Nietzsche especially targets what he calls a slave morality that fosters herdlike quiescence and stigmatizes the highest human types.In this pathbreaking work, Nietzsche's philosophical and literary powers are at their height: with devastating irony and flashing wit he gleefully dynamites centuries of accumulated conventional wisdom in metaphysics, morals, and psychology, clearing a path for such twentieth-century innovators as Thomas Mann, André Gide, Sigmund Freud, George Bernard Shaw, André Malraux, and Jean-Paul Sartre, all of whom openly acknowledged their debt to him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePublisher ‏ : ‎ \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eDover Publications \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePublication date ‏ : ‎\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Feb. 2000\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003ePrint length ‏ : ‎ \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003e176 pages\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-list-item\"\u003e \u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eISBN : ‎ \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003e9780486298689\u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Rudolf Steiner Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58547849625984,"sku":"9780486298689","price":5.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0795\/3281\/8754\/files\/BeyondGoodandEvil.jpg?v=1785170184","url":"https:\/\/rudolfsteinerbookshop.co.uk\/products\/beyond-good-and-evil","provider":"Rudolf Steiner Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
