Product Description

Product Description

A work of Nietzsche's later years, "The Antichrist" was written after "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" and shortly before the mental collapse that incapacitated him for the rest of his life. The work is both an unrestrained attack on Christianity and a further exposition of Nietzsche's will-to-power philosophy so dramatically presented in "Zarathustra".

5.0 out of 5 stars NIETZSCHE: ABOUT ANTIQUITY AND CHRISTIANITY, 20 Oct 2004
By alaskadoggie (Boom (near Antwerp), BELGIUM) - See all my reviews
As to Nietzsche christianity was the cause for the decline of the classic, antique civilisation and the most considerable "promotor" for the herd instinct, the spiritual levelling, for decadence.

The Antichrist (1888, written months before he fell ill to death) contains THE MOST FURIOUS ATTACKS by Nietzsche against christianity. It is as if this criticism that we encounter in all of his writings, has been like a fester in his mind and whole spirit that bursts out here as an incredible, tremendously powerful explosion.
"I BRING YOU THE MOST TERRIBLE DENUNCIATION AGAINST THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH THAT HAS EVER BEEN CHARGED AS ANY ATTORNEY GENERAL EVER HAS DONE. I WILL WRITE DOWN THIS ETERNAL CHARGE AGAINST CHRISTIANITY EVERYWHERE WERE THERE ARE WALLS, I EVEN DISPOSE OF SPECIAL LETTERS TO EVEN MAKE THE BLIND SEE.".

The reason for Nietzsche to do/write so, is because he found christianity, with Paul and the ancient fathers of the christian church in front (NOT the person of "Jesus" as so often misinterpreted!), GUILTY for the decline of the ANTIQUITY. Christianity was the vampire of the IMPERIUM ROMANUM. As the author was a hughe admirer of antiquity, not to say that he saw it as a kind of ideal world, a greater denunciation is indeed hard to think of as to him.

AN ABSOLUTE MUST FOR EVERYONE (sic!!!). Lots of people talk about the book, but have never read it, for different reasons. Some amongst them "HATE" Nietzsche - BUT that is hardly a reason at all, others are afraid the read is too difficult for them. This book is only about 100 pages, has SOME difficult stuff to read on A FEW PAGES - but certainly NOT THE WHOLE WORK!
THIS IS ONE OF THE MASTERPIECES (everyone should have read already) OF NIETZSCHE, WHICH I WARMLY RECOMMEND from the bottom of my whole being: A REAL MUST in which you can see Nietzsche really fulminating on the very highest level (in every way and sense!) ever done. A FANTASTIC BOOK THAT YOU WILL RE-READ.

4.0 out of 5 stars Classic philosophy, 12 Dec 2001
By A Customer
A wonderfully worked argument as to the redundancy of christianity and religion in general. A large number of practical examples are provided, whilst Neitzsche plays the priests at their own game giving theoretical examples as to the absurdity of their preaching. Practical arguments for any aetheist...

5.0 out of 5 stars energetic and powerful, 8 Jan 2004
This short book is perhaps the most successful refutation of Christianity. Nietzsche pulls no punches as he ruthlessly dissembles Christian doctrine and tears to shreds those who dare to be Christian Apologists. The AntiChrist is Nietzsche at his best, and is a must for Christians and non-Christians alike.
