Acerca de este libro electrónico

From philosophy undergraduates showing off in murky bars to Chidi''s unforgettable monologue in TV sensation The Good Place, The Gay Science is one Nietzsche''s most-quotable texts. But what do those soundbites actually mean? Robert Miner attends closely to the rhymes and aphorisms that make up Nietzsche’s The Gay Science – and make it so appealing yet so frequently misunderstood. Tracking Nietzsche’s mixture of subtle argumentation, memorable images and provocative rhetoric, Miner opens up multiple ways of interpreting the text and applying it to our own circumstances. Presupposing no prior knowledge of Nietzsche, Miner begins with the 1882 edition – the first to announce the ‘death of God’, amor fati and eternal recurrence. He also illuminates the significance of Nietzsche’s decision to publish a second edition of The Gay Science in 1887, with a fifth book, 40 aphorisms composed after Zarathustra, a new preface and an appendix of songs.
