It was first published in 1886.</p><p>In Beyond Good and Evil, Nietzsche accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically, he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man, rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man.</p><p>The work moves into the realm "<em>beyond good and evil</em>" in the sense of leaving behind the traditional morality which Nietzsche subjects to a destructive critique in favour of what he regards as an affirmative approach that fearlessly confronts the perspectivalnature of knowledge and the perilous condition of the modern individual.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"I obviously do everything to be "hard to understand" myself"</p><p>"One loves ultimately one's desires, not the thing desired."</p><p>"The text has disappeared under the interpretation."</p><p>"Objection, evasion, joyous distrust, and love of irony are signs of health; everything absolute belongs to pathology."</p><p>"One must shed the bad taste of wanting to agree with many. "Good" is no longer good when one's neighbor mouths it. And how should there be a "common good"! The term contradicts itself: whatever can be common always has little value. In the end it must be as it is and always has been: great things remain for the great, abysses for the profound, nuances and shudders for the refined, and, in brief, all that is rare for the rare."</p><p>"Madness is something rare in individuals -- but in groups, parties, peoples, and ages, it is the rule."</p><p><em> ― Friedrich Nietzsche, Beyond Good and Evil</em></p><br>
