«Así habló Zaratustra» is the philosophical work by Friedrich Nietzsche, published by Libsa Editorial in paperback (327 pages, in Spanish).
Nietzsche gives voice to Zaratustra, a prophet who, after a decade of solitary meditation, comes down from the mountains to share his wisdom. The people, busy with their daily tasks, reject his teachings, so he seeks disciples to raise above mediocre humanity. The work criticises traditional values and proposes the idea of the superman.
Work originally published between 1883 and 1885 by Friedrich Nietzsche. This edition belongs to the Libsa Nietzsche Commemorative Library collection.
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was a German philosopher and writer who started his career as a classical philologist and turned to philosophy early in his academic career. In 1869, at age 24, he was appointed Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel. Plagued by health problems for most of his life, he resigned from the university in 1879. He afterward lived as an independent writer, spending much of his life in relative solitude and financial insecurity while moving between Switzerland, Italy, and southern France in search of climates that might alleviate his condition, and in the following decade, he completed much of his core writing. In 1889, aged 44, he suffered a neurological collapse, and thereafter a complete loss of his mental faculties, with paralysis and vascular dementia; he lived out his remaining 11 years, first under the care of his mother, and later his sister, until his death. His works and his philosophy have fostered not only extensive scholarship but also much popular interest.
