Convinced that \"style must live,\" he focused obsessively on a wide variety of factors that could potentially affect readers' uptake of his work, from the craft of preface writing to punctuation choices to the aesthetics of book jackets. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eNietzsche as Stylist\u003c\/i\u003e traces the emergence of the philosopher's idiosyncratic writing style as he experimented with various rhetorical approaches. Introducing a contextual and historical sensibility to readings of Nietzsche's published and unpublished works - as well as his correspondence, his journal entries, and other documents he interacted with, such as reviews of his work - the book highlights how Nietzsche's style evolved in relation to his life and world. Martine Béland situates his writings within contemporaneous debates about the professionalization of academia: by resisting what he felt was an anti-philosophical climate, Nietzsche developed a synesthetic and performative style, hoping that his philosophical ideas could engage diverse readers in multiple ways. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThrough careful stylistic and contextual analysis, \u003ci\u003eNietzsche as Stylist\u003c\/i\u003e explores how Nietzsche cultivated skills as a rhetorician and a writer to bring philosophy into a wider field of attention, thought, and experience.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Martine Béland\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0228021103\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780228021100\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e McGill-Queen's University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/15\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 246\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2024","brand":"Martine Béland","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48871493894399,"sku":"9780228021100","price":110.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nietzsche-as-stylist-martine-bzsland-9780228021100","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
