Excerpt from The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche, Vol. 9: The Dawn of Day When Nietzsche called his book The Dawn of Day, he was far from giving it a merely fanciful title to attract the attention of that large section of the public which judges books by their titles rather than by their contents. The Dawn of Day represents, figuratively, the dawn of Nietzsche's own philo sophy. Hitherto he had been considerably in¿u enced in his outlook, if not in his actual thoughts, by Schopenhauer, Wagner, and perhaps also Comte. Human, all - too-haman, belongs to a period of transi tion. After his rupture with Bayreuth, Nietzsche is, in both parts of that work, trying to stand on his own legs, and to regain his spiritual freedom he is feeling his way to his own philosophy. The Dawn of Day, written in I 8 8 I under the invigorating in¿u ence of a Genoese spring, is the dawn of this new Nietzsche. With this book I open my campaign against morality, he himself said later in his auto biography, the Ecce Homo.
