    Frederich Nietzsche was a renowned German philosopher born in 1844. In his famous book "On the Genealogy of Morals" published in 1887, Nietzsche launched a comprehensive criticism of the cultural and moral principles of European civilization. The book contains three essays that establish an intensifying incongruity between good and evil, as Nietzsche argues that Judeo-Christian traditions explain living standards by differentiating between Good and Evil. Nietzsche stresses the genesis of moral prejudices that have shaped history and counters moral absolutism by arguing people should define themselves outside of religion and morality.

    On the Genealogy of Morals by Frederich

    In the course of the twentieth century, very few philosophers were able to mark their name in

    history, Frederich Nietzsche was one of them. Frederich Nietzsche was born in October 15,

    1844, Rocken, Lutzen, Germany, who in coming decades became a one of the renowned faces of

    Germany philosophy. Academically, Frederich Nietzsche studied philology as a subject, which

    he hated the most, but at the same time, he was philosopher, cultural critic and a poet. Because of

    his controversial writings and argument of philosophy, he was neglected at that time in Germany.

    But the dawn of twentieth century, which marked his death, his writings became popular for two

    major reasons.

    The famous book on the Genealogy of Morals was published in 1887, in which Nietzsche

    confronted the philosophical and cultural foundations of the modern-day European society. The

    book contains three major essays, which establishes a comprehensive criticism on the cultural

    and moral principles of the Europeans civilization. In the first essay, the author launches an

    intensifying incongruity between good and evil. For him, the whole discourse of the Judeo-

    Christian traditions stresses on the explaining the living standards for the people by intuitively

    differentiating between Good and Evil. Therefore, for him, it time for every men on earth to

    define himself by moving out the guises of morality and religion.


    Last Name

    With this stranded aphorismic account concerning the identity of being, Nietzsche elaborates

    about the moral absolutism of Judeo-Christian ethics. And, to counter this Frederich Nietzsche

    stresses on the genesis of moral prejudices that have shaped the history of various cultures,

    religion and civilization. In contrast, the whole philosophical principle of the book ‘On the

    Genealogy of Morals’ stresses on the criticism of moral and ethical absolutism of Judeo-

    Christian tradition by intuitively differentiating between Good and Evil.
