{"product_id":"9781350047341","title":"Nietzsche And Friendship (Bloomsbury Studies In Continental Philosophy)","description":"Verkerk identifies Friedrich Nietzsche as an ethical and a political thinker whose writings on friendship, love, and women force us to rethink the ideal of friendship today. Friendship is a significant philosophical topic for Nietzsche because he believes in the diverse capacities of intimate relationships to effect change. In his writings, Nietzsche shows us that philosophical accounts of love and friendship are not only about defining relationships. They have an ethical feature which speaks to the therapeutic role that relationships have in the pursuit of self-knowledge and health. They also have a political component that reveals norms associated with gender. Nietzsche's challenges to the received principles of friendship offer resources for reinvigorating our thinking about them. Yet few scholars have seriously considered Nietzsche's thinking on these topics. Willow Verkerk revives interest in the ethical, therapeutic, and political dimensions of Nietzsche's thinking by showing the important contribution his work makes to studies on friendship, love, and gender in the history of philosophy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eWillow Verkerk\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eBloomsbury Academic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eFeb 21, 2019\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e200 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eEnglish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e1350047341\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9781350047341\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Academic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48548128850225,"sku":"9781350047341","price":196.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/products\/9781350047341.jpg?v=1710906960","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9781350047341","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
