Edwin Abbott Abbott was the eldest son of Edwin Abbott (1808–1882), headmaster of the Philological School, Marylebone, and his wife, Jane Abbott (1806–1882). His parents were first cousins.
He was educated at the City of London School and at St John's College, Cambridge, where he took the highest honours in classics, mathematics and theology, and became a fellow of his college. In particular, he was 1st Smith's prizeman in 1861.[2] [This seems to be an error by Venn: Colby's preface to Abbott's Flatland states that Abbott was 7th Senior Optime, Senior Classic and 1st Chancellor's Medallist in 1861; William Steadman Aldis was 1st Smith's Prizeman in 1861.] In 1862 he took orders. After holding masterships at King Edward's School, Birmingham, he succeeded G. F. Mortimer as headmaster of the City of London School in 1865 at the early age of twenty-six. Here he oversaw the education of future Prime Minister H. H. Asquith. He was Hulsean lecturer in 1876.[3] [more]

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (/ˈniːtʃə/[1] or /ˈniːtʃi/;[2] German: [ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈvɪlhɛlm ˈniːt͡sʃə]; 15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, composer and Latin and Greek scholar. He wrote several critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy and science, displaying a fondness for metaphor[3] and irony.
Nietzsche's key ideas include perspectivism, the will to power, the death of God, the Übermensch and eternal recurrence. One of the key tenets of his philosophy is "life-affirmation", which embraces the realities of the world in which we live over the idea of a world beyond. It further champions the creative powers of the individual to strive beyond social, cultural, and moral contexts.[4] Nietzsche's attitude towards religion and morality was marked with atheism, psychologism and historism; he considered them to be human creations loaded with the error of confusing cause and effect.[5] His radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth has been the focus of extensive commentary, and his influence remains substantial, especially in schools of continental philosophy such as existentialism, postmodernism, and post-structuralism. His ideas of individual overcoming and transcendence beyond structure and context have had a profound impact on late-twentieth and early-twenty-first century thinkers, who have used these concepts as points of departure in the development of their philosophies.[6][7] [more]

"Out Of The Veins Of The World Comes The Blood Of Me;
The Heart That Beats In my Side Is The Heart Of The Sea;
The Hills Have Known Me Of Old, And They Do Not Forget;
Long Ago Was I Friends With The Wind; I Am Friends With It Yet."
--Gerald Gould.
Whenever A Piece Of The Land Is To Be Set Apart For A Garden, Two Mighty
Rulers Must Be Consulted as To The Boundaries. When This Earth Child Is
Born And Flower Garnished for The Christening, The Same Two Must Be Also
Bidden As Sponsors. These Rulers Are The Sun And The Wind. The Sun, If
The Matter In hand Is Once Fairly Spread Before Him And Put In his
Charge, Is A Faithful Guardian, Meeting frankness Frankly And Sending
His Penetrating and Vitalizing messengers Through Well-Nigh Inviolable
Shade. But Of The Wind, Who Shall Answer For It Or Trust It? Do We
Really Ever Learn All Of Its Vagaries And Impossible Possibilities?
If Frankness Best Suits The Sun, Diplomacy Must Be Our Shield Of
Defence Windward, For The Wind Is Not One But A Composite Of Many Moods,
And To Lure One On, And Skilfully But Not Insultingly Bar Out Another,
Is Our Portion. To Shut Out The Wind Of Summer, The Bearer Of Vitality,
The Uplifter Of Stifling vapours, The Disperser Of Moulds, Would Indeed
Be An Error; Therefore, The Great Art Of The Planters Of A Garden Is To
Learn The Ways Of The Wind And To Make Friends With It. If The Soil Is
Sodden And Sour, It May Be Drained and Sweetened; If It Is Poor, It May
Be Nourished; But When All This Is Done, If The Garden Lies Where The
Winds Of Winter And Spring in passing swiftly To And Fro Whet Their
Steel-Edged tempers Upon It, What Avails? [more]

