Description

This series of apothegms, put into the mouth of the Persian sage Zarathusan or Zoraster, contain the kernel of Nietzche's original thought. In it he states that "God is dead" and that Christianity is decadent and leads mankind into a slave morality concerned with the next life rather than this. "Ubermensch" or superman with a "will to power" who would dare to be impulsive an be the creator of a new heroic morality which would set him apart from "the herd".
