Penguin Classics On the Genealogy of Morals: A Polemic, Paperback
Overall, the reception of this particular edition of Friedrich Nietzsche's "Genealogy of Morality" is positive. The introduction by a respected Nietzsche scholar is praised for providing a helpful framework for understanding Nietzsche's often complex text. The extensive scholarly apparatus, including endnotes and biographic and bibliographic details, is also noted as being exhaustive and useful for interpreting Nietzsche's allusions and references. The genealogical analysis of the concepts of good, right, bad, and wrong is highlighted as a notable aspect of the text, along with a glimpse into Nietzsche's "perspectivalist" epistemology in the third section. The writing style is described as both enjoyable and thought-provoking, with Nietzsche being hailed as a master stylist. However, there is criticism of Nietzsche's lack of solid arguments and warrant for rejecting the traditional view of truth as correspondence. This skepticism in Nietzsche's philosophy raises questions about the implications of his earlier critique of moral concepts. Some readers found the book to be jumpy and esoteric, with little connection between paragraphs, which is characteristic of Nietzsche's later works. One reviewer initially Considered stopping reading after the introduction and again halfway through the first essay, but found some statements interesting in the first two essays and found the third essay to be more engaging.
