New to Penguin Classics, The Will to Power includes some of Nietzsche's most important thoughts on nihilism, metaphysics and the future of Europe.
Friedrich Nietzsche (Author)
Friedrich Nietzsche was born near Leipzig in 1844. When he was only
twenty-four he was appointed to the chair of classical philology at
Basel University. Works published in the 1880s include The Gay
Science, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Beyond Good and Evil, On the
Genealogy of Morals, Twilight of the Idols and The Antichrist. In
January 1889, Nietzsche collapsed on a street in Turin and was
subsequently institutionalized, spending the rest of his life in a
condition of mental and physical paralysis. Works published after
his death in 1900 include Will to Power, based on his notebooks,
and Ecce Homo, his autobiography.
