Opis

A penetrating study of the sister who betrayed and endangered her famous brother's legacyIn 1901, a year after her brother Friedrich's death, Elisabeth Forster-Nietzsche published "The Will to Power, " a hasty compilation of writings he had never intended for print. In "Nietzsche's Sister and the Will to Power, " Carol Diethe contends that Forster-Nietzsche's own will to power and her desire to place herself--not her brother--at the center of cultural life in Germany are centrally responsible for Nietzsche's reputation as a belligerent and proto-Fascist thinker.Offering a new look at Nietzsche's sister from a feminist perspective, this spirited and erudite biography examines why Elisabeth Forster-Nietzsche recklessly consorted with anti-Semites, from her own husband to Hitler himself, out of convenience and a desire for revenge against a brother whose love for her waned after she caused the collapse of his friendship with Lou Salome. The book also examines their family dynamics, Nietzsche's dismissal of his sister's early writing career, and the effects of limited education on intelligent women. Diethe concludes by detailing Forster-Nietzsche's brief marriage and her subsequent colonial venture in Paraguay, maintaining that her sporadic anti-Semitism was, like most things in her life, an expedient tool for cultivating personal success and status."A volume in the series International Nietzsche Studies, edited by Richard Schacht"
