Reprint, stapled. Condition: Gut. pp. 5-36. From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - With dedication by the author to Jeffrey Henderson. - A little dog-eared, otherwise good and clean. - From the text: The impact Nietzsche had, for better or for worse, on the intellectual and literary life during the first half of this century can hardly be overrated; yet contrary to common belief it was only sporadic on classical studies. One classicist to whom Nietzsche meant much but whose scholarly work is surprisingly free from Nietzschean elements was Kari Reinhardt, and it was he who stated that the history of classical philology has no place for Nietzsche. Even 'the Dionysian', often thought and most so by himself to be Nietzsche's great contribution to the understanding of Greek culture, did not have to wait for him to be discovered: it had been commonplace among men of letters and classicists since the eighteenth century. It is true, there was E. Rohde, the devout friend; and W. F. Otto who was converted to paganism by Nietzsche's work; moreover, the scholars of the Cambridge School of Classical Anthropology Jane Harrison, Gilbert Murray and others founded their ritual theory of myth and drama on Nietzsche and Frazer: they endeavoured to render Nietzsche's vision of Dionysian ritual and Greek tragedy scientific (whatever that means) by fusing it with Sir James' anthropology.
