Nietzsche has cast off the fetters of Wagner and Schopenhauer,

The two volumes of “The Will to Power" were destined to be
Nietzsche's greatest theoretical and philosophical prose work,
which, unfortunately, was never completed by its author. The
criticism of Religion and Morality found in this volume gives a
proof of Nietzsche's tolerant attitude towards Christianity, which
he wished not to eradicate, but to keep within its proper limits

interest of many men of science. The second half of this volume
is one of the most valuable productions of Nietzsche, containing,

me in this book. ” In the “Antichrist " Nietzsche tenders his,

of every foreign word or phrase occurring in the seventeen
volumes of the edition by Mr Paul V. Cohn, B. A. The whole
is preceded by an introductory essay by the Editor : “The
Nietzsche Movement in England-a Retrospect, a Confession,
a Prospect. "
“ Nietzsche was a great poet, a great musician, a great scholar, and
a great philosopher. He took from every part of culture, and everything
he touched was shaped and animated by his tremendous personality.
He lived as he wrote-heroically. His life, after his boyhood, was a
long battle with pain, but he never wavered. He worked on until his
brain gave way, worn out at last by his indomitable spirit; and his
work has opened out the possibilities of man's life as widely and as
surely as the work of anyone who has ever lived. It is a benefit to the
community that his work has at length been translated into the English
language. "-The Observer,
* These Volumes-X. , XI. , XII. , XV. , XVI. , and XVII. -may be
strongly recommended as containing the quintessence o Nietzsche.
Readers are advised not to approach * Thus Spake Zarathustra" until
after a perusal of the other volumes.

THE RENAISSANCE
BY COUNT ARTHUR DE GOBINEAU
With 20 Illustrations
Translated by Paul V. Cohn, with an Introductory
Essay on Count GOBINEAU's Life and Work,
by Dr OSCAR LEVY
IOS.
(HEINEMANN)
THESE five historical dramas cover the flowering-time of
the Italian Renaissance from the rise to prominence of
Savonarola (1492) to the last days of Michael Angelo (about
1560). While grouped round the leading figures who provide
the titles-Savonarola, Cesare Borgia, Julius II. , Leo X. , and
Michael Angelo—the plays introduce almost every interesting
character of the period. Nor are we only concerned with
the great names : the author aims at catching the spirit of
the people, and the thoughts and feelings of soldier, artisan,
trader, and their womenfolk find ample voice in his pages.
The Italian Renaissance is an epoch of peculiar interest
to English readers, not least because of its profound in-
fluence on our own Elizabethan age. It is perhaps the
most many-sided period in history : even fifth-century Greece
scarcely contributed so much-or at any rate so much that
has survived to the world of politics, art, and thought.
Now while this interest is amply reflected in contemporary
literature, from the monumental work of Symonds down to
the flotsam and jetsam of everyday fiction, there is one kind
of man who more than an historian would show insight into
this age, and that is a poet.
It is as a poet's work that Gobineau's “ Historical Scenes”
recommend themselves to the public. But there are many
kinds of poets : there is the religious and moral kind, there
is the irreligious and sub-moral kind, and there is the super-
religious and super-moral kind. Only the last-named can
understand, can feel, can sympathise with such mighty
figures as Cesare Borgia and Julius II. - the religious
poet being inclined to paint them as monsters, the sub-
religious as freaks and neurotics. Similia similibus : equals
can only be recognised by their equals, and Gobineau was

