Faithful rendition of Nietzsche's Also Sprach Zarathustra, Part lV, in English playscript adaptation. Includes stage directions and original German text in a beautiful Fraktur font. "You are good, O Zarathustra, and even better than a cow" ...thus Nietzsche passed judgement on himself in this most self-consciously funny of all his many playful masterpieces - the one in which he consecrates Laughter itself as the Holiest of Holies... A celebration of wit, comedy, philosophy, and high-spirits, the Last Temptation of Zarathustra is rendered here for the very first time as a rapturous playscript, and in English idiom sparkling with the wit and winged-feet of the Master's original. Thus, too, for the very first time the English-speaker will come away with a real feel for this masterpiece of comic self-consciousness: laughing, and tempted to pronounce Zarathustra himself Holy - and even Holier than a cow. "What luck! What a wonder! Praised be the day that lured me into this swamp! Praised be the best blood-pumping brain-drainer alive today! Praised be the great leech-of-conscience himself: Zarathustra!"

Autorenporträt
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, born on October 15, 1844, in Röcken, Prussia, was a German philosopher and classical philologist whose ideas profoundly influenced modern intellectual history. At 24, he became the youngest individual to hold the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel in Switzerland. However, due to persistent health issues, he resigned in 1879 and dedicated the next decade to his philosophical writings.Nietzsche's work is characterized by a radical critique of traditional values and a deep exploration of human existence. He introduced influential concepts such as the ""will to power,"" the ""Übermensch,"" and the proclamation that ""God is dead,"" challenging the foundations of religion, morality, and culture. His distinctive style, marked by aphorisms and irony, set his writings apart from those of his contemporaries.In 1889, Nietzsche suffered a mental collapse, leading to a complete loss of his cognitive faculties, likely due to vascular dementia. He spent his remaining years under the care of his mother and later his sister, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche, until his death on August 25, 1900, in Weimar, Germany. Posthumously, his sister edited and published his works, sometimes controversially, influencing the interpretation and reception of his philosophy.
