Description and Table of Contents
Description
The Anti-Christ, although written in 1888, was not published until 1895. It is one of the most notorious, if not the most notorious, books by Nietzsche and one of his most frequently misrepresented. The main cause for scandal has been its expression of a virulent anti-religious and specifically anti-Christian stance. Precisely this aspect makes a reconsideration of this work timely, not to say urgent.Presupposing no prior knowledge of Nietzsche or the text, nor assuming you are familiar with Christian beliefs or doctrines, Paul Bishop contextualises The Anti-Christ within Nietzsche's work as a whole and carefully guides you through some of the difficulties dealing with Nietzsche's rhetoric.