a
THE RENAISSANCE-continued
himself a type of the Renaissance flung by destiny into an age
of low bourgeois and socialist ideals. In a century swayed
by romanticism and democracy, Gobineau was a classic and
an aristocrat. He is a forerunner of Nietzsche ("the only
European spirit I should care to converse with," said
Nietzsche of him in a letter), and as such is peculiarly fitted
to deal with one of the few periods that was not dominated
by the moral law. For this reason Gobineau cannot fail to
attract the large and ever-growing circle of students of
Nietzsche in this country and America.
“I can only add that this is a volume of serious import, worth reading from
cover to cover, a book which even a jaded reviewer closes with a sigh of regret
that he has not got to read it all over again. "-G. S. LAYARD in the Bookman.
“No book that we can recall tells so vividly and in such brilliant style the
story of the finest period of Italy as this 'Renaissance' of Gobineau's. The
glory and the shame of the revival of art and letters, the covetousness, the
cruelties, the licence, mixed up inextricably with the triumphs of painters,
architects, and poets; the passionate desire for self-expression and for mastery
in natures that shrank from no crime, and cast morality and decency, honour
and fidelity to the dogs—these things, the visible demonstrations of the spirit of
that age, are brought out conspicuously by the author's genius, and the men
and women, in whom were the characteristic qualities of the time, live and move
before us on Gobineau's stage. "-Yorkshire Post.
“We scarcely know whether to be more struck with the truth or liveliness of
these portraits. Savonarola, for example, is something more than the Savonarola
of history and tradition. Not only is the character of the man subtly brought
out; not only are we made aware, for the first time, adequately, of that devour.
ing egotism which could see nothing but self as God's instrument, self as the
scourge of Florence, self as the inspired prophet; but beneath all this and
vouching for it is the consciousness of the reality of the man, the consciousness
that his cries of distress are real cries, and his moments of fierce aspiration and
black despair genuine experiences. More touching and even more lifelike is the
figure of Michael Angelo, a figure in the main familiar to us, but endowed with
advancing years with a peace of mind, a lucidity of intelligence, and a breadth
of sympathy such as were foreign to its young and stormy epoch. The last
scene between Michael Angelo and Vittoria Colonna is a noble one, and can be
read more than once with pleasure. ”—The Morning Post.
“A debt is due to Dr Oscar Levy for bringing before English readers this
translation of that great work of Count Gobineau, in which, through the medium
of the drama, he reveals his reverence for the spirit that inspired the Italian
Renaissance. The plays constituting the book are five in number, 'Savonarola,'
*Cesare Borgia,' Julius II. , 'Leo X. ,' and 'Michael Angelo'-and nothing
more brilliant has appeared in recent times. In scope we can only compare
with it Mr Hardy's Dynasts,' but no more striking contrast could be con-
ceived than the creations of these two geniuses. Through the pages of these
plays moves the whole glittering pageant of the fifteenth and sixteenth cen.
turies, a mob of soldiers, priests, artists, men and women, slaying, plundering,
preaching, poisoning, painting, rioting, and loving, while out of the surgent
mass rise the figures of the splendid three, Borgia, Julius, and Michael Angelo,
dominating all by the sheer greatness of their ideas and their contempt for other
men's opinions. They are the great aristocrats of their time, and the five plays-
really one in conception-are an assertion of the saving grace of aristocracy, of
the glory of race, at a time when the democratic food, whose source is
Christianity, was beginning to pour over Europe, to the overwhelming of all
greatness of thought and art. The translation, which is excellent, is by Paul
V. Cobn. - Glasgow Herald.

“ATTA TROLL,” Heine's favourite work, though written in 1842, is
full of modern significance. The hero is a revolutionary, demo-
cratic dancing, bear, whose ideas of equality and liberty form the
object of Heine's satire. The poein is a fascinating medley of Heine's
inimitable wit, lurking ironic mockery and exquisite poetry, with
touches of romance and tenderness.
The flowing, faithful, yet elastic translation preserves all the
vital charm and racy flavour of the original. Apart from its brilliant
narrative, the anti-demagogic spirit of the poem will strongly com-
mend itself to all admirers of Nietzsche and Gobineau.
This charming volume in a literary and artistic sense has met
with universal praise and admiration.

THE MASTERY OF LIFE
By G. T. WRENCH
155. net
(DUCKWORTH)
This book is a review of the history of civilisation with the object
of discovering in the phrase of Nietzsche, “under what conditions
and where the plant man flourished best. ' The review shows that
the patriarchal family has always been the foundation of peoples,
who have been distinguished for their joy in and power over life,
and have expressed their joy and power in art works, which have
been their peculiar glory and the object of admiration and wonder
of other peoples. On the other hand, peoples who have not based
themselves on the larger humanity of patriarchalism, and who
have not cultivated a masterful aristocracy, have been distinguished
by a weaker and often miserable attitude towards life, and by an
expression, not of power, joy, and quality, but of exhaustion,
pessimism, and doubts about the objects of existence.
The author contrasts the two types of peoples, the orderly and
artistic, and the dehumanised or mechanical, and shows how the
latter may hope to attain to the mastery of life, both social and
individual. But to carry out the change of social basis and values,
a new kind of men is needed, and this need leads the author in the
last pages to advocate as an essential preliminary the self-culture of
power and will, which Nietzsche taught so brilliantly through the
mouth of Zarathustra.

