Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest thinkers of the nineteenth century. His work continues to have a significant influence on philosophy, cultural criticism and modern intellectual history.

The Nietzschean Mind seeks to provide a comprehensive survey of his work, not only placing it in its historical context but also exploring its contemporary significance. Comprising twenty-eight chapters by a team of international contributors, the volume is divided into seven parts:

  • Major works

  • Philosophical psychology and agency

  • The self

  • Value

  • Culture, society and politics

  • Metaphysics and epistemology

  • The affirmation of life

    This handbook includes coverage of all major aspects of Nietzsche's thought, including his discussions of value, culture, society, the self, agency, action, philosophical psychology, epistemology and metaphysics; explorations of the philosophical and scientific influences upon Nietzsche's thought; and discussion of Nietzsche's major works.

    Essential reading for students and researchers in philosophy, Nietzsche's work is central to ethics, moral psychology and political philosophy.
