How do we feel about them updating Nietzche to be less problematic?
>updating dead historical figure's philosophyIs Marxism next?
I feel nothing.
Is this a British publisher?
>>25554509It's not changing his actual words because he didn't write in English, but "main morality" as a translation of "Herrenmoral" does seem like a bit of a stretch. "Lord morality" would be a plausible rendering, I suppose.
>>25554509>replace master>but not slave
the publisher wants broader audience or the workers are identitards? I am always divided on this one.
>>25554509"people" who do this and their relatives should all be beaten to death
>>25554509This can't be real lmao. I'm not a native German speaker but I'm pretty sure that "Herrenmoral" undoubtedly means "Master morality" and can't by any stretch be translated faithfully to "Main morality".
>>25554509Which language is the next lingua franca after Latin and English? It seems like the states and Britain are braindead.
>>25555179that's very anthelmintic of you to express this sentiment
Remember when they reqrote compsci textbooks because they didn't like master and slave?
>>25555310*rewrote
>>25554509Do we even know what edition or translation this is? I wouldn't be shocked, but I don't know if this is legit or someone ragebaiting on Twitter with bs.
>>25554509>main morality>the whole deal is that the most prevalent, the main morality is slave moralityat least Ortega does something interesting when he says that the real distinction is between "magnanimous-pusillanimous morality" instead of whatever this is supposed to be
>>25554509>this intervention [...] doesn't imply endorsement of the values described [in this work]Yet you changed a word>also 'slave morality' is unalteredlmao
>>25554513weren't "people" (french) just constantly doing that throughout the 50s-90s?
>>25554509Just call it nigger morality and white morality.Everything is just ragebait at this point!
>>25554509it's really sickening how these retards play these dumb word games to show how much they hate slavery, and then they turn a blind eye to actual slavery that's going on right now. If you hate slavery so much, go out and stop it!
Business idea: if you're going to translate these German texts so heavily reliant on certain keywords, why not clearly define said keywords at the start of said translations and then continue with the original terms?It only makes sense, especially when you've got cunts arguing over what "geist" should be translated as, and so on...It's not like anybody reading these texts will have trouble learning a few new words...
>>25554509>header on a new opening section>"digital edition">Palatino Linotype.ttfYeah this is just some nobody publisher, nothing serious
>>25554509No different than when Elizabeth Forster-Nietzsche updated it.
>>25554509>The term "slave morality" has been retained.Fucking kek
>>25554509>unnecessary barriersSounds like a power move. Master morality at work? Based academics tbhwy.
>>25554509Publisher? Translator?
