'Anyone who wants to gain a quick idea of how before me everything was topsy-turvy should make a start with this work. That which is called idol on the title-page is quite simply that which was called truth hitherto. Twilight of the Idols - in plain words: the old truth is coming to an end...' Nietzsche intended Twilight of the Idols to serve as a short introduction to his philosophy, and as a result it is the most synoptic of all his books. Continuing in the spirit of its immediate predecessors On The Genealogy of Morals and The Wagner Case, it is a masterpiece of polemic, targeting not only 'eternal idols' like Socratic rationality and Christian morality but also their contemporary counterparts, as Nietzsche the 'untimely man' goes roaming in the gloaming of nineteenth-century European culture. He allies philosophy with psychology and physiology, relentlessly diagnozing the symptoms of decadence, and his stylistic virtuosity is such that the sheer delight he takes in his 'demonic' mischief-making communicates itself on every page. A brilliant new translation, this edition provides detailed commentary on a highly condensed and allusive work.

【按语:《偶像的黄昏——或怎样用锤子从事哲学(Twilight of the Idols or How to Philosophize with a Hammer,1888)》是尼采后期的一部短小精悍的作品。这里,尼采延续了在《悲剧的诞生》中对苏格拉底的攻击,但更为激烈,并延伸到对哲学和道德本身(也是一贯主题):苏格...

诺兰借小丑的台词用尼采的格言定义了尼采,“whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you stranger...”

苏格拉底的问题,尼采对daimonion只字不提,强调reason,dialectic的破坏作用。他是不是觉得daimonion只是苏格拉底的高明托词?为什么他不觉得这是‘本能’的一种呢。
