Human, All Too Human (1878) marks the point where Nietzsche
abandons German romanticism for the French Enlightenment. At a
moment of crisis in his life (no longer a friend of Richard Wagner,
forced to leave academic life through ill health), he sets out his
views in a scintillating and bewildering series of aphorisms which
contain the seeds of his later philosophy (e.g. the will to power,
the need to transcend conventional Christian morality). The result
is one of the cornerstones of his life's work. It well deserves its
subtitle 'A Book for Free Spirits', and its original dedication to
Voltaire, whose project of radical enlightenment here finds a new
champion. Beyond Good and Evil (1886) is a scathing and powerful
critique of philosophy, religion and science. Here Nietzsche
presents us with problems and challenges that are as troubling as
they are inspiring, while at the same time outlining the virtues,
ideas, and practices which will characterise the philosophy of the
future. Relentless, energetic, tirelessly probing, he both
determines that philosophy's agenda and is himself the embodiment
of the type of thought he wants to foster.
