The Birth of Tragedy

The Birth of Tragedy And The Case of Wagner

"The two books in this volume belong together in theme. The Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche's first book, ends with a lengthy panegyric on the rebirth of tragedy in Wagner's opera's. In his "Attempt at a Self-Criticism," added as a preface to the "new edition" of 1886, Nietzsche regretted that he had "spoiled the grandiose Greek problem ... by introducing the most modern problems," and he explained that he had meanwhile come to see Wagner in a very different light. Two years later, in 1888, Nietzsche brought out the last book whose publication he himself experienced: The Case of Wagner."--From book's preface.
