Description

Daniel Conway guides you through one of the most clearly developed statements of Nietzsche's mature philosophy, section by section. Adopting an interpretative approach throughout, Daniel Conway treats Beyond Good and Evil as a coherent, unified and carefully crafted complete text. When treated this way, the text reveals itself as a guide to the education that Nietzsche prescribes for his best readers, at the brink of the new post-moral era. Conway makes sense of the overarching aims and structure of the book at the same time as providing a broader context for the arguments Nietzsche makes and the positions he stakes out. Requiring no prior knowledge of the text or of Nietzsche, he guides you through the text with the reward of a more developed reading of the distinctly political agenda that emerges in the second half.
