Nicolae Breban as an outstanding interpreter and creative receiver of Nietzschean thought

The book published after 2000 by Nicolae Breban «Friedrich Nietzsche. Maxime comentate» («Friedrich Nietzsche. Commented quotations») presents the author in a less recognized but quite important guise, that of translator and commentator of some passages of the German thinker, whose heritage has been and still is of extraordinary influence, although, occasionally, controversial on the posterity. The work offers us the chance to be initiated into Nietzschean thinking and to enter the creative laboratory of the notorious Romanian novelist, in his formation the writings of the philosopher having a substantial role, although the contemporary prosaist mentions that he sometimes distances himself from the position of the forerunner. Thus, in this volume, we find pertinent comments on some difficult Nietzschean concepts that have imposed themselves in the history of philosophy, such as the Overman (Übermensch) or the eternal return of the same.
