«El anticristo» is the philosophical essay by Friedrich Nietzsche, published by Edimat Libros in 1998 in paperback (126 pages, in Spanish).
In this work, Nietzsche attacks Christianity, considering it a doctrine that falsifies vital values and consecrates an ethic of submission. Against the vital attitude he attributes to Jesus, he places the later manipulation of his message by Saint Paul and by a clergy moved by resentment.
Edition from the Clásicos de siempre line. Original title: «Der Antichrist: Fluch auf das Christentum».
For philosophy readers interested in the critique of Christianity and in Nietzsche's thought.
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.
