Thus Spoke Zarathustra

I can't say enough good words about the book. Zarathustra casts aside dogmatism, pity, and humanity itself! I think that different people will end up with a different interpretation of the tale and I think that, if you are going to read it, you should do so without seeing other's commentary first to get the full effect.

A Classic.....

This is one of those books filled with those ideas that you've thought all your life but few have the courage to admit, even to themselves. Nietzsche takes a brutally honest look at human nature including the uglier things. He rightly shows no mercy towards clergy and the morality of self negation and pity. All is done in a beautiful, poetic style. The moral of the story is to be above the masses, to go above your limits and to enjoy yourself while doing it. Its a positive philosophy that if implemented can make someone that rare person who rises above the herd and makes their short time on this earth worth it.

Obra maestra

Asi hablo Zaratustra es una obra maestra de la filosofia contemporanea. Jamas he deseado conocer otro idioma (el aleman) tanto como al leer este libro. Esta obra escrita en parabolas, para acentuar su similitud con la Biblia, despliega el pensamiento filosofico de uno de los hombres mas estudiados de la historia, llevada de la mano de una maestria estetica solo comparable con obras como La Divina Comedia de Dante. Zaratustra es la anti-bibila donde convergen las ideas del Dios muerto, la voluntad de poderio y el eterno retorno, base fundamental de la filosofia de Nietzsche. No solo es una gran obra para el que desea leerla con propositos academicos, sino para todo el que mas alla de querer encontrar respuestas sobre la existencia, esta buscando preguntas, esta buscando cuestionarse, abrir los ojos, ante todo lo antes creido.

One of the most important books of the last century

Friedrich Nietzsche was a "failure" in his time. He was branded a nihilist and heretic and his works dismissed as the ramblings of a mad man. After the Great War many philosophers such as Heidegger resurected the works of Nietzsche and Kierkegaard (to name a few) and studied them with greater admiration. We should be thankful that the works of such an imaginative genius such as Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was called into the spotlight. Nietzsche constructed one of the most original and radical philosophies in all its history, as challenging to everyday life as Karl Marx. His ideas still send shockwaves through the Christian community because so much of what he says is blatantly obvious and true. Most people dismiss Nietzsche's slogan that "God is dead", but in this work Nietzsche truly refines this statement and incorporates brilliant ideas about living for the Earth, striving to become Der Ubermensch and the path to release from Christianities chains. The main theme of this book is that which Nietzshce will probably be best remembered for, but for all the wrong reasons. Nietzsche's vision of the "Superman" (der Ubermensch) was an idea that his sister, in co-operation with Hitler, twisted to begin the Nazi experiments for the Superrace. The Superman is at the centre of this book and Nietzsche gives a perfect description of his vision and furthermore what it will incorporate and help to abolish. It soon becomes clear that Nietzsche's Superman is far different from Hitler's, furthermore because it is not as brutal and inhumane and lastly because it centres around completely different principals: HItler wanted a physical Superman, but Nietzsche's Superman would be MENTALLY strong rather than purely physically. THe language in this book is amazing. Whether Walter Kauffman's translation has buttered it up or not is beyond my capacity to comment on, but the poetry (not prose) that Nietzsche uses is comparible to the likes of Shakespeare. The ammount of metaphors that Nietzsche draws is immense, and he beautifully illustrates all his main points without a single drawing. This is a brilliant masterpiece, whether you agree with every point that Nietzsche makes (and few do) you will still be able to appreciate the beautiful poetry. And still, how ever much you may disagree, this book is thought provoking and seems to shake your entire world upside down. It is far more preferal to Anton Scanzor LaVey "interpretation" of the Nietzschean philosophy in "the Satanic Bible" and is a must-read!
