1887Best.-Nr. 927Leipzig: E.W. Fritzsch 1887. First Thus. Hardcover. Very good. First complete edition of one of Nietzsches most important texts! NIETZSCHE Friedrich. Die Frohliche Wissenschaft "la gaya scienza". Neue Ausgabe mit einem Anhange: Lieder des Prinsen Vogelfrei The Gay Science . E.W. Fritzsch Leipzig 1887. III XII = Vorrede 1 leaf = Half-title 5 350 1 leaf = Berichtigungen; Octavo. First Edition Second Issue Definitive. Schaberg 51. A must have for any Nietzsche collection. This Neue Ausgabe consisted of the 788 unsold sheets from the first edition of 1882 with the addition of a new title page Nietzsches new 10-page Vorrede Preface 2 new half-title pages and a new 5th book "Wir Furchtlosen" We Fearless Ones. Thus 75 new pages along with fourteen pages of poetry appear here for the first time. While the first edition appeared in 1882 it was incomplete. This is truly the first edition of the complete and definitive text of what is today read as The Gay Science. Nietzsche felt that the Vorrede to this and the other reissues of 1886/7 were among the best things that he ever wrote. The Gay Science which is the final and culminating volume of Nietzsches aphoristic works contains the first instance of his famous statement Gott ist tot! God is Dead first in section 108 then more elaborately detailed in the Parable of the Madman in section 125 and for a third time in section 343. It also contains the first appearance of the doctrine of the "Eternal Return of the Same" which plays such a prominent role in Zarathustra and even includes the Nietzsches first mention of the Uebermensch. CONDITION: Very good in a quarter leather contemporary binding with marbled boards gilt lettering to the spine. Some wear to spine leather. Minor rubbing to marbling on front cover. Small bookseller sticker to inside corner of rear free endpaper PHOTOS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST E.W. Fritzsch hardcover
1878Best.-Nr. 928Chemnitz: Schmeitzner 1878. Second Edition. Hardcover. Very good. NIETZSCHE Friedrich Die Geburt der Tragödie The Birth of Tragedy. Schmeitzner Chemnitz 1878. TP III-IV 1-144 Octavo. The famous Second Edition First Issue of Nietzsche's first book. Schaberg 30. The publication history of Nietzsche s Birth of Tragedy is about as complicated as any. The 143-page first edition appeared in 1872 published by E.W. Fritzsch. Shortly after its release Fritzsch printed a second edition that included Nietzsche s corrections extending the text to 144 pages. This was completed by March of 1874 yet because of some conflicts between Nietzsche and Fritzsch and the financial difficulties Fritzsch was experiencing the 750 copies of this 144-page second edition were never available for sale. They sat in a warehouse for 4 years until Schmeitzner Nietzsche s new publisher acquired the copies. Schmeitzner affixed his own label on top of the original publisher s information and made the books available for sale. Very few sold no more than 175. In 1886 the unsold copies of both the 143-page first edition and the 144-page second edition ended up back with the original publisher Fritzsch who added Nietzsche s new preface along with a new title page for the "Neue Ausgabe" edition the definitive edition if the 144-page copy!. Thus fewer than 175 copies in this state 144-pages with the original title page and Schmeitzner label extant. A rare find and a must-have for any Nietzsche collection to be complete.Printing and the Mind of Man notes "Nietzsche's principle work during the Wagner period 1868-1878 was Die Geburt der Tragodie aus dem Geist der Musik 1872. In this he adopted a tragico-pessimistic conceptions of Greek civilization like Burckhardt but contrary to Grote. This started his career as a critic of modern civilization based on disgust with imperial Germany Christianity bourgeois ethics and so on." PMM 224. In this his first book Nietzsche theorized that Greek tragedy was built upon a wedding of two principles that he associated with the deities Apollo and Dionysus. The Apollonian principle is the principle of order static beauty and clear boundaries. The Dionysian principle in contrast is the principle of frenzy excess and the demolition of boundaries. It is in the subtle interaction of these disparate principles that the greatness of Greek tragedy resides and by extension in which the creative spirit still finds its proper soil. The book ended with a long section devoted to Richard Wagner and the importance of his music. When first released it met with only limited success. Despite Nietzsche's eventual near contempt for the book - from the perspective naturally of his later unequalled masterpieces of German prose - it must be considered along with Aristotle and Hegel among the greatest contributions to the understanding of Greek tragedy and in fact to the Greek way of life in general. CONDITION: Very Good in contemporary half-calf and marbled boards. Light wear. Gilt lettering. Light foxing. Former owners name neatly inscribed to upper corner of front free endpaper. As issued with Schmeitzner's label canceling out Fritzsch's imprint. A very good copy of a very rare book. Schmeitzner hardcover
1908Best.-Nr. 919Leipzig: Insel-Verlag 1908. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good. Nietzsches Self-Congratulatory Masterpiece Explaining: Why I Am So Wise NIETZSCHE Friedrich. Ecce homo Behold the Man. Insel-Verlag Leipzig 1908. 1 leaf TPs 7-154 155 = Inhalt 157 = Exemplar page Square Quarto. First Edition. Schaberg 61b Released in an edition of 1250 copies: 150 on Japanese velin and 1100 on parchment. Double-spread art nouveau title page illustrated by Henry Van de Velde. Van de Velde developed all his decorative elements from the logic of the curve and reverse curve and by covered surfaces and plain surfaces. This brings the text and the decorations into an ideally close connection with each other Hofstatter Art Nouveau p. 100. Copies were so expensive that it was dubbed the "bank director's edition" Schaberg The Nietzsche Canon p. 185. First edition of Nietzsche's apologia written as a pre-emptive defense against his interpreters though not published for almost twenty years after it was written due to the machinations and the fears of his sister. "I have a terrible fear that one day I will be pronounced holy: you will guess why I publish this book before; it shall prevent people from doing mischief with me. I do not want to be a holy man; sooner even a buffoon. - Perhaps I am a buffoon." To his future followers he offers the following: "You say you believe in Zarathustra But what matters Zarathustra! You are my believers - but what matter all believers! You had not yet sought yourselves and you found me. Thus do all believers; therefore all faith amounts to so little." CONDITION: Very good in original half vellum and grey boards with embossed circular title on the front cover in gilt and again in gild on the spine. Light bumping to extremities. Spine lightly soiled. One of 1100 copies #601 printed on parchment. Insel-Verlag hardcover
