The Birth of Tragedy is one of the seminal philosophical works of the modern period. The theories developed
in this relatively short text have had a profound influence on the philosophy, literature, music and politics of
the twentieth century. This edition presents a new translation by Ronald Speirs and an introduction by Raymond
Geuss that sets the work in its historical and philosophical context. The volume also includes two essays on related
topics that Nietzsche wrote during the same period.
