Reviews

"Stanley Rosen has fulfilled this Nietzschean wish. His Mask of Enlightenment interprets Nietzsce's Thus Spoke Zarathustra with astute attention, and it delivers on Rosen's stated aim of avoiding both the obscurantism of postmoderns and the selective attention of analytic philosophers. It is philological in the best sense, balancing its consideration of detail with a sense of the book's larger context, as well as the context of textual predecessors to whom Nietzsce refers and responds....The book's admirable features are many. Its detail will, I am sure, reveal new facets of Zarathustra to any reader, no matter how familiar with it." Kathleen Marie Higgins, Philosophy and Literature