(HEINEMANN)
In an age given to a general tendency of levelling up and down, it
is particularly interesting to show the psychological and spiritual
development of genius, because it has been the tendency to belittle
the divine element among us. A first-hand account of the life of a
man of undoubted genius-undoubted even by his enemies and
detractors-must be of interest.
Frau Foerster-Nietzsche is admirably supplied with first-hand
documents and evidence, having from childhood collected everything
concerning her brother, who was only two years her senior. Her
method is perhaps best shown in the following paragraph :-
“From the days of my earliest childhood I always regarded my brother as the
highest authority. . . . But this reverence which I showed for Fritz and which,
throughout my childhood and youth brought me a lot of teasing and chaff-for
at heart I am not a believer in authority-certainly had one excellent practical
result in the shape of the Nietzsche archives, the extraordinary rich contents of
which have been collected by myself alone. From a very early age I have
always kept a treasure-drawer, in which I preserved whatever I could get hold
of that happened to come from my brother's pen, and had been discarded by him.
And if from the first he had not been so fond of burning things, and had not
occasionally made such raids upon my precious hoard, not one of his compositions
from the time he was eight years old would now be missing; for when I was
only six, though I attached but slight importance to my own things, I had already
started this collection of my brother's productions. ”

*XII. BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL.
Translated by Helen Zimmern, with Introduction by T. Common.
Cr 8vo, 276 pp. , 35. 6d. net.
Third Edition.
One of the most characteristic and most brilliant of the works of
Nietzsche, containing aphorisms, principally on the morality of
different races and nations, explaining the great distinction be-
tween master and slave morality, and developing some of the
ideas of the Zarathustra.
XIII. THE GENEALOGY OF MORALS.
Translated by Horace B. Samuel, M. A. Cr 8vo, 35. 6d. net,
232 pp.
Second Edition.
Contains Nietzsche's celebrated exposition of the origin of sin
and punishment and the gradual development of the theory of
original sin, leading up to a severe denunciation of Christian
morality.
XIV. THE WILL TO POWER, VOL. I.
Translated by A. M. Ludovici. Cr 8vo, 55. net. Third Edition.
The two volumes of “The Will to Power" were destined to be
Nietzsche's greatest theoretical and philosophical prose work,
which, unfortunately, was never completed by its author. The
criticism of Religion and Morality found in this volume gives a
proof of Nietzsche's tolerant attitude towards Christianity, which
he wished not to eradicate, but to keep within its proper limits
as a religion for the people.
*XV. THE WILL TO POWER, VOL. II.
Translated by A. M. Ludovici. Cr 8vo, 5s. net. Second Edition,
This contains Nietzsche's view of Science. The first part of this
volume contains Nietzsche's research into the “Will to Power
in Nature," and has from the date of its appearance aroused the
interest of many men of science. The second half of this volume
is one of the most valuable productions of Nietzsche, containing,
as it does, his views on breeding and discipline, eugenics and
race-regeneration. Chapters are devoted to Dionysus and the
Eternal Recurrence.
*XVI. THE TWILIGHT OF IDOLS, THE ANTI-
CHRIST, ETERNAL RECURRENCE.
Translated by A. M. Ludovici. Cr 8vo, 300 pp. , 55. net.
In “The Twilight of the Idols" Nietzsche's dexterity in com-
bating European Degeneracy reaches its zenith. “All those,
he says, “who desire to obtain a rapid sketch of how everything,
before my time, was standing on its head, should begin reading
me in this book. ” In the “Antichrist " Nietzsche tenders his,
that is to say, the Higher Man's, ultimatum to Christianity.

This is a very exhaustive index, such as is even at present want-
ing in the French and German editions of Nietzsche. It contains
nearly 400 pages of matter. Added to this index is a translation
of every foreign word or phrase occurring in the seventeen
volumes of the edition by Mr Paul V. Cohn, B. A. The whole
is preceded by an introductory essay by the Editor : “The
Nietzsche Movement in England-a Retrospect, a Confession,
a Prospect. "
“ Nietzsche was a great poet, a great musician, a great scholar, and
a great philosopher. He took from every part of culture, and everything
he touched was shaped and animated by his tremendous personality.
He lived as he wrote-heroically. His life, after his boyhood, was a
long battle with pain, but he never wavered. He worked on until his
brain gave way, worn out at last by his indomitable spirit; and his
work has opened out the possibilities of man's life as widely and as
surely as the work of anyone who has ever lived. It is a benefit to the
community that his work has at length been translated into the English
language. "-The Observer,
* These Volumes-X. , XI. , XII. , XV. , XVI. , and XVII. -may be
strongly recommended as containing the quintessence o Nietzsche.
Readers are advised not to approach * Thus Spake Zarathustra" until
after a perusal of the other volumes.

