{"product_id":"book-fi8t","title":"Simply Nietzsche","description":"\u003cp\u003eBorn and raised in a small town in Prussia, \u003cstrong\u003eFriedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche\u003c\/strong\u003e (1844-1900) began his career in philology (the study of language), and served as a professor at the University of Basel. In 1879, he was forced to leave due to health issues, which afflicted him throughout his life. Supported by his university pension and aided by friends, he spent the next decade as an independent author, writing the books for which he would become famous, including \u003cem\u003eThus Spake Zarathustra\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eBeyond Good and Evil\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eOn the Genealogy of Morals\u003c\/em\u003e. In 1889, at the age of 44, Nietzsche had a mental breakdown from which he never recovered, dying in 1900. Yet in just ten years, he produced a body of work that would mark him as one of the most influential philosophers of all time. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eSimply Nietzsche\u003c\/em\u003e, Professor \u003cstrong\u003ePeter Kail\u003c\/strong\u003e traces the development of Nietzsche's thought through the various phases of his life. Emphasizing the philosopher's critique of modern morality and his revolutionary conception of the self, he also discusses key motifs of Nietzsche's thought, such as the death of God, the will to power, and the eternal recurrence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Even those who have never read Nietzsche or are unsure of why he's important have heard his name. With Prof. Kail as a guide, \u003cem\u003eSimply Nietzsche\u003c\/em\u003e provides an unparalleled and accessible introduction to the life and ideas of this most remarkable thinker.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"INAudio","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":49430568665392,"sku":"BDfi8t","price":8.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/fi8t-Square-cover.jpg?v=1773407853","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-fi8t","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
