Friedrich Nietzsche

Friedrich Nietzsche, a German philosopher, began his career as Chair of Classical Philology at a German university when he was only 24 years old. He discussed his “death of God” theology in particular, which was first mentioned in his written works in 1882. He also talked about other radical perspectivist ideas. Nietzsche had serious health issues that necessitated constant care from his mother and, later, his sister. His sister was discovered to have been editing his unpublished papers, changing their meaning to meet her own and contradicting his.
