The comprehensive but incomplete International Nietzsche Bibliography , ed. Herbert W. Reichert and Karl Schlechta (Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1960) lists close to 4000 items in 27 languages. The bibliography in the 3rd rev. ed. (1968) of Kaufmannâs Nietzsche (see below) includes well over a hundred studies, as well as a detailed account of the various collected editions of his works.
Â
Binion, Rudolph. Frau Lou . Princeton: Princeton University Press, 1968. Supersedes all previous studies of Lou Andreas-Salomé and of her relationship to Nietzsche.
Brandes, Georg. Friedrich Nietzsche . Tr. from the Danish by A. G. Chater. London: Heinemann, 1914. Four essays by the critic who âdiscoveredâ Nietzsche, dated 1889, 1899, 1900, and 1909.
Brinton, Crane. Nietzsche . Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1941; New York: Harper & Row, Torchbook ed. with new preface, epilogue, and bibliography, 1965. In the new edition, the numerous errors of the original edition remain uncorrected, but in a short preface Brinton disowns the chapter âNietzsche in Western Thought.â The rev. bibliography adds serious new errors.
Camus, Albert. âNietzsche et le nihilismeâ in Lâhomme révolté . Paris: Gallimard, 1951, pp. 88â105. âNietzsche and Nihilismâ in The Rebel , Engl. tr. by Anthony Bower. New York, Vintage Books, 1956, pp. 65â80. This essay throws more light on Camus than on Nietzsche.
Danto, Arthur C. Nietzsche as Philosopher . New York: Macmillan, 1965. A hasty study, full of old misconceptions, new mistranslations, and unacknowledged omissions in quotations. The context of the snippets cited is systematically ignored, and no effort is made to consider even most of what Nietzsche wrote on any given subject.
Drimmer, Melvin. Nietzsche in American Thought: 1895â1925. Ph.D. thesis, The University of Rochester (N.Y.), 1965. Ann Arbor, Mich.: University Microfilms, Inc., 727 pp., includes Bibliography, 634â727.

ââââ. Nietzsche . 2 vols. Pfullingen: Neske, 1961. One of the major effortsâcertainly the bulkiest oneâof the later Heidegger: important for those who would understand him .
Hollingdale, R. J. Nietzsche: The Man and His Philosophy. Baton Rouge: Louisiana State University Press, 1965. Sympathetic, informed, and well written; the best biography in English, but the account of Nietzscheâs relationships to Salomé and Rée is dated by Binionâs book. Nietzscheâs philosophy is discussed in the context of his life.