The Works Of No Composer Of Equal Importance Bear So Striking a
National Impress As Those Of Chopin. It Would, However, Be An
Error To Attribute This Simply And Solely To The Superior Force
Of The Polish Musician'S Patriotism. The Same Force Of Patriotism
In An Italian, Frenchman, German, Or Englishman Would Not Have
Produced a Similar Result. Characteristics Such As Distinguish
Chopin'S Music Presuppose A Nation As Peculiarly Endowed,
Constituted, Situated, And Conditioned, As The Polish--A Nation
With A History As Brilliant And Dark, As Fair And Hideous, As
Romantic And Tragic. The Peculiarities Of The Peoples Of Western
Europe Have Been Considerably Modified, If Not Entirely Levelled,
By Centuries Of International Intercourse; The Peoples Of The
Eastern Part Of The Continent, On The Other Hand, Have, Until
Recent Times, Kept Theirs Almost Intact, Foreign Influences
Penetrating to No Depth, Affecting indeed No More Than The
Aristocratic Few, And Them Only Superficially. At Any Rate, The
Slavonic Races Have Not Been Moulded By The Germanic And Romanic
Races As These Latter Have Moulded Each Other: East And West
Remain Still Apart--Strangers, If Not Enemies. Seeing how Deeply
Rooted Chopin'S Music Is In the National Soil, And Considering
How Little Is Generally Known About Poland And The Poles, The
Necessity Of Paying in this Case More Attention To The Land Of
The Artist'S Birth And The People To Which He Belongs Than Is
Usually Done In biographies Of Artists, Will Be Admitted By All
Who Wish To Understand Fully And Appreciate Rightly The Poet-
Musician And His Works. But While Taking note Of What Is Of
National Origin In chopin'S Music, We Must Be Careful Not To
Ascribe To This Origin Too Much. Indeed, The Fact That The
Personal Individuality Of Chopin Is As Markedly Differentiated,
As Exclusively Self-Contained, As The National Individuality Of
Poland, Is Oftener Overlooked Than The Master'S National Descent
And Its Significance With Regard To His Artistic Production. And
Now, Having made The Reader Acquainted With The Raison D'Etre Of
This Proem, I Shall Plunge Without Further Preliminaries In
Medias Res. [more]

Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (/ˈniːtʃə/[1] or /ˈniːtʃi/;[2] German: [ˈfʁiːdʁɪç ˈvɪlhɛlm ˈniːt͡sʃə]; 15 October 1844 – 25 August 1900) was a German philosopher, cultural critic, poet, composer and Latin and Greek scholar. He wrote several critical texts on religion, morality, contemporary culture, philosophy and science, displaying a fondness for metaphor[3] and irony.
Nietzsche's key ideas include perspectivism, the will to power, the death of God, the Übermensch and eternal recurrence. One of the key tenets of his philosophy is "life-affirmation", which embraces the realities of the world in which we live over the idea of a world beyond. It further champions the creative powers of the individual to strive beyond social, cultural, and moral contexts.[4] Nietzsche's attitude towards religion and morality was marked with atheism, psychologism and historism; he considered them to be human creations loaded with the error of confusing cause and effect.[5] His radical questioning of the value and objectivity of truth has been the focus of extensive commentary, and his influence remains substantial, especially in schools of continental philosophy such as existentialism, postmodernism, and post-structuralism. His ideas of individual overcoming and transcendence beyond structure and context have had a profound impact on late-twentieth and early-twenty-first century thinkers, who have used these concepts as points of departure in the development of their philosophies.[6][7]
Nietzsche began his career as a classical philologist—a scholar of Greek and Roman textual criticism—before turning to philosophy. In 1869, at age 24, he became the youngest-ever occupant of the Chair of Classical Philology at the University of Basel. He resigned in 1879 due to health problems that plagued him most of his life.[8] In 1889, at age 44, he suffered a collapse and a complete loss of his mental faculties. The breakdown was later ascribed to atypical general paresis due to tertiary syphilis, but this diagnosis has come into question.[9] Re-examination of Nietzsche's medical evaluation papers show that he almost certainly died of brain cancer.[10] Nietzsche lived his remaining years in the care of his mother (until her death in 1897) and then his sister Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. He died in 1900 following a stroke. [more]
