The Will to Power (Friedrich Nietzsche)

[Batavia]

Since 1901, various compilations of the philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's posthumous notes, some of which differ significantly, have been published under the title The Will to Power (Der Wille zur Macht). In Germany, what is usually meant is a writing first published in 1906 by Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche and Heinrich Köselitz ("Peter Gast"), which was also included in Nietzsche editions and praised as Nietzsche's main systematic work.
There are at least five different compilations released under the title The Will to Power. It is a collection of aphorisms.

The interpretation of the idea of ​​the Will to Power is highly controversial. According to Nietzsche, it is a Dionysian affirmation of the eternal cycles of life and death, emergence and decay, pleasure and pain, a primal force that keeps the "wheel of being" in motion.
I like this quote: "Only where there is life, there is also will: but not will to live, but - as I teach you - will to power!"

The normal output has arround 720 pages and is in my opinion the best work of Nietzsche.
