Friedrich Nietzsche wrote Ecce Homo in 1888, just weeks before his mental collapse, and it was published posthumously in 1908. With chapters titled Why I Am So Wise, Why I Am So Clever, and Why I Write Such Good Books, it is the most outrageously self-assertive autobiography in the history of literature — and also one of the most searching and brilliant. Nietzsche reviews his entire body of work and places himself in relation to the history of European philosophy and culture.
Essential to understanding Nietzsche’s thought, the book is by turns exhilarating, disturbing, and genuinely profound. This free EPUB download presents the complete English translation of this extraordinary final testament.
