Thus Spoke Zarathustra, a work of philosophical fiction by Friedrich Nietzsche, was written between 1883 and 1885. Although the protagonist is ostensibly the actual Zoroaster, there is a little historical parallel to the character outside of a few sentences. The majority of the book is made up of speeches by Zarathustra on a range of topics, with the phrase "Thus spoke Zarathustra" finishing off each one.The hermit who created Zarathustra was motivated by the sun, which can only be happy when it shines on others. Many of the concepts that will be covered throughout the book are introduced in the prologue, which is the first chapter of the book.They discuss the themes of the death of God and the emergence of the Übermensch while also introducing the idea of the will to power.While remaining alone in his cave, Zarathustra starts to become older. He receives a visit from a soothsayer one day who promises to tempt him into compassion. He comes to understand that the superior guy is everyone he has spoken to that day. The next morning, he sees a lion and a flock of doves outside his cave.
