This new translation is the first to be published in a twenty-volume English-language edition of The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche, the first complete, critical, and annotated translation of all of Nietzsche's work. The Stanford edition is based on the Colli-Montinari edition, which has received universal praise: "It has revolutionized our understanding of one of the greatest German thinkers"; "Scholars can be confident for the first time of having a trustworthy text."
Under the title Unzeitgemässe Betrachtungen, Nietzsche collected four essays published separately between 1873 and 1876: "David Strauss the Confessor and the Writer," "On the Utility and Liability of History for Life," "Schopenhauer as Educator," and "Richard Wagner in Bayreuth." The title, newly translated as Unfashionable Observations, spells out the common impulse linking these essays: Nietzsche's inimical attitude toward his "time," understood broadly as all the mainstream and popular movements that constituted contemporary European, but especially German, "culture" in the wake of the Prussian military victory over the French in 1871.
The Unfashionable Observations are foundational works for Nietzsche's entire philosophy, prefiguring both his characteristic philosophical style and many of the major ideas he would develop in his later writings. This is the first English translation to include Nietzsche's variants to the published text.

Review
"The Colli-Montinari edition has revolutionized our understanding of one of the greatest German thinkers. As a result of the new view opened up by this edition, Nietzsche has clearly come into his own as one of the more important philosophers of modern times. The English-language edition should become a classic that will be used by generations of scholars."—David E. Wellbery, The Johns Hopkins University
"The Colli-Montinari critical edition of Nietzsche's works is one of the most important works of scholarship in the humanities in the last quarter century. It was not until after World War II that one began to realize the extent to which Nietzsche's notebooks had been tampered with, jumbled, badly deciphered, and poorly edited, and it was not until the Colli-Montinari edition that scholars could be confident for the first time of having a trustworthy text."—Van A. Harvey, Stanford University

From the Inside Flap
This new translation is the first to be published in a twenty-volume English-language edition of The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche, the first complete, critical, and annotated translation of all of Nietzsche’s work. The Stanford edition is based on the Colli-Montinari edition, which has received universal praise: “It has revolutionized our understanding of one of the greatest German thinkers”; “Scholars can be confident for the first time of having a trustworthy text.”
Under the title Unzeitgemässe Betrachtungen, Nietzsche collected four essays published separately between 1873 and 1876: “David Strauss the Confessor and the Writer,” “On the Utility and Liability of History for Life,” “Schopenhauer as Educator,” and “Richard Wagner in Bayreuth.” The title, newly translated as Unfashionable Observations, spells out the common impulse linking these essays: Nietzsche’s inimical attitude toward his “time,” understood broadly as all the mainstream and popular movements that constituted contemporary European, but especially German, “culture” in the wake of the Prussian military victory over the French in 1871.
The Unfashionable Observations are foundational works for Nietzsche’s entire philosophy, prefiguring both his characteristic philosophical style and many of the major ideas he would develop in his later writings. This is the first English translation to include Nietzsche’s variants to the published text.

