Friedrich Nietzsche haunts the modern world. His elusive writings
with their characteristic combination of trenchant analysis of the
modern predicament and suggestive but ambiguous proposals for
dealing with it have fascinated generations of artists, scholars,
critics, philosophers, and ordinary readers. This study gives a
lucid and penetrating analytical account of all the central topics
of Nietzsche's epistemology and metaphysics, including his views on
truth and language, his perspectivism, and his doctrines of the
will-to-power and the eternal recurrence. The Nietzsche who emerges
from these pages is a subtle and sophisticated philosopher, whose
highly articulated views are of continuing interest as
contributions to a whole range of philosphical issues. This reading
of Nietzsche should interest not only philosophers, but also
readers in neighboring disciplines such as literature and
intellectual history. It is specifically intended for philosophers,
specialists in literature and intellectual history, and their
students.
This volume brings together fourteen mostly previously published
articles by the prominent Nietzsche scholar Maudemarie Clark.
Clark's previous two books on Nietzsche focused on his views on
truth, metaphysics, and knowledge, but she has published a great
deal on Nietzsche's views on ethics and politics in article form.
Putting those articles - many of which appeared in obscure venues -
together in book form will allow readers to see more easily how her
views fit together as a whole, exhibit important developments of
her ideas, and highlight Clark's distinctive voice in Nietzsche
studies. Clark provides an introduction tying her themes together
and placing them in their broader context.
This book presents a provocative new interpretation of Beyond Good
and Evil, arguably Nietzsche's most important work. The problem is
that it appears to express merely a loosely connected set of often
questionable opinions. Can Nietzsche really be an important
philosopher if this is his most important book? Maudemarie Clark
and David Dudrick address this question with a close reading that
emphasizes how Nietzsche writes. They argue that the first part of
Beyond Good and Evil presents coherent and interconnected arguments
for subtle and well-thought-out positions on traditional issues.
Nietzsche's infamous doctrine of the will to power turns out to be
a compelling account of the structure and origin of the human soul.
And although he rejects some aspects of traditional philosophy,
Nietzsche's aim is to show how philosophy's traditional aspirations
to seek both the true and the good can be fulfilled. Beyond Good
and Evil turns out to be a major work of philosophy and Nietzsche's
masterpiece.

Daybreak marks the arrival of Nietzsche's "mature" philosophy and is indispensable for an understanding of his critique of morality and "revaluation of all values." This volume presents the distinguished translation by R. J. Hollingdale, with a new introduction that argues for a dramatic change in Nietzsche's views from Human, All too Human to Daybreak, and shows how this change, in turn, presages the main themes of Nietzsche's later and better-known works such as On the Genealogy of Morality. The edition is completed by a chronology, notes and a guide to further reading.
