Title: Zarathustra contra Zarathustra
First published: 1998
Description: "This study, first published in 1998, makes a lively and welcome contribution to the critical analysis of Nietzsche's seminal classic This Spoke Zarathustra. Through a close textual reading of the neglected and ill-understood part four of the text, the author seeks to show that Nietzsche's project of self-overcoming is a failure. Offering herself as a philosopher-priestess of the wisdom of pessimism, Francesca Cauchi invokes a complex of responses in the reader, providing a necessary challenge to any and all advocates of life."--Provided by publisher.
