About this product

Product Information

Abbey presents a close study of Nietzsche's works Human, All Too Human; Daybreak; and The Gay Science. Although these middle period works tend to be neglected in commentaries on Nietzsche, they repay close attention. Abbey's study of Nietzsche's middle period paints a vastly different portrait of the philosopher: a careful, sensitive analyst of moral life. This work fills a serious gap in the literature on Nietzsche.

Reviews
"Abbey's aim to defend the distinctiveness, as well as the " superior worth," of this neglected phase of Nietzsche's development, and thereby take the first steps toward a "genealogical inquiry" into the "choices Nietzsche made across the course of his writing career"(p.156). Abbey initiates this inquiry in a spirit of competent cross-examination. Her approach is logical, her Nietzsche liberal in outlook...I Profiled from Abbey's synthesis of themes in the middle writings and since I have spent more time with Nietzsche's later works, I value the correction she seeks in Nietzsche scholarship. My favorite chapters-"Equal Among Firsts" and "We Children of the Enlightened"--concern friendship and science. The friendship chapter exhibits Nietzsche's genuine insight on this classical theme, and it is strengthened by its use of his letters."--The Review of Metaphysics, Abbey assembles an impressive array of passages from the writings and discusses the issues with insight and verve ... an informative and well-argued account of the emergence of Nietzche's distinctive approach to morals in these years. The discussion is marked by lively interpretation and good critical argument., "Abbey's aim to defend the distinctiveness, as well as the " superior worth," of this neglected phase of Nietzsche's development, and thereby take the first steps toward a "genealogical inquiry" into the "choices Nietzsche made across the course of his writing career"(p.156).
