A Guide to Happiness from “a known anti-Christ” I am more of a Schopenhaurian than a Nietzscheian, and more of a Darwinian than a Schopenhaurian. But the following two-part, 24-minute video by Alain de Botton is a populist introduction to the ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche. It comes with Norman Lowell’s approval, so it has to be worth a post here. Part One Part Two and, with thanks to skeptical ... Paert Three Comments:2

Posted by Guessedworker on Fri, 04 Jan 2008 12:45 | # Penn State houses a very good Nietzsche resource - minus the trade-mark accessiblity, perhaps also known as banality, of de Botton. He is, by the way, from an old Spanish Sephardic family of considerable wealth. He rejected the academic world, and has established himself as a television programme-maker and a sympathetic voice for the Western intellect. I am none too sure to what extent the bracing pursuit of a life of Nietzscheian glory really appeals to him ... or to anyone of us except in a theoretical, armchair way. Not much in reality, I expect. Post a comment:

GW,
I followed the YouTube links and noted that there is also a Part Three that you might consider adding.
