New Nietzsche Studies

THE JOURNAL OF THE NIETZSCHE SOCIETY
2008 NIETZSCHE SOCIETY MEETING
New Nietzsche Studies is a journal of continental philosophy, featuring new European and American reflections on Nietzsche's thought. The journal is edited by David B. Allison (author of Reading the New Nietzsche and editor of The New Nietzsche) and Babette E. Babich (Executive Editor of the journal & author of Words in Blood, Like Flowers (2006) and Nietzsche's Philosophy of Science (1994), in addition to editing Habermas, Nietzsche, and Critical Theory) along with an internationally recognized board of editorial advisors.
For twelve years since it was first founded in 1996, New Nietzsche Studies presents contemporary readings of Nietzsche reflecting a continental, and that is to say historically situated and contextually interpretive (i.e., hermeneutic), orientation to philosophy. Because such approaches to philosophy remain under-represented, New Nietzsche Studies is dedicated to offering a specialized resource for readers committed to the breadth and vitality of new perspectives on Nietzsche's thought.
Representing the scope of contemporary Nietzsche scholarship, New Nietzsche Studies publishes English-language authors from across the globe, both North and South, East and West. The journal brings non-English language research voices to the attention of English-reading scholars, featuring current translations from contemporary European and other nationalities (German, French, Italian, Spanish, Belgian, Japanese, Dutch, etc.)
New Nietzsche Studies also publishes selected historical text in translation, including a first time English-langauge translation of Ulrich von Wilamowitz-Moellendorff's Zukunftsphilologie! (by Gertrude Postl with Babette E. Babich and Holger Schmid) in the 2000 centennial edition.
Membership in the Nietzsche Society includes a subscription to the journal.
Note: In order to keep rates at their current level, the journal has reduced publication to biannual editions, binding two issues of the journal in one volume. We have not reduced the size or scope (but the last issue topped the mailing scales at over a pound). This publication frequency will be modified whenever possible to return continued as we actively seek new sources of revenue (including renewed subscriptions, library subscriptions, scholarly benefactors keen on Nietzsche in particular and on philosophical thinking in general...).