THE RENAISSANCE
BY COUNT ARTHUR DE GOBINEAU
With 20 Illustrations
Translated by Paul V. Cohn, with an Introductory
Essay on Count GOBINEAU's Life and Work,
by Dr OSCAR LEVY
IOS.
(HEINEMANN)
THESE five historical dramas cover the flowering-time of
the Italian Renaissance from the rise to prominence of
Savonarola (1492) to the last days of Michael Angelo (about
1560). While grouped round the leading figures who provide
the titles-Savonarola, Cesare Borgia, Julius II. , Leo X. , and
Michael Angelo—the plays introduce almost every interesting
character of the period. Nor are we only concerned with
the great names : the author aims at catching the spirit of
the people, and the thoughts and feelings of soldier, artisan,
trader, and their womenfolk find ample voice in his pages.
The Italian Renaissance is an epoch of peculiar interest
to English readers, not least because of its profound in-
fluence on our own Elizabethan age. It is perhaps the
most many-sided period in history : even fifth-century Greece
scarcely contributed so much-or at any rate so much that
has survived to the world of politics, art, and thought.
Now while this interest is amply reflected in contemporary
literature, from the monumental work of Symonds down to
the flotsam and jetsam of everyday fiction, there is one kind
of man who more than an historian would show insight into
this age, and that is a poet.
It is as a poet's work that Gobineau's “ Historical Scenes”
recommend themselves to the public. But there are many
kinds of poets : there is the religious and moral kind, there
is the irreligious and sub-moral kind, and there is the super-
religious and super-moral kind. Only the last-named can
understand, can feel, can sympathise with such mighty
figures as Cesare Borgia and Julius II. - the religious
poet being inclined to paint them as monsters, the sub-
religious as freaks and neurotics. Similia similibus : equals
can only be recognised by their equals, and Gobineau was

THE RENAISSANCE-continued
himself a type of the Renaissance flung by destiny into an age
of low bourgeois and socialist ideals. In a century swayed
by romanticism and democracy, Gobineau was a classic and
an aristocrat. He is a forerunner of Nietzsche ("the only
European spirit I should care to converse with," said
Nietzsche of him in a letter), and as such is peculiarly fitted
to deal with one of the few periods that was not dominated
by the moral law. For this reason Gobineau cannot fail to
attract the large and ever-growing circle of students of
Nietzsche in this country and America.
“I can only add that this is a volume of serious import, worth reading from
cover to cover, a book which even a jaded reviewer closes with a sigh of regret
that he has not got to read it all over again. "-G. S. LAYARD in the Bookman.
“No book that we can recall tells so vividly and in such brilliant style the
story of the finest period of Italy as this 'Renaissance' of Gobineau's. The
glory and the shame of the revival of art and letters, the covetousness, the
cruelties, the licence, mixed up inextricably with the triumphs of painters,
architects, and poets; the passionate desire for self-expression and for mastery
in natures that shrank from no crime, and cast morality and decency, honour
and fidelity to the dogs—these things, the visible demonstrations of the spirit of
that age, are brought out conspicuously by the author's genius, and the men
and women, in whom were the characteristic qualities of the time, live and move
before us on Gobineau's stage. "-Yorkshire Post.
“We scarcely know whether to be more struck with the truth or liveliness of
these portraits. Savonarola, for example, is something more than the Savonarola
of history and tradition. Not only is the character of the man subtly brought
out; not only are we made aware, for the first time, adequately, of that devour.
ing egotism which could see nothing but self as God's instrument, self as the
scourge of Florence, self as the inspired prophet; but beneath all this and
vouching for it is the consciousness of the reality of the man, the consciousness
that his cries of distress are real cries, and his moments of fierce aspiration and
black despair genuine experiences. More touching and even more lifelike is the
figure of Michael Angelo, a figure in the main familiar to us, but endowed with
advancing years with a peace of mind, a lucidity of intelligence, and a breadth
of sympathy such as were foreign to its young and stormy epoch. The last
scene between Michael Angelo and Vittoria Colonna is a noble one, and can be
read more than once with pleasure. ”—The Morning Post.
“A debt is due to Dr Oscar Levy for bringing before English readers this
translation of that great work of Count Gobineau, in which, through the medium
of the drama, he reveals his reverence for the spirit that inspired the Italian
Renaissance. The plays constituting the book are five in number, 'Savonarola,'
*Cesare Borgia,' Julius II. , 'Leo X. ,' and 'Michael Angelo'-and nothing
more brilliant has appeared in recent times. In scope we can only compare
with it Mr Hardy's Dynasts,' but no more striking contrast could be con-
ceived than the creations of these two geniuses. Through the pages of these
plays moves the whole glittering pageant of the fifteenth and sixteenth cen.
turies, a mob of soldiers, priests, artists, men and women, slaying, plundering,
preaching, poisoning, painting, rioting, and loving, while out of the surgent
mass rise the figures of the splendid three, Borgia, Julius, and Michael Angelo,
dominating all by the sheer greatness of their ideas and their contempt for other
men's opinions. They are the great aristocrats of their time, and the five plays-
really one in conception-are an assertion of the saving grace of aristocracy, of
the glory of race, at a time when the democratic food, whose source is
Christianity, was beginning to pour over Europe, to the overwhelming of all
greatness of thought and art. The translation, which is excellent, is by Paul
V. Cobn. - Glasgow Herald.

