Publisher Notting Hill - Thus Spake Zarathustra - Michael Hulse

Description:    

In Thus Spake Zarathustra, Nietzsche conducts his protagonist through his great journey of life-the quest for meaning, and fulfillment, and for a way to live with the knowledge of death. In this faithful new translation by Michael Hulse, Zarathustra is revealed in all his bold and ironic splendor, as a man who strives to find a way to live-joyfully-in a secular world. Luminous and ecstatic, Thus Spake Zarathustra is a grand celebration of perilous, beautiful, human life by one of the most important philosophers in history.

A new translation of Nietzsche's seminal work by a prize-winning translator of W. G. Sebald, Goethe, Rilke, Herta Mu?ller, and Elfriede Jelinek.

In Thus Spake Zarathustra, Nietzsche's infamous protagonist sets off on a grand and noble quest to find meaning in a secular world and to live joyfully alongside the knowledge of death.

In this new translation by Michael Hulse-the first in English by a poet-Zarathustra is revealed in all his bold and ironic splendor as a man who prizes self-worth above all else as a moral code to live by.

Radical, uncategorizable, contradictory, and often humorous, Thus Spake Zarathustra is a grand celebration of human existence by one of the most influential thinkers of the past two centuries.
