Human, All Too Human - Friedrich Nietzsche

Penguin Classics Edition Book Cover

Reasoning

I wanted to see if there was any noticable differences between this book and the others I've read, as this was written 4 years before the Gay Science. Having seen the difference between The Antichrist and the other books I've read so far, I feel like I may find things in Human, All Too Human that I missed in the other books.

I read an online copy of this book rather than a physical copy, as I'd decided to read it quite suddenly, and didn't want to wait for the book to arrive in the post. This is the copy I read.

What I Gained

I was a bit disappointed by the lack of differences between Human, All Too Human and other books, I found it covered the same topics, but often in a less cryptic way, which is to be expected given Nietzsche had at least 4 years more thought go into the other books. I did however find a few passages which supplement previous quotes I've found well, and so it's been useful for this reason.

Next Steps

There were numerous references to Schopenhauer in this book, a philosopher who clearly influenced Nietzsche, so I want to read some of his work to see how he was influenced.
