Beskrivning
Nietzsche's Unfashionable Observations – often translated as the Untimely Meditations or Thoughts Out of Season – is made up of four independent essays written between 1873 and 1876. The book remains a puzzle: what structure, principles and arguments underlie the essays? Presupposing no prior knowledge of Nietzsche or the text, Jeffrey Church sets the essays in historical and philosophical context, guides you through the text section-by-section and develops a structural overview of each essay. He reveals how the common themes of freedom, culture and genius unify the book.

Recensioner i media

An insightful and discriminating addition to the Edinburgh Critical Guides to Nietzsche series … Addressing concerns in a diverse selection of scholarly secondary literature on Nietzsche's early period, Church (political science, Univ. of Houston) provides a combination of intellectual history, broad philosophic context, and careful textual analysis. The author is most insightful on Nietzsche's (unacknowledged) debt to Kant's three critiques, both for their circumscription of the role of reason in the identification of fundamental human concerns and the importance of self-legislating morality.
