This book examines Nietzsche’s early writings on education, paying particular attention to his thought on scholarship and teaching. Giosuè Ghisalberti examines Nietzsche’s view of himself as a teacher in the broader context of his reflections on scholarship and philology, and puts Nietzsche’s examination into conversation with prominent themes in his later philosophy (including morality, truth, and language). The book is to be read as an assessment of our social predicament, in and out of the university. <i>“We Scholars” According to Nietzsche</i> develops ideas on our contemporary world most especially in institutions of higher learning and how morality is proving to be inimical to freedom.<div><b><br></b></div><div><b>Giosuè Ghisalberti</b> is Professor of Philosophy at Humber College, Canada.
