About Friedrich Nietzche

Nietzche was a German Philosopher, poet and composer. He was born in Rocken the 15th of October in 1844 and he died the 25th of Agost 1900 in Weimar. He is known for writing several critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy and science, displaying a fondness for metaphor, irony and aphorism. Among their best known works are "Ecce Hommo", "Human, all to human", "Thus spoke Zarathustra", "The Antichrist", "On the genealogy of moral", "Beyond good and evil", among others.

Nietzche is important for the contemporary study of the human being. He is considered to be ahead of his time, because the peak of his writing came after his death. He received great acknowledgement during the 20th century, even though he is criticized by other authors due to contradictions in their ideas. However if we accept those ideas we will realize about the variety and wealth that can be found in his proposals and philosophy.

Finally, Nietzche is relevant because through his writing I could question the actions of humanity, the importance of his criticism towards christianism, and how important it is to look beyond good and evil.
