Pagera Editor's Note

Human, All Too Human: A Book for Free Spirits (1878) marked Friedrich Nietzsche's break with the Wagnerian outlook of his early work and his turn to short, numbered aphorisms written in a sceptical, scientific spirit. This record is Alexander Harvey's English translation (Chicago, 1908), which covers only the opening of the work: the author's preface and the first three of its nine divisions, Of the First and Last Things, History of the Moral Feelings and The Religious Life (aphorisms 1 to 144). In them Nietzsche treats metaphysics, morality and religion as human creations to be explained historically and psychologically rather than as eternal truths.
