## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential reading for any serious student of the arts
*by R***M on 20 November 2013*

Friedrich Nietzsche's 'The birth of tragedy: out of the spirit of music' raises the most profound questions about the nature art. Drawing from both Greek mythology and a deep knowledge of pre-Socratic Greek art Nietzsche attempts to account for the development and fate of Greek tragic theatre. It's a fascinating account that invites the reader to consider the contrasting artistic powers that find expression in different works of art. The text also suggests why every human is a consummate artist!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars
*by Z***Y on 23 August 2016*

Amazing and readable.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Birth of Tragedy: Out of the Spirit of Music
*by J***. on 20 September 2011*

This is a small book with big ideas.I had never read Nietzsche before and decided to read this book in conjunction with others I was reading for a talk I am giving.Although his writing is convoluted at times, as I would expect from a philosopher, I was intrigued by what he was saying, particularly in the light of later psychoanalytic theorists, such as Freud,Lacan,Klein, Bion etc., since he seems to be working on ideas that would later become crystallized in psychoanalytic thinking and theory.This, enabled me to shape what it was I wanted to say in my talk. I was also able to understand his thinking, not only theoretically, but also in the light of his illness, which would, later, have a profound effect on his work and his life.I could relate also to his notion of art, and music in particular, as stimulus for experience of the sublime.
