Synopsis "Thus Spoke Zarathustra"

Friedrich Nietzsche's most accessible and influential philosophical work, misquoted, misrepresented, brilliantly original and enormously influential Nietzsche was one of the most revolutionary and subversive thinkers in Western philosophy, and Thus Spoke Zarathustra remains his most famous and influential work. It describes how the ancient Persian prophet Zarathustra descends from his solitude in the mountains to tell the world that God is dead and that the Superman, the human embodiment of divinity, is his successor. Nietzsche's utterance 'God is dead', his insistence that the meaning of life is to be found in purely human terms, and his doctrine of the Superman and the will to power were all later seized upon and unrecognisably twisted by, among others, Nazi intellectuals. With blazing intensity and poetic brilliance, Nietzsche argues that the meaning of existence is not to be found in religious pieties or meek submission to authority, but in an all-powerful life force: passionate, chaotic and free.

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (15 de octubre de 1844-Weimar, 25 de agosto de 1900) fue un filósofo, poeta, músico y filólogo alemán, cuya obra ha ejercido una profunda influencia en el pensamiento mundial contemporáneo y en la cultura occidental.
Nietzsche escribió sobre temas tan diversos como el arte, la filología, la música, la historia, la religión, la ciencia o la tragedia. Hizo una crítica de la cultura, la religión y la filosofía occidental mediante la genealogía de los conceptos que las integran, basada en el análisis de las actitudes morales (positivas y negativas) hacia la vida.
Es sumamente destacable la influencia que ejerció sobre Nietzsche el filósofo también alemán Arthur Schopenhauer, a quien consideró su maestro, si bien es cierto que no siguió de manera dogmática las ideas de este último, y en muchos aspectos se aleja de su pensamiento llegando incluso a realizar una crítica radical de sus ideas filosóficas.
