«Aurora» is a philosophical essay by Friedrich Nietzsche published by PPP (Poesía y prosa popular) in paperback, in Spanish.
In Aurora, Nietzsche subjects inherited morality and the established values of Western culture to critique, understood as prejudices. The author himself considered this book the starting point of his attack on morality and defended an inversion of values to make way for a new form of thought.
Work originally published in 1881 as Morgenröthe. This Spanish edition belongs to the Poesía y prosa popular collection, number 66, with a preliminary study by Enrique López Castellón.
For philosophy readers interested in Nietzsche's thought and the critique of moral values.
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.
