Nietzsche versus Paul

Abed Azzam offers a fresh interpretation of Nietzsche´s engagement with the work of Paul the Apostle, reorienting the relationship between the two thinkers while embedding modern philosophy within early Christian theology. Paying careful attention to Nietzsche´s dialectics, Azzam situates the philosopher´s thought within the history of Christianity, specifically the Pauline dialectics of law and faith, and reveals how atheism is constructed in relation to Christianity.
