NIETZSCHE
CITATIONS
References to Nietzsche’s writings are included in the body of the
text using the standard English title abbreviations indicated below.
With reference to translations, Roman numerals denote a standard
subdivision within a single work in which the sections are not numbered
consecutively (e.g., On the Genealogy of Morals), Arabic numerals
denote the section number rather than the page number, and “P” denotes
Nietzsche’s Prefaces.
If a particular translation is used, this is indicated with an endnote to the initial citation reference.
