"All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." -Friedrich Nietzsche
weather weapons on North Carolina , JOE BIDEN DEMILE, but we used them in Vietnam war so they exist, used them on Iraq got a 1000 year storm that flooded the city, so soon comes " yes we have them" but would never use them on political citizens, then, we are gt to investigate to get to the bottom of this,,, and that's the cover up. 😮
Misattributed quote. The way it appears in this famous quote is from Gordon Allport (originator of the likely flawed contact theory). The way Nietzsche describes it: "Man, the bravest animal and most prone to suffer, does not deny suffering as such: he wills it, he even seeks it out, provided he is shown a meaning for it, a purpose of suffering.”
Thank you to Ruben Crow for his narration. I love his voice and he was absolutely central to this film presenting the life and work of Friedrich Nietsche. Thank you also to all others who worked to create this wonderful introduction to, and overview of, Nietsche. What I notice most about this thinker is his indomitable spirit of creative work. He just never stopped! Talk about the energy of the universe having been fulfilled in that man's lifetime!
This was great. I've only known snippets or time-shots of this work. Now I realize there was quite the evolution of his writings and views which are much deeper and complex than I had been taught. I recognize that there is a fair bit of Nietzsche in myself.
The french postmodern philosphers in the second half of the 20th century resurrected Nietzsche after he was blamed for Nazism due to poor German scholarship in the interwar years. They created some amazing books and Nietzscheanism is very much alive in academic philosophy today because of it. Some legendary books I'd recommend: "Nietzsche and Philosphy"- Gilles Deleuze, "Nietzsche and the Vicious Circle" - Pierre Klossowki, and "On Nietzsche" - Georges Bataille You have no idea what kind of treasure I just hooked you up with. Life changing shit
Steppenwolf and Siddhartha by Herman Hesse. Beyond being just brilliant. These two books pulled the double barrel out. Unlike your recommended books, which are brilliant, though studies, not stories. Hesse makes the ideas come alive.
Thank you. I tried to read Beyond Good and Evil ages ago. I only remember him saying Kant could not be taken seriously because Kant believed in God. Here I am almost 70, and I totally agree just from the last couple of years of thinking about it.
@@noname-by3qz Deleuze also wrote a book on Kant (as well as the amazing Nietzsche book i mentioned above) and Deleuzes philosophy is imo the best of the 20th century. Def check it out he has plenty to say about Kant and Nietzsche and Kant's "God". Def worth checking out because it could expand on the thoughts you are having about Nietzsche/Kant
Thank you, I'm just restarting my life after years of depression because of autism. I hope that I'll find some meaning in the books / suffering of life..

The more I dive personally intro Kant the clearer it becomes that the stability of Europe at the time and the ideologies that the Prussian regime had at the time heavily influenced his perception on reality, making a lot of his writings not really adaptable to circumstance.
Ok but they also philosophise to promote their ideology so how can you separate the true pursuit of enlightenment and the ideological chains seeking to capture? To paraphrase, “man is born free but is everywhere in chains”, which ushered in the post modernist scourge, which we are Co fronted with today big time! Philosophy is both liberating and enslaving in equal measure, like most things, which is just human nature… Alas less than 30% can spot the liars and snake oil salesmen, which is why Professor Matthias Desmet found that only 30% can resist mass formation, as recently proved during Covid 19 and again with climate alarmism…
@claudioabado3317 Nietzshe was busy developing his own myth. The superman. The Overman. Beyond good and etc. He could hardly blame the Prussians and later Nazi thinkers from taking him seriously. Though he might have been appalled at the results. Ideas have consequences. I spent my days with his writings long ago, in another time, another galaxy configuration. Lol.
Thank you. I really enjoyed this as I'm fascinated by Nietzche's thinking. I thought that he had taken his own life due to his fragile mental state and had not died of a heart attack as is stated here.
A superb job, guys. An authoritative bio/doc that does not sacrifice complexity to concision. Very well done. “It is expedient in every age that one man should stand at the gate of history and demand an accounting.” This man was neither all-seeing nor all-knowing; indeed there are enormous contradictions within his own doctrine. His work stands as a kind of prologue to the 20th century, a status he foresaw. He presents us with neither consistency nor certainty, but only with this imperative - that we think, boldly and intrusively. That is his legacy. That is why the name of Nietzsche remains the lodestone of the modern psyche.
