Wagner Edition
Thread Theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGAKgoclJ6A
Just finished reading pic related as my first Nietzsche if anyone wants to chat about it. Where should I go next with his work?
I think the most convincing aspect of The Birth of Tragedy isn't the Apollonian and the Dionysian, but his explication of Socratism, and Alexandrian library culture. There are definite insights into the modern culture contained therein and it's interesting how this Alexandrian culture has survived, contrary to N.'s predictions, what could be considered a revival of the Dionysian in the west during the 20th century.
Anyway, general thoughts on Birth of Tragedy or Nietzsche's other work?

Untimely meditation is also pretty good. I think it is important because you get a good insight in N's earliest thoughts and you can see where he originally comes from

You move on to his music

I always found his polemic poems against Wagner hilarious

Aus deutschem Herzen kam dies schwüle Kreischen?
Und deutschen Leibs ist dies Sich-selbst-Zerfleischen?
Deutsch ist dies Priester-Hände-Spreizen,
Dies weihrauchdüftelnde Sinne-Reizen?
Und deutsch dies Stürzen, Stocken, Taumeln,
Dies zuckersüße Bimbambaumeln?
Dies Nonnen-Äugeln, Ave-Glockenbimmeln,
Dies ganze falsch verzückte Himmel Überhimmeln?...
