"Thus Spake Zarathustra" is the fictional account of the travels and teachings of Zarathustra, known also as Zoraster, the Persian prophet and founder of Zoroastrianism. What Nietzsche is portraying here is a new or different Zarathustra though, one with a morality alternate to that of the traditional. Utilizing a unique and experimental style, «Thus Spake Zarathustra» contains the famous Nietzsche phrase «God is dead» and is one of Nietzsche's classic philosophical works.
