Nietzsche Wannabe

Name: Anonymous 2008-10-15 10:02

I'm looking for books that will turn me into one.

anything by Ayn Rand. To be a Nietzsche Wannabe you should learn from the best Nietzsche Wannabe.

Hm, I've never read any Nietzsche. He was into objectivism?

I'm not enough of a philosophyfag to consider very deeply how compatible existentialism and objectivism are.

Nietzsche was a retard. If you want to be like him, you already are like him; well done! retard!

As an atheist, reading The Antichrist was enough to make me a Nietzsche wannabe, even though the translation i read was a really shitty one. But if you're religious i wouldn't recommend it, as you would be very offended.

The Hollingdale biography of Nietzsche would be a good place to start. If you just want to get immediately into his writings read them in this order.
 
You can skip Birth of Tragedy, Wagner, and Twilight of the Idols if you want since they aren't crucial to his thought and start immediately with:
1.The Gay Science
2.Beyond Good and Evil
3.Genealogy of Morals
4.Ecce Homo
5.Zarathustra
6.Antichrist

If you are only going to read one book by him I recommend The Gay Science.

>>3 Objectivism didn't exist when Nietzsche was around nor did existentialism.

Don't change these.
