She discusses his writings and such biographical events as his break with Wagner, attempting to ferret out the man in the midst of his works. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Salom 's provocative conclusion -- that Nietzsche's madness was the inevitable result of his philosophical views -- generated considerable controversy. Nietzsche's sister, Elisabeth F rster-Nietzsche, dismissed the book as a work of fantasy. Yet the philosopher's longtime acquaintance Erwin Rohde wrote, \"Nothing better or more deeply experienced or perceived has ever been written about Nietzsche.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Siegfried Mandel's extensive introduction examines the circumstances that brought Lou Salom  and Nietzsche together and the ideological conflicts that drove them apart. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Illinois Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/16\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780252070358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.66lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.71h x 4.95w x 0.88d","brand":"Lou Salome, Siegfried Mandel","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36635333296284,"sku":"9780252070358","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_976f7f33-b2b6-4c6b-a53d-9e87f4b71f15.jpg?v=1603839240","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/nietzsche-9780252070358","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
