The Moral Battlefield: Nietzsche's Radical Challenge to Conventional Ethics
What if everything we believe about morality is wrong? What if our most cherished values-goodness, compassion, humility-actually originated not from divine wisdom or rational thought, but from psychological resentment and power struggles? This is the explosive thesis Friedrich Nietzsche presents in "On the Genealogy of Morals," a work that continues to unsettle readers more than a century after its publication. While virtually unknown when published in 1887, Nietzsche's radical dissection of moral values would eventually influence figures from Michel Foucault to Jordan Peterson, and even Sigmund Freud (though he was reluctant to admit it). What makes this work so enduring is Nietzsche's uncanny ability to peel back the layers of our moral pretensions and expose the uncomfortable truths beneath-truths we're still struggling to confront today.
