This vintage book contains Janko Lavrin's 1948 treatise; "Nietzsche - An Approach". Within it Lavrin explores the bond between Nietzsche's personal fate and the general trend of his thought. This fascinating and insightful volume is highly recommended for students of philosophy, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "The Alchemy of Pain", "Out of Season", "The Artifice of Self-Preservation", "Self-Inquisition", "On The Margins of the Superman", "Nietzsche and Religion", "The Twilight of God", "We Immoralists", "Zarathustra's Impasse", "Nietzsche and Erotics", etcetera. Janko Lavrin (1887 - 1986) was a Slovenian poet, critic, novelist, translator, and historian. Many antiquarian texts such as this - particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before - are increasingly hard to come by and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this book now, in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition. It comes complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
