Synopsis

Excerpt from The Will to Freedom: Or the Gospel of Nietzsche and the Gospel of Christ; Being the Bross Lectures Delivered in Lake Forest College, Illinois The Bross Library is an outgrowth of a fund established in 1879 by the late William Bross, lieutenant-governor of Illinois from 1866 to 1870. Desiring some memorial of his son, Nathaniel Bross, who died in 1856, Mr. Bross entered into an agreement with the "trustees of Lake Forest University," whereby there was finally transferred to them the sum of forty thousand dollars, the income of which was to accumulate in perpetuity for successive periods of ten years, the accumulation of one decade to be spent in the following decade, for the purpose of stimulating the best books or treatises "on the connection, relation, and mutual bearing of any practical science, the history of our race, or the facts in any department of knowledge, with and upon the Christian Religion."

Product Description:

Excerpt from The Will to Freedom: Or the Gospel of Nietzsche and the Gospel of Christ; Being the Bross Lectures Delivered in Lake Forest College, Illinois

I would beg the reader to bear in mind this fact: The author's interest in Nietzsche is not due to the war, nor does it date from 1914. To what extent Nietzsche is a creator as well as a prophet of the mod ern German mind I have not discussed. Speaking in a neutral country, I could not do that. Nor do I propose to discuss it now. The reader will find much help from Mr. Santayana's brilliant and witty work on Egotism in German Philosophy.
