Nietzsche, the so-called herald of the 'philosophy of the future',
nevertheless dealt with the past on nearly every page of his
writing. Not only was he concerned with how past values, cultural
practices and institutions influence the present - he was plainly
aware that any attempt to understand that influence encounters many
meta-historical problems. This comprehensive and lucid exposition
of the development of Nietzsche's philosophy of history explores
how Nietzsche thought about history and historiography throughout
his life and how it affected his most fundamental ideas. Discussion
of the whole span of Nietzsche's writings, from his earliest
publications as a classical philologist to his later genealogical
and autobiographical projects, is interwoven with careful analysis
of his own forms of writing history, the nineteenth-century
paradigms which he critiqued, and the twentieth-century views which
he anticipated. The book will be of much interest to scholars of
Nietzsche and of nineteenth-century philosophy.
