The Antichrist Friedrich Nietzsche

Notes

1. ^ a b Nietzsche, Friedrich. 1990. The Anti-Christ, translated by R. J. Hollingdale, with introduction by M. Tanner. Penguin Books. ISBN 0-14-044514-5. The English word "Christian" is considered a weak noun in German and, in the singular nominative case, it is translated as "der Christ". In German, der antichrist can mean either 'the anti-Christ' or 'the anti-Christian'.
2. ^ a b Kaufmann, Walter. 1974. Nietzsche: Philosopher, Psychologist, Antichrist (4th ed.). Princeton: Princeton University Press. pg. 7: "... in 1888, Nietzsche had abandoned the entire project of The Will to Power. Some previous drafts had called for the subtitle, "Attempt at a Revaluation of All Values"; and Nietzsche, who now proposed to write a different magnum opus, decided on the title Revaluation of All Values—and actually finished the first quarter: the Antichrist... Moreover, the Antichrist, however provocative, represents a more single-minded and sustained inquiry than any of Nietzsche's other books and thus suggests that the major work of which it constitutes Part I was not meant to consist of that maze of incoherent, if extremely interesting, observations which have since been represented as his crowning achievement [i.e., The Will to Power.]"
3. ^ Cf. Nietzsche, The Antichrist:
   • "True life, eternal life is found — it is not promised, it is here, it is within you..." (§ 29).
   • "'The kingdom of God is within you'" (§ 29). This is a reference to Luke 17:21.
   • "The 'kingdom of Heaven' is a condition of the heart..." (§ 34).
   • "The 'kingdom of God' is not something one waits for; it has no yesterday or tomorrow, it does not come 'in a thousand years' — it is an experience within a heart..." (§ 34).
   • "His words to the thief on the cross contain the whole Evangel. 'That was verily a divine man, a child of God' — says the thief. 'If thou feelest this' — answers the redeemer — 'thou art in Paradise...'" (§ 35).
4. ^ From the English translation of The Antichrist as shown on The Nietzsche Channel: "Nietzsche refers to the conversion of one of the two thieves crucified with Jesus, which is only reported in the tale of suffering" by Luke (23: 39–43; cf. Matthew 27:44; Mark 15:31–32). "However, the words which Nietzsche puts into the mouth of the thief are those of the captain after Christ's death" (cf. Luke 23:47; Matthew. 27:54; Mark 15:39). "Perhaps the Nietzsche-Archive didn't want to see the 'cohesiveness of the Bible' disputed by Nietzsche, hence the suppression of this part" (cf. Hofmiller, Josef. November 1931. Nietzsche, 'Süddeutsche Monatshefte'. p. 94ff).
5. ^ Nietzsche, Friedrich. [1901] 1968. Will to Power, edited by Walter Kaufmann. Vintage Books. §162:

   "When even the criminal undergoing a painful death declares: 'the way this Jesus suffers and dies, without rebelling, without enmity, graciously, resignedly, is the only right way,' he has affirmed the gospel: and with that he is in Paradise—"
