The Last Temptation of Zarathustra

<p><strong>Faithful rendition of Nietzsche's Also Sprach Zarathustra Part lV in English playscript adaptation. Includes stage directions and original German text in a beautiful Fraktur font.</strong></p><p><em>You are good O Zarathustra and even better than a cow</em></p><p>...thus Nietzsche passed judgement on himself in this most self-consciously funny of all his many playful masterpieces - the one in which he consecrates Laughter itself as the Holiest of Holies...</p><p>A celebration of wit comedy philosophy and high-spirits <em>the Last Temptation of Zarathustra</em> is rendered here for the very first time as a rapturous playscript and in English idiom sparkling with the wit and winged-feet of the Master's original. Thus too for the very first time the English-speaker will come away with a real feel for this masterpiece of comic self-consciousness: laughing and tempted to pronounce Zarathustra himself Holy - and even Holier than a cow.</p><p><em>What luck! What a wonder! Praised be the day that lured me into this swamp! Praised be the best blood-pumping brain-drainer alive today! Praised be the great leech-of-conscience himself: Zarathustra! </em></p>
