本书是尼采里程碑式的作品，几乎包含了尼采的全部思想。全书以汪洋恣肆的诗体写成，熔酒神的狂醉与日神的清醒于一炉，用日神与酒神的象征说明了艺术的起源、本质、功用以及人生的意义。(It is a landmark of Friedrich Nietzsche's writings which almost encapsulates his entire philosophical vision. Written with poetic brilliance and blazing intensity, fusing the Dionysian intoxication and Apollonian rationality, this book employs the Apollonian/Dionysian literary dichotomy to explain the origin, essence and function of art, as well as the meaning of life.)
