Remembering Friedrich Nietzsche
(October 15, 1844–August 25, 1900)

Greg Johnson

Phil Eiger Newmann, Friedrich Nietzsche, 2020.

734 words

Friedrich Nietzsche was born this day in 1844 in the small town of Röcken, near Leipzig, Saxony, in the Kingdom of Prussia. He died in August 25, 1900, in Weimar, Saxony, in the Second German Reich. The outlines of Nietzsche’s life are readily available online.

Nietzsche is one of the most important philosophers of the North American New Right because of his contributions to the philosophy of history, culture, and religion.

If you are thinking of reading Nietzsche’s works, the best introductions are The Twilight of the Idols and The Anti-Christ, preferably in the R. J. Hollingdale translations. The next volume should be Beyond Good and Evil: Prelude to a Philosophy of the Future, which Nietzsche described as the prose presentation of his entire worldview. I recommend the Judith Norman translation from Cambridge University Press.

Thus Spake Zarathustra is Nietzsche’s poetic presentation of his philosophy, but it should be saved for later. It is the worst possible introduction to Nietzsche. It has been many people’s first Nietzsche book, and for all too many it has been their last.

Such Nietzsche books as On the Genealogy of Morals, The Birth of Tragedy, Untimely Meditations, and The Gay Science are highly valuable, but should be saved till later. Daybreak: Thoughts on the Prejudices of Morality and Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits are products of a brief flirtation with certain Enlightenment ideas and are thus quite misleading as introductions. Ecce Homo, The Case of Wagner, and Nietzsche Contra Wagner should be saved for last. As a rule, the Cambridge University Press translations of Nietzsche should be preferred.

You can buy Greg Johnson’s From Plato to Postmodernism here

The introductory books on Nietzsche are mostly disappointing. I do recommend H. L. Mencken’s The Philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche. Julian Young’s Nietzsche’s Philosophy of Art and Nietzsche’s Philosophy of Religion are very clear and exciting books that examine the development of Nietzsche’s ideas throughout his career. Because of the importance of art and religion to Nietzsche, they serve as excellent overviews of his philosophy. Young has also published an important biography, Friedrich Nietzsche: A Philosophical Biography, which combines overviews of Nietzsche’s life and works in a single volume. Although it is a long book, it is well worth the investment of time. (I recommend it despite the fact that Young has been accused of plagiarizing another biography of Nietzsche. Young’s “crime” strikes me as simply an editorial mistake. It is certainly not plagiarism of the kind practiced by Alan Dershowitz or Martin Luther King.)

Nietzsche is probably the author most often tagged on this website.

    I’m reading gay science right now, translated by penguin as Joyous science.  This was a good marketing decision as too many men have been turned away from nietzsche:  “uh man I’m not reading that! I’m not gay!” Lol.

    I read that mencken’s nietszche book has some misinterpretations in it?  Is this true?

    I’d like to know if anyone would recommend Nietzsche: Attempt at a Mythology by Ernst Bertram. I’ve heard some good things, but I’d like a second opinion.

    Since I’ve never taken any philosophy class, just Art History and Russian History, I’ve never read Nietzsche.   Is it possible, for us dummies, for you to explain in under 500 – 1000 words, what is Nietzsche’s relationship to White Nationalism.  I can hear the massive sigh escaping your lips, but I don’t have enough years left to tackle this while also keeping up with current insanities in the world threatening the existence of European-Americans, etc.

      Nietszche was an anti semite for one.  He explicated the notion that Christianity was a Semitic “slave morality” imported like a Trojan horse into Europe in order to weaken the traditional aryan “master morality” wherein the strong crushed and enslaved the weak without an moral qualms.  The supposedly weak Jews invented guilt complexing the mighty Europeans to give up their mastery over lesser races, in so many words.  This greatly simplifies his thought, but that’s the gist.

      In general, I don’t think it’s possible to apply European thought from before 1900 to the contemporary world.  All those economic and political systems are fine gradations on European civilization which are lost in the vast gap between European and nonwhite societies.  Even the Soviet Union was more efficient and advanced than Jamaica or Haiti.
