Dieses monologische Buch, welches in Sorrent während eines Winteraufenthaltes (1876 auf 1877) entstand, würde jetzt der Oeffentlichkeit nicht übergeben werden, wenn nicht die Nähe des 30. Mai 1878 den Wunsch allzu lebhaft erregt hätte, einem der grössten Befreier des Geistes zur rechten Stunde eine persönliche Huldigung darzubringen. [Hinweis Nietzsches zur Erstausgabe 1878]

This monologic book, which arose in Sorrento during a winter sojourn (1876 to 1877), would not now be presented to the public had not the approach of 30 May 1878 aroused too keen a desire to pay timely personal homage to one of the greatest liberators of the spirit. [Nietzsche's note to the first edition of 1878]

Ce livre monologique, composé à Sorrente durant un séjour hivernal (de 1876 à 1877), ne serait pas aujourd’hui livré au public si l’approche du 30 mai 1878 n’avait fait naître avec trop de vivacité le désir de rendre, au moment opportun, un hommage personnel à l’un des plus grands libérateurs de l’esprit. [Note de Nietzsche pour la première édition de 1878]
