The most misunderstood concept in European philosophy, and a depth-psychological reading that reclaims Nietzsche from those who appropriated him.
The will to power is one of the most influential and most misread ideas in German philosophy. Markus Markusen reconstructs it from Nietzsche's own work and separates it from his sister's falsification and from its abuse by National Socialism.
Read anew, the will to power is the capacity for self-formation, not domination over others. This book draws a clean line between Nietzsche and the Nazis, shows why ressentiment is a key concept for understanding the present, and recovers self-overcoming without the kitsch of self-optimization.
