It examines the status and function of Nietzsche’s psychological insights within the framework of his thought; explores the formative impact of Nietzsche’s “new psychology” on Freud, Adler, Jung, and other major psychoanalysts; and adopts Nietzsche’s original psychological insights on the figure and biography of Nietzsche himself.
