"Nietzsche's Autobiography: Look! This Man" Author: [Germany] Nietzsche Publisher: Taiwan Strait Publishing House

About the Author:

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

German philosopher and poet.

Born on October 15, 1844 in a rural pastor's family in the Prussian town of Rocken.

In 1849, Nietzsche's father passed away, and then his 2-year-old brother died. This shaped his melancholy and introverted personality. Nietzsche grew up in a completely feminine family.

In February 1869, Nietzsche, who was only 25 years old, was hired as a professor of classical linguistics at the University of Basel in Switzerland.

In 1872, he published his first monograph, The Birth of Tragedy, which attracted enthusiastic applause but also faced much criticism.

Nietzsche later wrote "Untimely Thoughts", "Human, All Too Human", "The Joyful Knowledge", "Thus Spoke Zarathustra", "The Twilight of the Idols", and "Eye! This Man".

He expresses his unique insights into religion, morality, culture, philosophy and science in a bold, unrestrained and direct style.

He was one of the greatest philosophers in Western philosophy in the 19th century, and his philosophical thoughts had a crucial influence on the subsequent development of philosophy.
