Beskrivning
This book explores Friedrich Nietzsche's understanding of modern political culture and his position in the history of modern political thought. Surveying Nietzsche's entire intellectual career from his years as a student in Bonn and Leipzig during the 1860s to his genealogical project of the 1880s, Christian Emden contributes to a historically informed discussion of Nietzsche's response to the political predicaments of modernity, and sheds new light on the intellectual and political culture in Germany as the ideals of the Enlightenment gave way to the demands of the modern nation state. This is a distinguished addition to the series of Ideas in Context, and a major reassessment of a philosopher and aphorist whose stature among post-enlightenment European thinkers is now almost unrivalled.

Recensioner i media

'It is one of the great merits of Christian Emden's Friedrich Nietzsche and the Politics of History that he attempts one of the richest and most detailed accounts of Nietzsche's relationship to late nineteenth-century Germany's cultural and political inheritance, situation, and challenges. … It is to Emden's credit that he has begun a far more serious and historically informed investigation of who Nietzsche as a thinker of the historical and the political was and what he wanted.' R. Kevin Hill, Political Theory
