On Truth and Untruth: Selected Writings

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, 2010

Overview

This collection presents selected writings that challenge conventional notions of truth. The author argues that truth is an illusion, rejecting the idea of universal constants. What is perceived as truth is described as a dynamic assembly of metaphors, metonyms, and anthropomorphisms. This perspective invites a re-examination of how we understand reality and knowledge.

Who it's for

• Readers interested in philosophical critiques of truth.
• Those exploring Nietzsche's ideas on language and reality.