account of Nietzsche's general art doctrine, and I have also applied
this doctrine to the graphic arts of to-day and of antiquity. ”
"The finest art, or the ruler art, as he calls it, is that in which the aristocratic

art can be the flower

“ATTA TROLL,” Heine's favourite work, though written in 1842, is
full of modern significance. The hero is a revolutionary, demo-
cratic dancing, bear, whose ideas of equality and liberty form the
object of Heine's satire. The poein is a fascinating medley of Heine's
inimitable wit, lurking ironic mockery and exquisite poetry, with
touches of romance and tenderness.
The flowing, faithful, yet elastic translation preserves all the
vital charm and racy flavour of the original. Apart from its brilliant
narrative, the anti-demagogic spirit of the poem will strongly com-
mend itself to all admirers of Nietzsche and Gobineau.
This charming volume in a literary and artistic sense has met
with universal praise and admiration.
“. . . The translator is himself a gifted poet, and the tribute in Dr Oscar
Levy's Introduction to the remarkable degree in which he has rendered the
elusive wit, brilliance, and tenderness of the original is thoroughly deserved. "-

THE MASTERY OF LIFE
By G. T. WRENCH
155. net
(DUCKWORTH)
This book is a review of the history of civilisation with the object
of discovering in the phrase of Nietzsche, “under what conditions
and where the plant man flourished best. ' The review shows that
the patriarchal family has always been the foundation of peoples,
who have been distinguished for their joy in and power over life,
and have expressed their joy and power in art works, which have
been their peculiar glory and the object of admiration and wonder
of other peoples. On the other hand, peoples who have not based
themselves on the larger humanity of patriarchalism, and who
have not cultivated a masterful aristocracy, have been distinguished
by a weaker and often miserable attitude towards life, and by an
expression, not of power, joy, and quality, but of exhaustion,
pessimism, and doubts about the objects of existence.
The author contrasts the two types of peoples, the orderly and
artistic, and the dehumanised or mechanical, and shows how the
latter may hope to attain to the mastery of life, both social and
individual. But to carry out the change of social basis and values,
a new kind of men is needed, and this need leads the author in the
last pages to advocate as an essential preliminary the self-culture of
power and will, which Nietzsche taught so brilliantly through the
mouth of Zarathustra.

This book deals, from a psychological as well as a literary stand-

although influential in their particular circle, are less known to the

The name of the brilliant young writer has become widely known in
a comparatively short time by his vivid and racy criticism of English
politics, the English Church, and English literature. Mr Kennedy
was one of the first of English critics to recognise the necessity of
breaking with last century's liberal and romantic traditions. He

SERA holds that the diffusion of democratic principles is vulgarising

on Stendhal, Nietzsche, Goethe, The Origin of Society, Work, and
the Aristocratic Ideal, show current opinions of Genius, Aristocracy,
Democracy, Sport, and Sexuality in a new light. The audacity of
Dr Sera's theories has evoked much discussion in England and on the

(HEINEMANN)
In an age given to a general tendency of levelling up and down, it
is particularly interesting to show the psychological and spiritual
development of genius, because it has been the tendency to belittle
the divine element among us. A first-hand account of the life of a
man of undoubted genius-undoubted even by his enemies and
detractors-must be of interest.
Frau Foerster-Nietzsche is admirably supplied with first-hand
documents and evidence, having from childhood collected everything
concerning her brother, who was only two years her senior. Her
method is perhaps best shown in the following paragraph :-
“From the days of my earliest childhood I always regarded my brother as the
highest authority. . . . But this reverence which I showed for Fritz and which,
throughout my childhood and youth brought me a lot of teasing and chaff-for
at heart I am not a believer in authority-certainly had one excellent practical
result in the shape of the Nietzsche archives, the extraordinary rich contents of
which have been collected by myself alone. From a very early age I have
always kept a treasure-drawer, in which I preserved whatever I could get hold
of that happened to come from my brother's pen, and had been discarded by him.
And if from the first he had not been so fond of burning things, and had not
occasionally made such raids upon my precious hoard, not one of his compositions
from the time he was eight years old would now be missing; for when I was
only six, though I attached but slight importance to my own things, I had already
started this collection of my brother's productions. ”
