Summary This book emphasizes that Nietzsche was still working on an unfinished manuscript until the last weeks before his collapse. It is unlikely that he would have returned to and continued Thus Spoke Zarathustra, but he considered publishing the fourth part (which had not yet been published) as a bridge between Zarathustra and the unfinished Revaluation of All Values. More importantly, during his last years he worked hard on revaluing values, often in line with what he had written in Thus Spoke Zarathustra. This present study performs detailed analyses of Nietzsches texts and late notes to examine the direction of that unfinished work; it will function as a stimulus to further research on the direction, interpretation and consequences of Nietzsches late thought. Thomas Brobjer is a professor in the Department of the History of Ideas at Uppsala University, Sweden. He has written several books on Nietzsche: Nietzsches Ethics of Character (1995), Nietzsche and the 'English': The Influence of British and American Thinking on His Philosophy (2008), Nietzsche's Philosophical Context: An Intellectual Biography (2008) and Nietzsches Ecce Homo and the Revaluation of All Values (2021). He has also written a large number of articles on different aspects of Nietzsches thought and on his influences, especially emphasizing Nietzsches reading and his library. Together with Gregory Moore he has edited the book Nietzsche and Science (2004). He is at present working on different aspects of the late Nietzsches thought.
