    About this audiobook

    “Let old ones go. Dont be a memory-monger! Once you were young??now you are even younger.”

    ? Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil.



    Beyond Good and Evil is a collection of essays and aphorisms in which Friedrich Nietzsche expresses his desire for a “transvaluation of all values.” He contends that no human values are absolute; that all value distinctions (such as that between ‘good’ and ‘evil’) are artificial, the result of mere traditional prejudices; and that humanity should discard its old, outmoded values (such as ‘good’ and ‘evil’).

    Friedrich Nietzsche

    Friedrich Nietzsche wird 1844 in Röcken in Sachsen geboren. Nach dem Studium der Philologie und Theologie in Bonn und Leipzig wird er mit 24 Jahren Professor für Klassische Philologie in Basel. Dort lernt er Richard Wagner kennen, der sein Denken zusammen mit den Schriften Schopenhauers am stärksten beeinflußt. Im Krieg 1870/71 wird Nietzsche freiwillig Krankenpfleger, kehrt aber selbst erkrankt zurück und muß sich 1879 von seinem Lehramt dispensieren lassen.Als Außenseiter unter den deutschen Philosophen des späten 19. Jahrhunderts bleibt der Philologe Nietzsche in der Philosophie Autodidakt. In seinem ersten philosophischen Werk Die Geburt der Tragödie aus dem Geiste der Musik (1872) entwickelt Nietzsche die These, daß in den Wagnerschen Dramen die Tragödie aus der Musik wiedergeboren wird und formuliert den Antagonismus zwischen Apollinischem und Dionysischem.Schon die Unzeitgemäßen Betrachtungen von 1876 zeigen die Entfremdung von Wagner, die Distanz zur Philosophie Schopenhauers wird mit Menschliches, Allzumenschliches offenbar. Nietzsche wählt die Unabgeschlossenheit der aphoristischen Form, die für ihn zu einem neuen „Denkstil für freie Geister“ paßt. Während des immer stärkeren Rückzugs in die Einsamkeit bereitet Nietzsche die Neuausgaben seiner Werke vor, für die er neue Vorreden schreibt, die als Selbstinterpretationen gelesen werden können. In den Jahren ab 1883 erscheinen die zentralen philosophischen Dichtungen des Spätwerks Also sprach Zarathustra, Jenseits von Gut und Böse oder Ecce homo. 1889 erleidet Nietzsche in Turin den endgültigen geistigen Zusammenbruch und wird in eine Nervenheilanstalt eingeliefert. In zunehmender geistiger Umnachtung verbringt er seine letzten Lebensjahre in der Pflege seiner Mutter und seiner Schwester. Nietzsche stirbt 1900 in Weimar.

      I enjoyed the writings of this philosopher. The author was a strong thinker of the eighteen hundreds. His philosophy goes strongly against the western thought of Christianity. Instead of the slave morality that Christianity embraces, his philosophy celebrates living in the moment.
      I recommend this book to all.
      Enjoy and Be Blessed.

      Es una visión filosófica de la sociedad y el mundo en el que vivimos, cómo ha sido y cómo será siempre. Este conocimiento es atemporal. Me he encontrado con muy pocas obras de este calibre. Yo era estudiante a principios de la década de 1960. Pensamiento provocador y cosas irónicamente ingeniosas. Todo pensador profundo tiene más miedo de ser entendido que de ser mal entendido. Este último quizás hiere su vanidad; pero el primero hiere su corazón, su simpatía. Más bien libro esotérico. A veces difícil de seguir. Hábilmente escrito.

      It is an excellent audio book which left me a different thought about life, we human beings grow and we search as our existence process goes by, we think about what is good and what is bad, what is right and what is wrong. We wonder so much about those words that we forget to live, the good thing about having listened to this audio book is that it gave me the opportunity to know that in life it only matters to live it and it is our responsibility as we live it, whether it is good or bad, the only ones who can decide in Our lives are us. Happiness is based on the best moments in which they are good or bad, they leave us a magnificent teaching and they give us a great smile which is the perfect content in life.Thank you very much to the authors of this audio book that helped me as a person to find that space of personal strength when it comes to understanding that the greatest freedom in the world is to be alive and the fact of having that opportunity is already a triumph called freedom Thank you very much for the rest of my life

      It's one of the hardest books I have ever attempted to read. Each Aphorism requires multiple readings. Either that or I am just too thick headed for the ideas and the language in the book. But if you are looking for some intellectual stimulation this book checks all the right ones.

    • 5/5
      it is a well elaborated plot which includes Beyond Good and Evil by philosopher discusses the theory of the “will to truth.” At the heart of Nietzsche’s argument is the idea that to learn the truth, a human being must question everything. Everything she or he has ever learned or observed must be reexamined. Nothing is free from this self-interrogation, and that includes self-perception, societal teachings, and religion. Nietzsche proposes that any human being has the capability to do this, but most do not because they lack the ambition to dig through everything they have ever learned to question its validity. Nietzsche does not value those who have not the desire to delve into the deepest areas of their mind to find the truth.
      So where does Nietzsche get his truth from? He writes that his theories are a result of the intensity of his education, particularly the study of Ancient Greek and modern philosophers. However, he thinks little of newer philosophers. While he believes they may raise unique and interesting points, he believes them to be untried and untested.
      Two of Nietzsche’s main viewpoints rise to the surface in Beyond Good and Evil. The first topic that is near and dear to him is that of intelligence. He makes the effort to highlight the foolishness of humans throughout history. He insists that a person’s upbringing is no excuse for not pursuing or using intelligence. The second topic which heavily permeates this book is Nietzsche’s opinion of women. His opinion is not generous, as he believes that females are incompetent and should simply be quiet and do as men tell them to do. He does not believe women have the mental capacity to grasp knowledge, therefore, they must rely solely on instinct.

      What an wonderful book.this is best book i have read till now, Thoughtful, yes. Interesting, definitely. Philosophical, sure. But philosophy? Nietzsche is a powerful and brilliant writer. His prose, swift; his sentences, roving; his tone, pugnacious. But I frequently wished he would decelerate from his brisk allegro to a moderato, to a tempo where he can better express his ideas systematically. But perhaps that’s not the point. After all, Nietzsche was aiming for destruction, not construction. And this book contains plenty of it.thanks for such an wonderful book.
