1893823<p>Leipzig: Naumann 1893. Second Edition. Wraps. Very good. Second Edition of Nietzsches Twilight of the Idols in Original Printed Wraps <br /><br />NIETZSCHE Friedrich Götzen-Dämmerung Twilight of the Idols Naumann Leipzig 1893. Half title TP 1 leaf = Inhalt I-II = Vorwort 1-116. Second Edition Krummel XVIII a p. 120. <br /><br />Nietzsche began to write Twilight of the Idols at the end of June of 1888 and was finished by early Septemberanother lightning-quick production that he claimed to have been the "work of so few days that I am hesitant to mention exactly how many." His hesitancy becomes even more understandable when one remembers that part of July was devoted to the preparation of the final typescript of The Case of Wagner and that during August he produced two "Postscripts" and the "Epilogue" and then proofed the entire work. In the final analysiswhen the book was finally completedNietzsche bragged to Gast that "I could hardly have used ten days more efficiently for it certainly took me no longer to write the book." Yet another ten-day wonder! <br /><br />The new book was originally entitled A Psychologist at Leisure when Nietzsche mentioned it to Naumann on 7 September: <br /><br />I am about to give you a nice surprise. You probably think we are finished with printing but even now the cleanest manuscript I have ever sent to you is on its way. Regarding layout and design this new work should be a twin to The Case of Wagner. The title is A Psychologist at Leisure. It is imperative for me that we publish this now because by the end of next year we will have to begin the printing of my main work The Revaluation of All Values which will be a stern and serious book and I will not be able to publish anything cheerful and winsome right after it. <br /><br />This book though not very large may cause a few ears to be opened so that the main work will not be greeted with silence like my Zarathustra. <br /><br />The manuscript was mailed two days later and the single-page first draft for the Preface came three days after that. Nietzsche thought of this bookin conjunction with the Wagner bookas a light and brief respite before the publication of his masterwork: "In the final analysis both of these works are only recuperations in the midst of an immensely difficult and decisive task which when properly understood will split humanity in two." Unfortunately Nietzsche never recovered from these "recuperations" and The Revaluation of All Values was never completed <br /><br />Even as the book was being printed Peter Gast pleaded with Nietzsche to change the title: <br /><br />When I consider how other people will respond to this title I think A Psychologist at Leisure is much too unassuming. You have dragged your artillery to the highest mountains you have guns such as have never existed and even if you shoot blindly you will inspire terror all around. The stride of a Giant which can make the mountains shake to their core is hardly leisure . . . and so I pleadif an incompetent may make such a requestlet us have a more resplendent a more radiant title! <br /><br />Nietzsche immediately agreed and changed the title to Twilight of the Idols75 and three days later he penned the final version of the Preface which was dated 30 September 1888. <br />Schaberg The Nietzsche Canon pp. 166-167 <br /><br />CONDITION: Uncut copy in original wraps printed front and back as well as on the spine. The covers are very lightly chipped and have a 1½ closed tear on the right side near the center of the front cover. The rear cover has five number inked next to the advertisements for Nietzsches books presumably noting their issuing sequence in the then-in-the-press Collected Works. A bit worn but still a lovely affordable and collectible copy of this important work by Nietzsche. <br /><br />PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST</p> Naumann paperback

188961353Leipzig C.G. Naumann 1889. 8vo. Bound in a contemporary red half cloth binding with red marbled paper over boards and single gilt lines. Gilt lettering and a single gilt ornamentation to spine. Lovely patterned irdiscent end-papers in blue with white flowers. Boards slightly faded at top. Front hinge a bit soiled. Spine a bit discoloured and a bit worn at capitals. A few leaves with light scattered brownspotting but overall very clean and fresh. A few minor pencil marks on several pages and some faint brown spots on the final page. 8 144 pp. <br/><br/><em>First edition published in 1889 from Nietzsche's private press of the epitome of Nietzsche's final project -a re-valuation of all values "Eine Umwerthung aller Werthe" -his hugely interesting "declaration of war" preface p. 4: "Diese Schrift ist eine grosse Kriegserklärung" which was written during his last productive year just before his big breakdown in Turin. "Götzen-Dämmerung" "The Twilight of the Idols" arguably constitutes the culmination of the production of this giant of philosophy who turned mad after having finished it.Early in 1889 Nietzsche began to exhibit signs of serious mental illness; in Turin he finally broke down and was brought back to Basel by his friends. "The Twilight of the Idols" was released merely a few weeks after this collapse and Nietzsche never wrote again.Nietzsche had 1.000 copies of the work privately printed. The work is considered one of his most popular and it is here that we find some of the most frequently quoted passages from the works of Nietzsche e.g. "What does not kill me only makes me stronger" p.2.: "Was mich nicht umbringt macht mich stärker".The Twilight was meant as an introduction to or summary of Nietzshe's philosophy and as such it is one of his most interesting works. It is written almost as in a rage of fever - it took him no more than a week to write it - and he regarded it a world-changing magnum opus. As he states at the end of the preface: "Turin am 30. September 1888 am Tage da das erste Buch der Umwerthung aller Werthe zu ende kam." i.e. "Turin on September 30. 1888 on the day that the first book on the re-valuation of all value came to an end.". This highly polemical work makes clear reference to Wagner's opera "Götterdämmerung" and it presents us with a sharp critique of the most influential philosophers in history e.g. Kant and Plato and of Christianity in general but also the likes of Rousseau Hugo Renan Mill Darwin Dante etc. are attacked as the causes of cultural decadence in Europe. Giants like Caesar Napoleon Dostojevski Goethe and Thukydides are considered representatives of the opposite.The mental collapse of the author may not come as a surprise to anyone reading the work.Of the 1.000 copies 659 still remained unsold by October 1893.Twilight of the Idols: Schaberg: 56a </em> hardcover
