It is commonly known that Plato is Nietzsche's bete noire among
philosophers, yet there is no full-length treatment in English of
their ideas in dialogue or debate. Plato and Nietzsche is an
advanced introduction to these two thinkers, with original insights
and provocative arguments interspersed throughout the text. Through
a rigorous exploration of their ideas on art, metaphysics, ethics,
and the nature of philosophy and explaining and analyzing each
man's distinctive approach, Mark Anderson demonstrates the many and
varied ways they play off against one another. This book provides
the requisite background to understand what, really, is at issue
between these two philosophers and to develop an awareness that
Nietzsche's stance on Plato is more nuanced and complicated than it
is sometimes presented as being. Mark Anderson provides anyone
approaching Nietzsche's work with an understanding of Plato, and
those interested in Plato with an exploration of Nietzsche's many
criticisms of Platonic philosophy.
