About this event

Friedrich Nietzsche believed that true thought arises in the open air, shaped by movement and nature. He carried notebooks on solitary walks, writing ideas that would later revolutionize philosophy. Though largely unknown in his lifetime, his works gained immense popularity after WWI. Nietzsche lived in an era of rapid globalization, witnessing vast changes in transportation, migration, and economic integration. This course explores his philosophy as he practiced it—outdoors. We will read and discuss his works while hiking, embracing his method of thinking en plein air. By immersing ourselves in nature, we aim to understand both his ideas and their origins. This class is discounted through the Anonymous Fund of the Marin Community Foundation.
