Friedrich Nietzsche has always been recognized as an original
thinker, one who stands apart from and outside the philosophical
schools and tendencies of his time. This is the way he continually
presented himself. Many readers have accepted this
self-interpretation at face value. Yet there is another side to
Nietzsche's thinking which shows not only an awareness of
contemporary writers, but an engagement with their ideas which is
often both intense and sustained. The intention of this study is to
explore this side in detail, by surveying various themes in his
philosophical thinking with such links in mind. It is important to
avoid one misunderstanding though: this book is not designed to
show that Nietzsche derived his ideas from various other thinkers.
In that sense, it is not necessarily about sources or even about
influences. Rather, it shows that his independence and originality
developed in dialogue with other thinkers. Those qualities are no
less real for that reason; in fact the author believes that they
can be appreciated all the more by being placed in the context of
his relations to other philosophers.
