The Joyous/Gay Science by Friedrich Nietzsche

Description

The Joyous/Gay Science by Friedrich Nietzsche

“[This book] mirrors all of Nietzsche’s thought and could be related in hundreds of ways to his other books, his notes, and his letters. And yet it is complete in itself. For it is a work of art.” ?Walter Kaufmann in the Introduction

Nietzsche called?The Gay Science?”the most personal of all my books.” It was here that he first proclaimed the death of God?to which a large part of the book is devoted?and his doctrine of the eternal recurrence.