Some comments on the translation/edition
By MK
I felt compelled to write something here because the only review of the translation--which is, frankly, the only relevant aspect of this text for an Amazon review--doesn't give us much to go on other than "take my word for it".
The older generation of Nietzsche translators (especially those such as Kaufmann and Hollingdale) did us a great service. As with many authors, however, as scholarship grows, so too does the need for revised critical translations, which in Nietzsche's case is long overdue. Both Stanford and Cambridge U.P. (in the latter's newer editions) should be commended for their attempts to allow the English translation of the acclaimed Colli-Montinari edition finally to see the light of day long after the German, Italian, French, and even Japanese versions have been published.
Among the strengths of this edition is the extensive critical apparatus. Previous editions have been helpful in providing references to some of Nietzsche's more obscure allusions but this is the first edition to provide annotations concerning textual variations across various manuscripts and subsequent emendations to published copies found in Nietzsche's library. That said, however, while annotations are given by page and line number, all notes are given as endnotes *without* indications in the text. Aside from being among those who find endnotes (instead of footnotes) annoying, one never knows when to turn to them because the text never indicates when there is a note to be read. On the one hand, one can understand why the editors made this decision: there are simply too many notes so marking them all would severely clutter the page (see what happened, for example, to Pluhar's edition of Kant's first Critique). On the other hand, it's not much use having an extensive critical apparatus when it's not easy to know when to consult it. (This particular problem, however, is not the case with all of the Stanford volumes. Human, All Too Human I also has this problem but Dawn does not, one assumes because of the change in editorship.)
There is no clear winner among the translations themselves. As a random example from the second essay:
Nietzsche: "Die Geschichte als reine Wissenschaft gedacht und souverän geworden, wäre eine Art von Lebens-Abschluß und Abrechnung für die Menschheit. Die historische Bildung ist [vielmehr] nur im Gefolge einer mächtigen neuen Lebensströmung, einer werdenden Kultur zum Beispiel, etwas Heilsames und Zukunft-Berheißendes, also nur dann, wenn sie von einer höheren Kraft beherrscht und geführt wird und niche selber herrscht und führt."
Hollingdale: "History become pure, sovereign science would be for mankind a sort of conclusion of life and a settling of accounts with it. The study of history is something salutary and fruitful for the future only as the attendant of a mighty new current of life, of an evolving culture for example, that is to say only when it is dominated and directed by a higher force and does not itself dominate and direct."
Gray: "History, conceived as a pure science and accorded sovereignty, would be for humanity a kind of conclusion to life and a settling of accounts. But historical cultivation is beneficial and holds out promise for the future only when it follows in the wake of a powerful new torrent of life, for example, an evolving culture; that is, only when it is governed and guided by a superior power, instead of governing and guiding itself."
On the whole, Hollingdale's language tends to be a little more dated and even a little stiff at times. The Stanford translators tend to read a little more smoothly by comparison and tend also stay closer to Nietzsche's language. In the passage above, Gray is more sensitive to certain nuances (for example, Nietzsche's different uses of Kultur and Bildung) and his "historical cultivation" is preferable to Hollingdale's "study of history"; on the other hand, Hollingdale gets "force" right for "Kraft" and "current of life" for "Lebensströmung". In the end, I don't know if I would say that Gray's translation is *clearly* superior on its own as a translation but, when combined with the added benefit of working from more extensive source material, one could make the case that it is worth switching to the Stanford editions. (Incidentally, Gray makes a good case for why "Unfashionable Observations" is a better translation for "Unzeitgemäße Betrachtungen" than "Untimely Meditations", even if at first it hits the ear strangely.)
Among the disadvantages to switching to the Stanford editions are the fact that the series is incomplete (with a bizarre publication order) and that the paperbacks are tiny with little room in the margins for annotations (unlike the nearly 1-inch margins in, say, the Cambridge editions). When the entire 20-volume series is published (with the major works and related Nachlaß), it will likely be the definitive English edition of Nietzsche's works. But the virtues of these editions are collective and not in any single volume alone.
I don't really know how to conclude here since I'm myself ambivalent about these new translations. While it's a good thing a complete English edition of Colli's and Montinari's Sämtliche Werke is finally appearing, at the same time, I feel like anyone who would care enough about those benefits will probably be working from the German anyway. So while newer translations are generally preferable, I just can't bring myself to say that, at least for this particular text, the choice between Gray and Hollingdale is all that significant.

An Excellent Translation of a Transitional Work
By Tim Stuhldreher
Sometimes, as I channel surf past some WWF goon belting another with a chair, I can't help but feel that we suffer from the opposite of the problems Nietzsche discussed, and that a little more suffocating bourgeoisie-Christian 'good culture' couldn't hurt. But that's neither here nor there.
I believe this book is considered transitional Nietzsche, having been written after _The Birth of Tragedy_ but before _Beyond Good and Evil_, _The Genealogy of Morals_, et cetera. It consists of four essays: on David Strauss, history, Schopenhauer, and Wagner respectively. In my opinion the 'history' essay is the most interesting; Nietzsche asserts that too much awareness of history enervates the mind, robbing it of the raw vigor he considered so important. Not en entirely original thought, perhaps, but knowledgeably and poetically argued.
This translation seems to be clearly the best of the three I perused in the bookstore: the vocabulary is sharp, forceful, and true to what I know of the German. I don't think this is the place to begin one's study of Nietzsche, but if Walter Kaufmann's collections (The Portable Nietzsche, The Basic Writings of Nietzsche) don't give you your fill, you could certainly pick up this one next.

The Real F.W. Nietzsche would never
By J. Derks
The Real F.W. Nietzsche would never argue against dissent of his views. He, unlike Wagner, wanted no disciples. He wanted critical commentary, and above all, he wanted to be challenged. The reality is that he was challenged everyday to write, even in extreme pain and half blind. This translation is an admirable effort, but it does fall short in emphasis on what Nietzsche tried to (really) say. His odd, broken, and subtle humor has been lost in many English translations. In truth nothing other than the original German, read by an accomplished student of the language, can really give insight into his mind. This is the same problem that exists in Carl Jung's writings. In my humble opinion Kaufmann is still one of the best German/English translations available. Kaufmann dispels many previous myths associated with Nietzsche especially when it comes to National Socialism, and Darwinism, both of which Nietzsche himself despised. One last note on Nietzsche: His opinion of Noble Morality vs Slave Morality is true even more today.
