In these two destructive works, Nietzsche offers a powerful critique of the morality and beliefs of his time. "The Twilight of the Idols" is a "great declaration of war" against logic, psychology, and theology, combining intensely personal attacks on his contemporaries (especially Hegel, Kant, and Schopenhauer) with a dramatic tour of his philosophy. At the same time, it lays the groundwork for "The Antichrist," Nietzsche's final assault on institutional Christianity, where he identifies with the "Dionysian" artist and comes into conflict with Christ: the only opponent he deems worthy of him.
