The Birth of Tragedy (this is important to writing about the question Is his understanding of will to power nihilistic

See the attached file for the prompt details You will need to use the following books for the paper. 1. The Birth of Tragedy (this is important to writing about the question ” Is his understanding of will to power nihilistic?”/ 2. Beyond Good and Evil / and 3. Thus Spoke Zarathustra (can be found online, but the version from “The Portable Nietzsche” by Walter Kaufmann is preferred. 8 to 10 pages Chicago Format with footnotes for quotes. Make sure you answer the three central questions in the attached paper prompt in a logical, coherent, and comprehensive manner, please.

Student: I just wanted to point out that this paper requires a lot of reading from the three Nietzsche books I referenced and answers to all the questions in the initial prompt with really spot on references, if you are making argument.

Also, each question (in the first paragraph of the attached prompt) references a different book by Nietzsche, so I assume you will need to use respectively books for respective questions and have some sort of running theme

I just wanted to make sure you’re okay with all of these detail.

As you know, you don’t have to read all the books, but it is essential that you CLEARLY define what nihilism is in the context of making your argument and responses to these questions

If you are confused about any concepts while reading, consult the relevant sections here, feel free to cite Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy if you need it to make a good argument, but don’t do it too often.
