Friedrich Nietzsche published Beyond Good and Evil in 1886 at his own expense. Its nine parts, in numbered sections that range from a line to several pages, attack the assumptions of philosophers, moralists, scholars and nations, and sketch what he called a philosophy of the future.

This edition uses the English translation by Helen Zimmern, first published in 1906 and prepared with the author’s sister’s authorisation; it was for decades the standard English version. The closing poem, “From the Heights”, is given in L. A. Magnus’s translation, as in that edition.
