Written in 1887, On the Genealogy of Morals is a profound deconstruction of morality s evolution. This philosophical masterpiece scrutinizes the origins and implications of moral values, unravelling the complex interplay of power, guilt, and societal norms. Through incisive analysis and provocative aphorisms, Nietzsche challenges prevailing moral frameworks, exposing their historical underpinnings. On the Genealogy of Morals serves as a critical examination of human ethics, inviting readers to confront uncomfortable truths about societal conditioning and the dynamics of power. Nietzsche s penetrating insight and relentless intellectual rigour make this work a cornerstone for those navigating the intricate terrain of moral philosophy and cultural critique.

Friedrich Nietzsche was a German philosopher and a cultural critic. He was born on October 15, 1844, in Rocken, Saxony, Kingdom of Prussia. His works criticise the traditional European morality, religious values as well as conventional philosophical ideas associated with modernity. He is often seen as a predecessor to late modern thinkers like Marx and Freud, because of his psychological analyses of false consciousness. He proposed many original theories positing an alternative morality and ideas which would bring forth a cultural renewal. His notable works include The Birth of Tragedy out of the Spirit of Music (1872), The Gay Science (1882), Thus Spoke Zarathustra (1883–5), Beyond Good and Evil (1886), On the Genealogy of Morality (1887), Twilight of the Idols (1888) and The Wagner Case (1888). In 1889, Nietzsche suffered a mental breakdown. Eleven years later, he died on August 25, 1900, in Weimar, German Empire.
