In The Twilight of the Idols, Nietzsche declares that many traditional beliefs in Western philosophy and morality have become lifeless idols that weaken human vitality,
and to break these idols, philosophy must take up the hammer?not to destroy blindly, but to diagnose and heal what is decaying.
He criticizes religion and moral doctrines for suppressing creative instincts and glorifying weakness,
arguing for a transvaluation of values that affirms life and fosters strength through a new philosophical approach.
The preface reveals the book’s rapid composition and positions Nietzsche’s “truth” as living insight gained through suffering and struggle.
The Twilight of the Idols announces the end of outdated certainties and invites readers to reimagine human existence through stronger, life-affirming thought.