We should always remember that most of what is considered his best was produced during a time when he was completely supported by others. Any working man should think that through hard. What could anyone do if they had no 40-60 hours a week to slog through. Look around, trust fund babies living a parasitic life. Always look at how the man who is telling you how to live your life, lives theirs.
@JeffMelland you either didn't understand his point or you're just purposely being a dick by being obtuse. Enjoying a painting and being weary of someone's advice aren't even in the same ballpark.
Yeah and a nutcase. You losers say you search for truth by reading works of a psycho. What does that say about you? How deranged and idiotic you truth slaves are. There is no truth. You ain't special nobody is. Dam people are fucking dumb.
Yes, until you discover that all that nonsense took a hundred thousand years. And that all those fools really did nothing worthwhile, besides the bull shit they are famous for. The worst thing is, all those aggressive lunatics got millions of people supporting the madness. Get real, the misery never stopped! It is not fascinating at all, half the time it was fascist and nothing else.
The only thing about thinking and ideas, is that if they are not put into action, they are impotent. And, that action usually means violence and much of it to achieve the success of the thinking/idea; or the alleviation of the tyranny that's preventing it.

I find the lives and biographies of thinkers to be much more intetesting than those of kings and conquerers. There, I fixed your stupidity, though you are still left with a shallow mind.
I’m only 1:49 into this video, yet, I feel compelled to comment, for it is my opinion that few have been as misunderstood, and misrepresented as Nietzsche. Another reason, he wasn’t just a genius of the West, he suffered greatly, and still managed to soldier on with his writing in such a brief time. I’m a Christian existentialist, if you want to know how I roughly categorize myself, and, obviously, I don’t agree with his view of Judaic and Christian morality, but I love him. His depth of soul.... 🦅🐍🎶
Ah yes, Proverbs. God gave you a mind, and yet you willingly choose to believe in a God that lets children die. Oh wait, he has a divine plan! I mean, c'mon, you don't have to be a Philosopher to realize how wishywashy that circular logic of Goddidit is. Since we're dishing out Proverbs: "The way of a fool is right in his own eyes, but a wise man listens to advice."
I don't generally agree with Nietzche's views, but so aspects I partly agree with, and, I respect his mind. His books are enjoyable to read and think on. Thinking about views that you don't agree with is a good challenge imo.
Sorry to see that his last book written while he was incarcerated, is not mentioned. His sister disowned it as his, because it was about his relationship with her. He gave it to a friend who visited him, otherwise we’d never have heard of it. I read it years ago - My Sister and I Excellent book.
@@claudioabado3317 As far as we know; also the syphilis whist credible is also speculation since he seems to have been almost celibate for most of his life.
Edgar Cayce said that the soul of Jeshua had been the father and teacher of Zoroaster in another incarnation. IMHO Nietzsche was guilty of many of the same problems he accused others of having. Playing God is a losing game.
This was quite good. Thank you. I've always been curious about Nietzsche but not enough to actually read him. I've heard how the nazis misused and twisted his philosophy and I've heard that he was an intellectual monster. After your biography here I think he was a brilliant egotist anti-christian. A hateful man really. Perhaps even a psychopath. I'm glad I never wasted my time trying to read his works.
I love Nietzche!!! ❤ a true independent thinker, challenger of all you have been indoctrinated into believing … I love the challenge !! I’m 70 I wish I had heard of his great philosophy way before now .. I think that President Trump is an Overman !! I would aspire to be such !!
People’s Profiles You asked what do I think of Frederick Nietzsche? Well I think the reason Nietzsche was an atheist is because he may have had a lot of problems growing up. Because it would be very hard I’m sure to be the son of a Lutheran priest. All I’m trying to say is I don’t think Nietzsche was a bad guy. I just think he was very misunderstood.
A concise summary of Nietzsche can be arrived at by recognizing that life is lived in defence of the persona. And we might not recognize our own railway-era parochialism in the substance of endeavours.
