UnderworldAmusements
Twilight of the Idols | Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
post image

“Let unholy hands keep aloof from inspired writings, let the laity believe in their old religions and their new philosophies, and let Nietzsche be the philosopher for those only who have to stand alone, but who for this very reason need an example and perhaps a guide more than any other.“ ~Oscar Levy

UnderworldAmusements This booklet contains a sketch of the figures that introduced and often propagandized the German philosopher's work to the Anglosphere. SA1095 of the Union of Egoists' 𝑺𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑨𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒆 journal series. Limited Edition of 66.

Thus Spoke Zarathustra | Friedrich Nietzsche

I went to the recycling centre this morning. Always worth looking in the wheelie bin of books to see if someone is throwing away a gem. I gazed into this last bin in the line…and the bin gazed also into me!

Bookwomble "And if you contend against dustbins, beware that you do not yourself become a dustbin!" I used to have that edition, but it's long since gone - never read it ? Did you liberate it? 5mo
The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble No…as I shuffle towards the great library in the sky, I want to spend my remaining days reading for enjoyment🤣 5mo
Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja Ah, but maybe you should have taken that Vintage copy of Mervyn Peak's Gormenghast trilogy to read later this year 🧐 I would have left the Nietzsche (he's had his chance with me), but I'd have taken the copy of Six Yuan Plays at the back there. Somebody's dumping some good shit in that bin! 5mo

The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble there were 5 bins, filled to the top…I was overwhelmed ☺️ 5mo
Bookwomble @The_Book_Ninja I'd be turning up with a shopping trolley! 😄 5mo
The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble there‘s a lot of crap in there and you have to move fast, they don‘t like salvaging in this centre..😳 I don‘t know if they‘re all like that. The Gormenghast had a badly creased cover. I don‘t mind a old, yellowing book but I can‘t be dealing with creased covers 5mo
Bookwomble Please ignore me - I don't always know when a joke's stopped being funny 🙃 5mo
The_Book_Ninja @Bookwomble Ignore my Litsy twin! 🤣Don‘t worry..I‘ll assume it‘s all jokes unless you use an angry emoji😡 5mo

Easy take on Aristotle and his philosophy. A bit oversimplified, but interesting. It has made me consider looking into some of Aristotle's works.

Difficult to follow in places as the author assumes more background knowledge than I have, but basically what it says on the tin.
