This title was first published in 2001. 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.
