This anthology aims to explore the meaning, entanglement and reception of the concepts of the 'barbaric' and the 'race' in Friedrich Nietzsche's thinking from his early work around 1870 until the end of 1880s. The contributions refer to both the historical and the actual dimension of this complex topic.
