Thus Spoke Zarathustra is one of the most extraordinary - and important - texts in Western philosophy. It was written by Friedrich Nietzsche between 1883 and 1885. He cast it in the form of a novel in the hope that his urgent message of the 'death of God' and the rise of the superman (Ubermensch) would have greater emotional as well as intellectual impact.

Who was Friedrich Nietzsche? This lonely and chronically ill, yet passionate, daring, and complex man is perhaps the most mysterious and least understood of all contemporary philosophers. Why are his brilliant insights so relevant for today? How did he become the most misinterpreted and unfairly maligned intellectual figure of the last two centuries?

Ecce homo, "behold the man", are the words Friedrich Nietzsche chose as the title for his literary self-portrait. A main purpose of the book was to offer Nietzsche's own perspective on his work as a philosopher and human being. Ecce Homo also forcefully repudiates those interpretations of his previous works purporting to find support there for imperialism, anti-Semitism, militarism, and Social Darwinism.

Dans la veine de son célèbre Crépuscule des Idoles, ce recueil d'aphorismes qui ne fut jamais achevé par l'auteur—le projet initial fut abandonné en 1888—visait à exposer l'ensemble de sa doctrine dans un ouvrage synthétique. L'existence même de ce livre suscita de vives polémiques et aujourd'hui encore la fiabilité de certains passages reste à prouver, des études philologiques récentes ayant mis à découvert de nombreuses erreurs que n'aurait pu commettre Frédéric Nietzsche.

Alle soglie della follia, Nietzsche sosterrà di aver fatto all'umanità, con lo "Zarathustra", il più grande dono che essa abbia mai avuto: "Questo libro, una voce che passa sui millenni, non solo è il libro più alto che esista [...], ma anche il più profondo, generato dalla più intrinseca ricchezza della verità, una fonte inesauribile dove non si può calare il secchio senza farlo risalire colmo d'oro e di bontà". Perciò Nietzsche gli assegnerà una posizione preminente fra tutti i libri.

Josef Breuer, one of the founding fathers of psychoanalysis, is at the height of his career. Friedrich Nietzsche, Europe's greatest philosopher, is on the brink of suicidal despair, unable to find a cure for the headaches and other ailments that plague him. When he agrees to treat Nietzsche with his experimental "talking cure", Breuer never expects that he, too, will find solace in their sessions. Only through facing his own inner demons can the gifted healer begin to help his patient.

Nietzsche regarded Thus Spoke Zarathustra as his most important work, and his story of the wandering Zarathustra has had enormous influence on subsequent culture. Nietzsche uses a mixture of homilies, parables, epigrams, and dreams to introduce some of his most striking doctrines, including the Overman (Übermensch), nihilism, and the eternal return of the same. This will appeal to all listeners interested in one of the most original and inventive works of modern philosophy. Please note: This audiobook is in Russian.

El Anticristo es una obra que trata de desnudar a la religión cristiana desde el análisis de su historia, sus documentos y sus hechos más notorios. Nietzsche hace una crítica poderosa y potente a los pilares básicos del cristianismo en una obra dividida en capítulos cortos y que van desengranando su idea y sus razonamientos. En la obra también realiza análisis de otras religiones dominantes, sin embargo, es a la cristiana a la que presta más atención.
