Ecce Homo ANNOTATION
An invaluable summary of the work and conflicts of the philosopher's life and one of the most beautifully written books in the German language.
FROM THE PUBLISHER
In late 1888, only weeks before his final collapse into madness, Nietzsche (1844-1900) set out to trace his development of a tragic philosopher. He examined the heroes he has identified with, struggled against and then overcome - Schopenhauer, Wagner, Socrates, Christ - he predicts the cataclysmic impact of his forthcoming revaluation of all values, and he gives final, definitive expression to all his main beliefs.
