{"product_id":"nietzsche-and-friendship-willow-verkerk-9781350177178","title":"Nietzsche and Friendship","description":"In \u003ci\u003eNietzsche and Friendship\u003c\/i\u003e, Willow Verkerk provides a new and provocative account of Nietzsche's philosophy which identifies him as an agonistic thinker concerned with the topics of love and friendship. She argues that Nietzsche's challenges to the received principles of friendship from Aristotle to Kant offer resources for reinvigorating our thinking about friendship today. Through an examination of his free spirit texts, \u003ci\u003eHuman, All Too Human\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eDaybreak\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Gay Science\u003c\/i\u003e together with \u003ci\u003eThus Spoke Zarathustra\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eBeyond Good and Evil\u003c\/i\u003e, Verkerk unlocks key aspects of Nietzsche's thinking on friendship, love, 'woman', the self, self-overcoming, virtue, and character. She questions Nietzsche's misogyny, but also considers the emancipatory potential of his writing by brining him into dialogue with postmodern, feminist, and transgender thinkers. This book revives interest in the ethical, therapeutic, and political dimensions of Nietzsche's philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Willow Verkerk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350177172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350177178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/19\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 200\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.63lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.42d","brand":"Willow Verkerk","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941911789823,"sku":"9781350177178","price":44.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_d21f80f8-21c5-4774-a604-4e30403d6e19.jpg?v=1681455675","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nietzsche-and-friendship-willow-verkerk-9781350177178","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
