The Nietzsche Library

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche

Details

The Nietzsche Library is not a refuge for the weary, but a summons to the heights. Here the books are read in full, without dilution, so that each listener may encounter the philosopher directly: his fire, his music, his hammer blows against complacency. This is a podcast for those who would not merely study Nietzsche, but risk hearing him.
