A new 2023 translation into American English from the original manuscript of Nietzsche's 1881 Morgenröte. This edition is bilingual- the original text is included in the back as reference material behind the English translation. This is volume 4 in The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche from Newcomb Livraria Press. This chronological, systematic set of Nietzsche's works is the first ever bilingual "Hauptwerke" or complete major works of Nietzsche published in English & the original German. This work is often translated as "The dawn" or "the dawn of day". This is a poor translation of the original title "morgenrote" which refers to the reddening of the sky in the pre-dawn hours. Morgenröthe, or Morgenröte in the modern spelling, literally means "Morning-Red", a unique German word referring to the reddening of the sky in the twilight hours before daybreak. Rendering such as The Dawn of Day" or just "Daybreak", but this misses the connotations of the word. Dämmerung is "dawn", but Morgenröte is a specific phenomenon of the predawn eastern sky. In Roman mythology, there is a Goddess associated with the Morgenröte- Aurora. In Greek mythology, Homer called this the "rose-fingered Eos". This has continuity into Christianity as the Red Mass, the beginning of two different antiphons in the liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church at Advent to celebrate Mary who is symbolized by the dawn, traditionally celebrated in the pre-dawn reddening of the sky. While there isn't a direct equivalent word for the pre-dawn reddening, the closest literal translation would be "The Reddening Dawn", but to capture the dramatic tone, I rendered this “The Scarlet Daybreak”. Nietzsche is speaking here of a hope for his own dawn out of the nihilism he was born into –“seine eigene Morgenröthe”. In his initial declaration of war against Metaphysics in Human, All too Human, Nietzsche writes “the will is ashamed of the intellect.” This initial foray into Schopenhauer’s philosophy of the force of the will finally manifest itself as the Willen zur Macht here in The Scarlet Daybreak. Through this lens, he takes on the whole of Christianity and the Judeo-Christian moral continuum. He considers religious experience, particularly Christianity, as a psychopathological phenomenon, an idea he articulates in every single one of his works. His perspective shifts from a Darwinian-Historical in Human, All too Human, to a more phenomenological-psychological approach here in The Scarlet Daybreak.

This collection of personal correspondence provides a rare window into the private life of the toweringnineteenth-century philosopher. Friedrich Nietzsche was the most iconoclastic philosopher of modern history. He is known to the world as the scathingly brilliant provocateur behind such foundational works as Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Beyond Good and Evil, and Twilight of the Idols. This was Nietzsche as he addressed himself to the public. But in this collection of his personal letters, we discover a very different man: Nietzsche the devoted son; the caring friend; the university student; the shy and distant lover. Comprised of correspondence between Nietzsche’s inner circle—including several revelatory letters to his sister—Unpublished Letters gives readers a never-before-seen look into the philosopher’s daily life.
