Description: Friedrich Nietzsche by H.L. Mencken Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description The decisive influence of Friedrich Nietzsche on H Publisher Description The decisive influence of Friedrich Nietzsche on H.L. Mencken is readily acknowledged in the vast literature on the great American journalist and social critic. However, Menckens 1908 study of the philosopher has been relegated to footnote status by Menckens critics and biographers and has been largely ignored by Nietzsche scholars. There are good reasons for reversing this judgment. Menckens work was one of the first comprehensive and sympathetic treatments of Nietzsches thought in the English language. It is a provocative engagement with the German philosophers complex and elusive ideas, enhanced by a style that reverberates with a verve and dynamism approaching Nietzsches own.Mencken presents a view of Nietzsche that elucidates the latters complex and contentious form of the "gospel of individualism" while evincing a keen appreciation of his unrivalled capacity for critical analysis. The historical scope of Nietzsches thought is fully evident in Menckens analysis as is its application to modern societies and politics. In tracing the biographical and intellectual impetus for Nietzsches relentless attacks on conventional moralities and established modes of thought, Mencken discerned both an ideal and a method for grappling with social and cultural issues that remain salient in our own time. Author Biography H. L. Mencken (1880-1956) was an American journalist and author. Skilled in satire, he was famous for the pungent criticism he aimed at all complacent attitudes and for his vigorous attacks on the shams and stuffiness of his day. Among his works are Ventures into Verse, Treatise on the Gods, and his autobiography Happy Days. Details ISBN 1560006498 ISBN-13 9781560006497 Title Friedrich Nietzsche Author H.L.
