About This Book

Over the past hundred years Friedrich Nietzsche has proved to be one of the most fascinating and influential European thinkers to appear on the American scene. In recent years in particular, Nietzsche's ideas have had an overwhelming impact in every field of the humanities.

Manfred Putz (University of Freiburg) has assembled a collection of essays by well-known American and German scholars, offering for the first time an encompassing survey of American reactions to the German philosopher-writer that ranges from detailed investigations of early responses to the complex contemporary debate over Nietzsche in the fields of literature, history, philosophy, and critical theory.

All essays are original contributions written for this unique volume which is bound to prove indispensable as a reference work for present-day Nietzsche scholarship.
