Examining works by Deleuze, Foucault, Derrida, Danto, de Man, Eagleton, Rorty, Colli, Montinari, Vattimo, and others, the author provides a comprehensive picture of the many ways in which the philosophy of Nietzsche has been received outside German-speaking countries. For each country, Reckermann also systematically elaborates the preconditions that made it possible to bring Nietzsche's thought to bear on crucial questions of current philosophy. The book contains an extensive bibliography, a name index, and a subject index.