I read the book Beyond good and evil two times. Unfortunately, I have zero understanding of the content. I blame the language used in English for that book. Because it is written with bad grammar and long sentences. I hope other publications will come out with good grammar and short sentences that explain the content of the book. Best regards
In my perspective about suffering, pain, anger. From a Stoicism point of view: control, Ego, creates suffering, pain. Trying to control life, trying to control people, trying to control a situation creates suffering. The lack of understanding, the lack of information, knowledge, causes the person to generate hello in their heads. I respect belief systems, true faith is to believe in the invisible forcé, to feel it. Your faith, is within yourself. Through history, control, Ego , the ambition to power creates destruction, language is manipulated: Its a destructive force. Amor fati, to love a person, to love life, we have to love it with both aspects: positive and negative- Love the whole, love entirely, accept it entirely. We lie to ourselves If we only want the positive aspects: Everything has positive and negative aspects, and makes the harmony, the balances. We have to love life and dont try to control or think we know Everything or we can tell life how things should be done. As well as we dont have to control people, and situation: Allow Freedom, accept the whole, Love the whole. Feed Freedom allowing to feel free to choose, to express.
I think he understood the true Christianity and it’s abused applications and thus ran from it. He was not the contemporary Christian and did not think to spread his version of it. He was smart to see through the hypocrisy.
Nietzche was a master at presenting grand sounding opinions as facts. He was an incredible writer - possibly the greatest of the Germanic Romantic authors. Reading his words is like having honey ecstasy dripped into your mind. Beware.
I kept think about Richard Dawkins. I tend to think that people who become obsessed with attacking religion have a Messiah complex. Which seems to have been the case for Nietzsche? Also, he seems to have been one of those autistic types who can absorb vast amounts of information but struggle to see the wood for the trees. He seemed to vacillate all over the place and contradict himself endlessly. But I’m no philosopher, and found it a bit grandiose and self indulgent in my brief study of it. I’d describe myself as an evolutionary psychologist, which approach makes a lot more sense to me.
nasty bourgeois existential panic. philosophy already had a less cluttered nihilism not limited to liberating a small class at the expense of the majority class.
Nitzsche is a believer of god less so religion , he was a realist and therefore overwhelmingly in reality not the truth . Friedrich you are a true being and friend
Interesting. I think overlooking Overbeck who was maybe the only person on Earth who truly cared about Nietzsche and had a lot to say about him and his unfortunate life is a huge miss in this.
his student carl jung's was great finnish of his work as he came to the conclusion. human being are not master of thier own mind. however respect to nietzsche .his book's very hard to understand .
Neitzsche didnt love his race so much as thinkers as distinguishwd from the heard. He was a creative thinker 100% and his thoughts on the overman were contradicted by his his own inabiliity to be a bridge, a man for more men. He died without progogeny, fully aware of the disease that would consume him. Till his last breath he was a philosopher and a humanist

I love Nietzche!!! ❤ a true independent thinker, challenger of all you have been indoctrinated into believing … I love the challenge !! I’m 70 I wish I had heard of his great philosophy way before now ..
I think that President Trump is an Overman !!
I would aspire to be such !!
People’s Profiles You asked what do I think of Frederick Nietzsche? Well I think the reason Nietzsche was an atheist is because he may have had a lot of problems growing up. Because it would be very hard I’m sure to be the son of a Lutheran priest. All I’m trying to say is I don’t think Nietzsche was a bad guy. I just think he was very misunderstood.
Love that you did this one! Would you consider Aleister Crowley if you will indulge philosophers and libertines such as de sade?
A concise summary of Nietzsche can be arrived at by recognizing that life is lived in defence of the persona. And we might not recognize our own railway-era parochialism in the substance of endeavours.
I read the book Beyond good and evil two times. Unfortunately, I have zero understanding of the content. I blame the language used in English for that book. Because it is written with bad grammar and long sentences. I hope other publications will come out with good grammar and short sentences that explain the content of the book.
Best regards
I have read the first 6 pages of the first chapter of 'Beyond Good and Evil' by Friedrich Nietzsche.
I found it hard going.
How about doing a bio of mehmed the conqueror, would love to see!
Will you ever do a biography of Oswald Spengler???
Spengler was a big fan of Nietzsche AND Goethe.
" World's most famous miserable person".-Mark Twain
Mark TwaIn must have read Nietzsche
What a stupid statement
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂
“The World’s most important miserable.” If i may partially change.
In my perspective about suffering, pain, anger. From a Stoicism point of view: control, Ego, creates suffering, pain. Trying to control life, trying to control people, trying to control a situation creates suffering. The lack of understanding, the lack of information, knowledge, causes the person to generate hello in their heads.
I respect belief systems, true faith is to believe in the invisible forcé, to feel it. Your faith, is within yourself.
