Content

Nietzsche Online provides additional and editorially improved content:

•Corrections and amendments that are compiled in the printed versions of the editions in special supplementary volumes are instead incorporated in the texts

•Content elements relating to a text or a text passage that were previously scattered over numerous volumes are now brought into direct relation to each other through hyperlinks (e.g. variations on a passage, original sources, etc.)

• Regular content updates: We continually improve and correct content, and will be adding new database features
