Reviews

"“Step by step Meier follows Nietzsche’s last paths of thought, in which the philosopher proves to be the master of his decisions at all times, despite all the apparent shrillness of tone. Meier has an unerring eye for the architecture of Nietzsche's revaluative philosophizing and the structure of his works, and meticulously works out the strategies Nietzsche used to beguile his readers. . . . An exceedingly precise analysis.” -- Andreas Urs Sommer * Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung * “With Nietzsche’s Legacy, Meier presents an exceptionally dense, painstaking, and prudent interpretation of Nietzsche’s late work."" -- Eike Brock * Nietzscheforschung * “Nietzsche’s two last books are routinely dismissed as evidence of his growing mental instability, his megalomania, and they have not traditionally been considered important parts of his corpus. Meier’s book makes that claim impossible to maintain. He has in fact, for the first time, unlocked these books and demonstrated in luxurious detail just how carefully written and central they are to understanding Nietzsche’s view—not only of his accomplishments, but of himself, what it means to be a philosopher, and how he understands his legacy. Meier has rescued these books and brought to light a subtlety and depth of thought never before suspected, much less explored.” -- Robert Pippin | author of ""The Culmination: Heidegger, German Idealism, and the Fate of Philosophy"""
