Thus Spoke Zarathustra is a philosophical novel by German philosopher
Friedrich Nietzsche, published in four parts between 1883 and 1891. As
one of the most influential works in modern nihilism, the book follows
the life, speeches, and travels of Zarathustra, the originator of
Zoroastrianism. Thus Spoke Zarathustra argues man should seek to perfect
himself during his life on earth, surpassing societal standards of
morality and goodness. The ideal is - man transforming himself into the
“Übermensch,” a more evolved, superhuman-like state of being. Thus Spoke
Zarathustra argues every man should follow his own path not dictated by
societal conventions. This work is fundamental in guiding
existentialist thought and the study of modern philosophy.
