Beyond Good and Evil - Friedrich Nietzsche




















Reasoning

I felt like this would be a useful book to read as I've read that it covers the topics of imagination, self-assertion, originality, and creation of values.

What I Gained

I found this book to be very useful in terms of providing me with ideas that could help me link the idea of the overman to the practice of pastiche, as well as some clear criticisms of Christianity, preaching, and preachers, which I can relate to the First Things First Manifesto by comparing them with Nietzsche's reasoning.


Potentially useful quotes:



Next Steps

Having read what I believe to be the three most appropriate of Nietzsche's books for my project (on the basis of the Stanford Encyclopaedia of Philosophy), I want to read Ecce Homo to see what Nietzsche has to say on these particular books.
