Published posthumously in 1908, Ecce Homo was written in 1888 and completed just a few weeks before Nietzsche's complete mental collapse. Its outrageously egotistical review of the philosopher's life and works are redeemed from mere arrogance by masterful language and ever-relevant ideas — in addition to settling scores with his many personal and philosophical enemies. Unabridged reprint of the edition published in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Volume Seventeen, edited by Dr. Oscar Levy, published by T. N. Foulis, Edinburgh and London, 1909-11.
