Under these three umbrellas is a collection of insightful and provocative essays considering, among other topics, Nietzsche's understanding of resistance; his engagement with classical thinkers alongside his contemporaries, including Jacob Burckhardt; his views on language, metaphor and aphorism; and war, revolt and terror. In bringing together such topics, \u003ci\u003eConflict and Contest in Nietzsche's Philosophy \u003c\/i\u003eseeks to correct the one-sided tendencies within the existing literature to read simply 'hard' and 'soft' analyses of conflict.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWritten by scholars across the Anglophone and the European traditions, within and beyond philosophy, this collection emphasises the entire problematic of conflict in Nietzsche's thought and its relation to his philosophical and literary practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“This is a most welcome volume with excellent articles on what is not only one of the most important topics of Nietzsche's philosophy, but moreover a decisive characteristic of his art of writing and the prevalent structural principle of his philosophical practice in all its domains and in the whole of its development.” —\u003ci\u003ePaul van Tongeren, Professor Emeritus of Philosophy at Radboud University, The Netherlands and KU Leuven, Belgium\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Exploring the ways in which an ontology of conflict informs Nietzsche's philosophy across the various domains of his critical interest has long been a desideratum.
