Dionysos against the Crucified…” ~ Ecce Homo Nietzsche’s The Anti-Christ (1888) is the philosopher’s final and perhaps most powerful, detailed, and sustained psychological attack against systematic, institutionalized Christianity – the final assault on what Nietzsche dubbed a decadent form of life-negating beliefs, the ultimate exercise in décadence and ressentiment that robs the superior individual of his strength and creativity. This book offers Nietzsche’s view of the troubled and dangerous psychology of Christianity, develops a unique portrait of Nietzsche’s (or Dionysos’) worthy adversary, Jesus, the Nazarene, the “redeemer,” the “Crucified,” the "bringer of glad tidings," in a manner similar to the portraits of Jesus and his ethical philosophy found in the writings of Jaspers, Tolstoy, Jefferson, and most recently, Mailer. Readers are familiar with many of Nietzsche’s other infamous opponents: Schopenhauer, Wagner, Strauss, and of course, through the protracted engagement or critical confrontation (Auseinandersetzung), Socrates. The values that Christianity embraces and thrusts upon its devotees and believers, through the strict mediation of the cunningly sinister activities of what Nietzsche dubs the priestly caste, stands antithetic to the values Nietzsche embraces – as the “Revaluation of all values!” – linked to the efficacious discharge of the will to power (§62). What is good, bad, and what counts as happiness is defined by Nietzsche, good is: “All that heightens the feeling of power, the will to power,” and happiness lies in the “feeling that power increases that a resistance is overcome,” and all that is bad and of no value, is all that “proceeds from weakness” (§2), all that hinders the efficacious discharge of one’s will to power. Dr. James M. Magrini Former: Philosophy/ College of Dupage NCIS Review: A Well Written Text by a Confused Man - Nietzche, it has been said, is a character in Dostoevsky's world. With this, I agree. Nietzche is an energetic and times insightful writer, who ultimately lacks the self awareness he so desperately needs. By choosing to be so flagrantly disrespectful of Gd, Nietzche, unlike Dostoevsky (who he greatly admired), alienates himself from the clear solution to his dilemma. It's as if Nietzche forcibly, or involuntarily, stops short just before the finish line of true self-actualization, and I don't know if it's spite (Think Underground Man from Notes from Underground), fear, or madness. Be that as it may, Nietzche is a great writer and, if we apply his own view of exercising an acquired taste for ideas that we find wrong, we can see past this tragic lapse of Nietzche's and in so doing, derive pleasure and insight from his offerings. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B002RI945U | | Accessibility | Learn more | | Best Sellers Rank | #369,311 in Kindle Store ( See Top 100 in Kindle Store ) #31 in Modern Western Philosophy #80 in History of Philosophy & Schools of Thought eBooks #167 in Modern Philosophy (Kindle Store) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (546) | | Edition | New e. | | Enhanced typesetting | Enabled | | File size | 4.6 MB | | ISBN-13 | 978-0141904290 | | Language | English | | Page Flip | Enabled | | Print length | 225 pages | | Publication date | January 25, 1990 | | Publisher | Penguin | | Screen Reader | Supported | | Word Wise | Enabled | | X-Ray | Not Enabled | ## Images ![Twilight of Idols and Anti-Christ (Penguin Classics S.) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81JuQ1QS3lL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sustained and powerful historical-psychological critique of Christianity... *by J***I on July 4, 2024* “Have I been understood?
