Thus Spoke Zarathustra

A Book for All and None

De: Friedrich Nietzsche, Thomas Common - translator

Narrado por: John Lee

Composed in four parts between 1883 and 1885, Thus Spoke Zarathustra is the most famous and influential work of German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. The work is a philosophical novel in which the character of Zarathustra, a religious prophet-like figure, delivers a series of lessons and sermons in a Biblical style that articulate the central ideas of Nietzsche's mature thought. Key to the philosophy of Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a rejection of traditional systems of religious morality, the idea of the will to power, and a vision of a new, higher mode of being, the ubermensch" or "Superman," one of Nietzsche's most famous and controversial figures. As innovative stylistically as it is philosophically, Thus Spoke Zarathustra is both a literary masterpiece and an enduring classic of moral thought. This version of Thus Spoke Zarathustra is the translation by Thomas Common.

King James English - Hard To Follow

Definitely preview this before embarking. Narrator is great, but the translation is so far from modern it’s really hard to follow at points.

Still, thanks to all involved!

It's Nietzche. What can I say?

It's a classic. I let the words roll over me. I couldn't concentrate on it and drive safely at the same time. He has a low opinion of women, I noticed. Glad I finished it.

Loved the old tale!

Nietzsche in which he shares his superman.
