On the other side of good and evil. Nietzsche F.

“On the other side of good and evil” (1886) - the stage work of Friedrich Nietzsche, which precedes the final, most intense period of his work, noted by the summarizing of the philosophical results of the previous human history and the foresight of the most important social and spiritual conflicts of the twentieth century. The idea of ​​a superman, formulated in the book “So said Zarathustra,” develops in the new essay of Nietzsche in the form of honed analytical aphorisms, in which acute author’s criticism of modernity is concentrated - its philosophy, science, art, politics and, most importantly, morality. On the pages of this prophetic work, not by chance having a subtitle, the “prelude to the philosophy of the future”, the German thinker predicted both the upcoming decay of European spirituality and the “uprising of the masses” with the subsequent reign of the “upcoming boor”, and the leveling of the person under the flag of the general equality of people, and the grandiose The struggle for world domination, and totalitarianism as a result of the democratization of Europe. The inevitability of these events and phenomena is dictated, according to Nietzsche’s thought, fraught with tyranny by the “morality of slaves”, which is poisoned by his time and over which he calls for the philosophers of the future, which is able, as it seems to him, to become the other side of good and evil.
