It was first published in 1886.In Beyond Good and Evil Nietzsche accuses past philosophers of lacking critical sense and blindly accepting dogmatic premises in their consideration of morality. Specifically he accuses them of founding grand metaphysical systems upon the faith that the good man is the opposite of the evil man rather than just a different expression of the same basic impulses that find more direct expression in the evil man. The book is divided into 9 sections that include 296 aphorisms. Written in a critical and witty style the novel throws light upon the diverse aspects of the modern world that include religion morality free spirit power of the will virtues and nobility.The ideas in Beyond Good and Evil should be examined by anyone who has an interest in ethics and they are essential reading for those who would learn about meta-ethics. Even when readers may find Nietzsche to be wrong in their estimate this work still casts light onto areas that seldom otherwise get examined.
