Discussing Beyond Good and Evil, Morality, and The Will to Power

July 27, 2020 14:01 - 1 hour - 62.5 MB

To Good and Evil, And Beyond! join us for a conversation on Friedrich Nietzsche's life and his philosophy. We discuss the master morality of the Ubermench and question the Will to Power as well as the idea of selfishness vs. selflessness. With over an hour of talking it still feels like we've only just scratched the surface of this book but the 'surface' of a Nietzsche book is still twice as dense as your average classic literature.
