Nietzsche on Ethics and Politics cover

This volume brings together fourteen mostly previously published articles by the prominent Nietzsche scholar Maudemarie Clark. Clark's previous two books on Nietzsche focused on his views on truth, metaphysics, and knowledge, but she has published a great deal on Nietzsche's views on ethics and politics in article form. Putting those articles -- many of which appeared in obscure venues -- together in book form will allow readers to see more easily how her views fit together as a whole, exhibit important developments of her ideas, and highlight Clark's distinctive voice in Nietzsche studies. Clark provides an introduction tying her themes together and placing them in their broader context.

But even today, much of what Clark built stands even above the rising tide of good scholarship that followed its construction, providing solid support for further work. We should all hope that our own research is so good at withstanding the test of time." - Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Online
Perhaps my favorite part of the book is Clark's careful reconsideration of Nietzsche's highest value * the flourishing of community or the outstanding individual? Seasoned Nietzsche scholars will want to add this work to their libraries, but students of this philosopher will also find it a wonderful introduction to the current debates in Nietzsche scholarship. The book is accessible by specialist and lay reader alike." - Metapsychology Online Reviews *
