Description
Friedrich Nietzsche's 1895 work is a provocative polemic against institutionalized Christianity. Originally written in 1888, its publication was delayed due to controversy surrounding its content. The German title "Der Antichrist" translates to both "The Anti-Christ" and "The Anti-Christian", but the book itself targets the established Christian institutions rather than Christ himself. This challenging work remains a significant contribution to Nietzsche's philosophical oeuvre. With 106 pages, this paperback edition presents an accessible introduction to Nietzsche's ideas on ethics, metaphysics, and the role of Christianity in modern society.
