Talk:Twilight of the Idols

Potential plagiarism
The line "Nietzsche criticizes German culture of the day as unsophisticated, decadent and nihilistic, and shoots some disapproving arrows at key French, British, and Italian cultural figures who represent similar tendencies. In contrast to all these alleged representatives of cultural decadence, Nietzsche applauds Caesar, Napoleon, Goethe, Thucydides and the Sophists as healthier and stronger types." Is also present with minor changes in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/nietzsche-life-works. I'm not experienced enough with Wikipedia to deal with this or even if it's necessary but maybe someone else can. Thanks! tildejustin (talk) 13:02, 5 February 2024 (UTC)

Problem with the linked translation by Ferrer
The edit history of this page shows that Ferrer himself added a link (without a clear header?) to his English translation at the bottom of the page. While it is generous of Ferrer to share his work for free, this translation is not authoritative and has several errors. Should the link here be removed or annotated in some way?

Unsigned
Thanks for writing this article. It's hard to summarize this book and this author. I'm not sure I would have made the same synopsis of this work, but I don't have specific complaints with it either.

It would be nice to put it in a little context of the other writings from this period. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.20.177.193 (talk) 21:28, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

CALLING: Nietzsche scholars for Collaboration
Building a new article on wikipedia and I am looking to collaborate with a Nietzsche scholar. The focus is specifically geared towards unravelling N.'s last two works: Twilight of The Idols and The Anti-Christ. I have to be extremely judicious (conservative) in my attribution of themes to Nietzsche, so I'd like to have someone more tapped into the peer-reviewed, mainstream consensus of standard Nietzsche scholarship to mediate and provide guidance to the claims I am about to make. Either contact me here->

Change synopsis organization
I'm all in favour of organizing the synopsis by the sections Nietzsche organizes the book by, e.g., The Problem of Socrates, Reason in Philosophy, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mikem1234 (talk • contribs) 06:02, 5 October 2010 (UTC)
