Amor Fati: Eternal Procession in Emerson and Nietzsche
This book examines the meaning of love, the problem with science, the power of women, and the enigma of eternal return in Friedrich Nietzsche's reception of the work of Ralph Waldo Emerson. "Caroline Kelley's Amor Fati .... is compelling to read. It examines the complexity of nature in contradistinction to the simplicity, indeed the 'illusion, ' of human logical constructs. Kelley's exploration of mythical female figures, like the Sphinx and Ariadne, plays a decisive role in her account, allowing us to muse on what she calls a 'hermeneutics of women.''' - Friedrich Ulfers, Distinguished Professor of German, New York University
