About This Book

Nietzsche's debut work explores the origins of Greek tragedy as a synthesis of the Apollonian and Dionysian artistic impulses. He argues that the rise of Socratic rationalism destroyed the tragic culture of the ancient Greeks and calls for a rebirth of these powerful cultural forces through modern art and music.
