Giuseppe Fornari's groundbreaking inquiry posits that Friedrich Nietzsche's neglected importance as a religious thinker and his "untimeliness" are two factors that place him at the forefront of modern thought. Fornari analyzes tragic reports of Nietzsche's madness and seeks out the cause of this self-destructive destiny, which leads him to confront Nietzsche's fatal rebellion against a Christian awareness.
