"Nietzsche's background and the evolution of his thought are discussed, and a detailed exposition of his mature ideas is given, drawing on his own words wherever possible. Demonstrating the nature and extent of Nietzsche's posthumous influence, Mr Hollingdale assesses his relationship with those modern movements in philosophy and politics which have claimed him as a progenitor. He also looks at Nietzsche the poet, philologist, amateur composer and letter writer." - from blurb on rear cover. Series: Routledge Author Guides. .
