This chapter discusses the history of the complete and reliable German texts, their origin and the way they were handed down to us, as well as the way the present selection has been made. It indicates some of the basic lines of argumentation and some of the philosophical import of these texts. The present selection of texts is based on the new edition by Giorgio Colli and Mazzino Montinari (the KGW). The KGW numbers manuscripts chronologically within each part and, in turn, numbers the texts within each manuscript chronologically. The expression 'will to power' was presumably modelled on Arthur Schopenhauer's 'will to life', to which Friedrich Nietzsche's concept was meant to be the counterpart. The chapter also discusses the Nietzsche's reinterpretation of basic phenomena of human existence in terms of life and focuses on two topics. One is cognition, the other religion and morality.
