Thoughts Out of Season: David Strauss, the Confessor and the Writer; Richard Wagner in Bayreuth V1

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Thoughts Out Of Season is a collection of four essays written by Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher, in the late 19th century. The first two essays, David Strauss, The Confessor And The Writer, and Richard Wagner In Bayreuth V1, focus on the cultural and intellectual climate of Germany during Nietzsche's time. In the first essay, Nietzsche critiques the work of David Strauss, a theologian and philosopher, and argues that his ideas are outdated and irrelevant in modern society. In the second essay, Nietzsche discusses the work of Richard Wagner, a composer and philosopher, and his impact on German culture.The remaining two essays, The Use And Abuse Of History For Life and Schopenhauer As Educator, are more philosophical in nature. In The Use And Abuse Of History For Life, Nietzsche argues that history should be used as a tool for personal growth and development, rather than as a means of understanding the past. In Schopenhauer As Educator, Nietzsche discusses the influence of the philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer on his own thinking and provides insights into his own philosophical worldview.Overall, Thoughts Out Of Season is a thought-provoking and insightful collection of essays that provide a window into the intellectual and cultural climate of Germany during Nietzsche's time. It is a must-read for anyone interested in philosophy, history, or German culture.In Two Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
