Nietzsche Et Le Nouvel an, Paperback by Floccari, Stephane, ISBN 2350881245, ISBN-13 9782350881249, Brand New, Free shipping in the US When each New Year approaches, we all indulge in the endless and impersonal ceremonial of well-wishing (the sacrosanct "health-happiness-success" triad), onto which we graft a depressing string of "no more's"-resolutions that vanish a few days later. Supplementing those are the rituals and folklores which--throughout the world and in all human cultures--echo the same sentiments. Everyone takes part in this dizzying pattern time and time again with an uneven enthusiasm which wanes over the years. What if, the next time we open January's door--which will remain closed for still another year--it became urgent and vital for us to shift our attention from the universal countdown, with its sparkly greeting cards and true-false resolutions, to finally meet ourselves face-to-face? Such is the philosophical invitation which this book sends to all those whose heartfelt wish is not to indefinitely let yet another occasion pass them by to become whomever they want to be.
