This hardcover edition of The Joyful Wisdom boasts an authoritative
English translation by Thomas Common, which brings Nietzsche's
poetry and philosophy to vivid comprehension. Initially published
in 1882 and also known by its alternate title The Gay Science, the
arguments within this book are primarily occupied with the
philosophical concept that God has died. It is in this publication
that Nietzsche first makes his famous statement that God is dead; a
phrase which was to become associated with the philosopher during
and after his lifetime. For his own part, Nietzsche identifies
these writings as being of an intensely personal nature, the poems
within expressing feelings at the core of his being. Definitively
part of the philosopher's middle period, this work encapsulates the
praise of science and intellectual prowess which characterized
Nietzsche in the early 1880s. A strong alignment with skepticism
and a commitment to innovation with the scientific method, are
strongly praised by the philosopher.
