31: The Dangerous, Bloody, Anti-Liberal Nietzsche with Dr. Martin Ruehl
No serious consideration of values can ignore the ideas and philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche, whose writing in the late nineteenth century had a seismic impact on the twentieth century, and continues its enduring influence today.
Dr. Martin Ruehl of Cambridge University grew up with the influence of Nietzsche’s Thus Spoke Zarathustra, finding himself bewitched by a copy of the war edition of the book (kriegsausgabe) that was taken into WWI by his grandfather and then into WWII by his father.
But Ruehl didn’t recognise the version of Nietzsche that was presented to him in academia and has since made it his mission to bring the bloody, dangerous, anti-liberal Nietzsche back into consciousness.
Tune in for a masterclass on the philosophy and significance of Friedrich Nietzsche.