Through history, control, Ego , the ambition to power creates destruction, language is manipulated: Its a destructive force.
Amor fati, to love a person, to love life, we have to love it with both aspects: positive and negative- Love the whole, love entirely, accept it entirely. We lie to ourselves If we only want the positive aspects: Everything has positive and negative aspects, and makes the harmony, the balances.
We have to love life and dont try to control or think we know Everything or we can tell life how things should be done. As well as we dont have to control people, and situation: Allow Freedom, accept the whole, Love the whole. Feed Freedom allowing to feel free to choose, to express.
very good but be prepare to wade through the high adverting time I have encountered
I think he understood the true Christianity and it’s abused applications and thus ran from it. He was not the contemporary Christian and did not think to spread his version of it. He was smart to see through the hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy is common in modern religion
27:10 that sounds a lot like Multiple Sclerosis so it was probably neurological in nature. Lyme disease is very similar, too.
'all spiritual battles of the west will be fought on German soil first'
Nietzche was a master at presenting grand sounding opinions as facts.
He was an incredible writer - possibly the greatest of the Germanic Romantic authors.
Reading his words is like having honey ecstasy dripped into your mind.
Beware.
He had a one tracked mind. He enjoyed torturing himself and to what end? 😢 😢 😢
In what part of this documentary does it state that "he enjoyed torturing himself"?
His name echoes in eternity.
Is it any accident thar Russia's mercenary group is named after Wagner?
Could you kindly make a documentary on Arthur Schopenhauer.
Thus Spake Zarathustra is a great poetical work in my opinion.
No normal person ever became an Einstein, Nietzsche etc etc. Genius are born… not made.
Yes, but they need a decent environment and opportunities to thrive.
Simultaneously, far to many who are capable, get left by the wayside.
Argue for your limitations, and sure enough, they’re yours.

@18:22 Nietzsche didn't want to work 20 hr weeks. Why are we on 40's. @52:06 I like his take on comparing Buddhism & Christianity.
I kept think about Richard Dawkins. I tend to think that people who become obsessed with attacking religion have a Messiah complex. Which seems to have been the case for Nietzsche? Also, he seems to have been one of those autistic types who can absorb vast amounts of information but struggle to see the wood for the trees. He seemed to vacillate all over the place and contradict himself endlessly. But I’m no philosopher, and found it a bit grandiose and self indulgent in my brief study of it. I’d describe myself as an evolutionary psychologist, which approach makes a lot more sense to me.
I am amazed at how much he moved around. Thankyou for taking us through his intellectual development.
He didn't understand the importance of a proper diet and vitamins which caused him constant illness and an early death.
V comprehensive
Master Nietzsche
So intelligent I wonder if he ever connect his sufferings to his attacks on God
Great video, thank you very much , note to self(nts) watched …… 1:00:16
nasty bourgeois existential panic. philosophy already had a less cluttered nihilism not limited to liberating a small class at the expense of the majority class.
Nietsche teaches me how toread well.. Kierkegaard teaches how to love.... Both of them know.the truth....
Nitzsche is a believer of god less so religion , he was a realist and therefore overwhelmingly in reality not the truth . Friedrich you are a true being and friend
"His parental grandmother"
I think you mean paternal?
Interesting. I think overlooking Overbeck who was maybe the only person on Earth who truly cared about Nietzsche and had a lot to say about him and his unfortunate life is a huge miss in this.
I would like to learn about German romanticism, Goethe's 'Theory of Colours' and the work of Hegel, Nietzsche and Zizek.
That's what Libraries are for. Free access to millions of books.

Thank You! Agreed! But I am a poor reader.
his student carl jung's was great finnish of his work as he came to the conclusion. human being are not master of thier own mind. however respect to nietzsche .his book's very hard to understand .
Neitzsche didnt love his race so much as thinkers as distinguishwd from the heard. He was a creative thinker 100% and his thoughts on the overman were contradicted by his his own inabiliity to be a bridge, a man for more men. He died without progogeny, fully aware of the disease that would consume him. Till his last breath he was a philosopher and a humanist
The look on Darwins face is that of a man who has seen something
Darwin worked on his ideas 60 hours a week , 7 days a week for 40 years!
I didn't know that Nietsche was so close to Wagner.
Hmm Schopenhauer had a point about human nature and appreciation of nature
12:15 interesting
