Few philosophers are as widely read or as widely misunderstood as Friedrich Nietzsche. When Danto's classic study was first published in 1965, many regarded Nietzsche as a brilliant but somewhat erratic thinker. Danto, however, presented a radically different picture, arguing that Nietzsche offered a systematic and coherent philosophy that anticipated many of the questions that...(展开全部)

This classic is the benchmark against which all modern books about Nietzsche are measured. When Walter Kaufmann wrote it in the immediate aftermath of World War II, most scholars outside Germany viewed Nietzsche as part madman, part proto-Nazi, and almost wholly unphilosophical. Kaufmann rehabilitated Nietzsche nearly single-handedly, presenting his works as one of the great ac...(展开全部)

亚历山大•内哈马斯（Alexander Nehamas, 1946—），美国著名学者、教授，1990年起任教于普林斯顿大学，教授哲学和比较文学课程。他的研究兴趣广泛，包括古希腊哲学、艺术哲学、文学理论等。《尼采：生命之为文学》一书为他带来广泛的声誉，该书深入考察了尼采著作中的矛盾并致力于解决这些矛盾，认为尼采写作的目的是为了构建一个承载其价值观的文学形象。近年来，他提倡哲学应当为人们提供某种生活方式，这使他拥有更高的知名度。他的其他代表作品有《生活的艺术》（The Art of Living: Socratic Reflections from Plato to Foucault）、《真之美》（Virtues of Authenticity: Essays on Plato and Socrates）、《幸福的承诺》（Only a Promise o...(展开全部)

More than eighty years after his death, Nietzsche’s writings and his career remain disquieting, disturbing, obscure. His most famous views—the will to power, the eternal recurrence, the Übermensch, the master morality—often seem incomprehensible or, worse, repugnant. Yet he remains a thinker of singular importance, a great opponent of Hegel and Kant, and the source of much that...(展开全部)

约翰·罗尔斯，美国哲学家与政治理论家，1921年出生于巴尔的摩，1950年获普林斯顿大学博士学位，先后执教于普林斯顿大学、康奈尔大学、麻省理工学院和哈佛大学，担任过美国政治与社会哲学家协会主席以及美国哲学协会东部地区主席，并荣获1999年度美国国家人文科学奖章。罗尔斯的哲学捍卫了洛克、卢梭和康德所开创的社会契约传统，复活了人们对于系统政治理论的兴趣，其核心信念是政治权利与基本公民自由的神圣性。他的主要著作还有《正义论》（1971）、《人民的法律》（1999）和《作为公平的正义》（2001）等。 本书继续并修正了罗尔斯在《正义论》中所提出的公正观念，从根本上改变了对它的哲学阐释。在《正义论》中，罗尔斯假定在“秩序良好的社会”里，存在着相对稳定和同质的基本道德信念，人们对于什么是善的生活有着广泛一致意见。然而在现代民主社会中，互不相容、无法调和的宗教、...(展开全部)
