Beyond Good and Evil

Más información sobre el libro

Friedrich Nietzsche's work critiques the established views of morality, contrasting ancient and modern interpretations of good and evil. He argues that early morality stemmed from the warrior ethos of ruling classes, who defined their power as goodness. In opposition, he identifies a "slave" morality shaped by religious values that contradict those of the powerful. This text challenges philosophical systems that simplify morality into binary oppositions, presenting a more nuanced understanding of human impulses. This edition features a translation by Helen Zimmern and an introduction by Thomas Common.
