«Así hablaba Zaratustra» is the philosophical work by Friedrich Nietzsche, published by Edicomunicación in paperback (317 pages, in Spanish).
In «Así hablaba Zaratustra», a prophet who has lived in solitude comes down from the mountain to convey a new way of understanding life. Through speeches and aphorisms, Nietzsche questions traditional morality and the Christian religion, and presents the figure of the superman as an ideal to be achieved. The style is poetic, allegorical and of great symbolic intensity.
The work was originally published in 1883. This paperback edition dates from 1997 and is part of the Clásicos Universales collection.
For readers interested in philosophy and in Nietzsche's work.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher and writer who started his career as a classical philologist and turned to philosophy early in his academic career. In 1869, at age 24, he was appointed Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel. Plagued by health problems for most of his life, he resigned from the university in 1879. He afterward lived as an independent writer, spending much of his life in relative solitude and financial insecurity while moving between Switzerland, Italy, and southern France in search of climates that might alleviate his condition, and in the following decade, he completed much of his core writing. In 1889, aged 44, he suffered a neurological collapse, and thereafter a complete loss of his mental faculties, with paralysis and vascular dementia; he lived out his remaining 11 years, first under the care of his mother, and later his sister, until his death. His works and his philosophy have fostered not only extensive scholarship but also much popular interest.
