Nietzsche's Voices, a much-anticipated volume of the Collected
Writings of John Sallis, presents his two-semester lecture course
on Nietzsche offered in the Philosophy Department of Duquesne
University during the school year 1971–72. "Nietzsche is easy to
read; his is apparently the easiest of all the great philosophies.
Yet the easy intelligibility is deceptive. Nietzsche's writings
make us believe we have understood when in fact we have not. His
philosophy is actually the exact opposite of easy," says Sallis.
With this warning always in mind, Sallis first discusses
Nietzsche's life and the relevance of the ancient Greeks to his
thought and then analyzes Nietzsche's views on truth, history,
morality, and the death of God. The entire second half of the book
is devoted to Nietzsche's main work, the tragic, comedic, poetic
Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Nietzsche's Voices offers a sensitive and
brilliant introduction to the thought of Friedrich Nietzsche, as
presented by one of today's most significant philosophers.
