{"product_id":"nietzsches-gay-science-robert-miner-9781474457705","title":"Nietzsche's Gay Science","description":"\u003cp\u003eFrom philosophy undergraduates showing off in murky bars to Chidi's unforgettable monologue in TV sensation \u003ci\u003eThe Good Place\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe Gay Science\u003c\/i\u003e is one Nietzsche's most-quotable texts. But what do those soundbites actually mean? Robert Miner attends closely to the rhymes and aphorisms that make up Nietzsche's \u003ci\u003eThe Gay Science\u003c\/i\u003e - and make it so appealing yet so frequently misunderstood. Tracking Nietzsche's mixture of subtle argumentation, memorable images and provocative rhetoric, Miner opens up multiple ways of interpreting the text and applying it to our own circumstances. Presupposing no prior knowledge of Nietzsche, Miner begins with the 1882 edition - the first to announce the 'death of God', amor fati and eternal recurrence. He also illuminates the significance of Nietzsche's decision to publish a second edition of \u003ci\u003eThe Gay Science\u003c\/i\u003e in 1887, with a fifth book, 40 aphorisms composed after \u003ci\u003eZarathustra\u003c\/i\u003e, a new preface and an appendix of songs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Miner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1474457703\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781474457705\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Edinburgh University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/22\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.40h x 8.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Robert Miner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43994589888767,"sku":"9781474457705","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2a7cb010-630d-4b60-8e07-ab72c8fbf223.jpg?v=1683331053","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/nietzsches-gay-science-robert-miner-9781474457705","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
