. His attempts to unmask the motives that underlie traditional Western religion, morality, and philosophy deeply affected generations of theologians, philosophers, psychologists, poets, novelists, and playwrights. He thought through the consequences of the triumph of the Enlightenment's secularism, expressed in his observation that God is dead, in a way that determined the agenda for many of Europe's most-celebrated intellectuals after his death. He was an ardent foe of nationalism, anti-Semitism, and power politics.
Nietzsche once wrote that some men are born posthumously, and that is certainly true in his case. The history of philosophy, theology, and psychology since the early 20th century is unintelligible without him. Nietzsche's great influence is due not only to his originality but also to the fact that he was one of the German language's most-brilliant prose writers.
