Episode 3| Zarathustra Prologue Sections 4 and 5 Goals, Love and the Ultimate Men
In the third episode of Dissecting Philosophy with Dr McDonald, he is reading and discussing the fourth and fifth sections of the prologue in Friedrich Nietzsche's Thus Spoke Zarathustra.
The episode discusses several topics, goals and a goal-oriented view of life, love and its relation to knowledge, ideality and reality, and Nietzsche's concept of the Ultimate Men (unfortunately not like David Hasselhoff and more like Data or Spock from Star Trek.)
It also includes fun examples of George Orwell's 1984, Alan Moore's V for Vendetta and Shaun of the Dead.
If you would like to follow along we are using the Penguin edition translated by R. J. Hollingdale.
