Die Sammlung Von den ersten und letzten Dingen stammt aus Friedrich Nietzsches Werk Menschliches, Allzumenschliches und beschäftigt sich mit den großen Fragen der Philosophie: Woher kommen wir? Was können wir erkennen? Was bleibt am Ende? In knappen, gedankenscharfen Aphorismen entfaltet Nietzsche eine radikale Kritik an traditionellen Wahrheiten, Metaphysik und religiösen Weltdeutungen. Er zeigt: Zwischen Anfang und Ende liegt nicht Wahrheit – sondern Perspektive, Irrtum und die schöpferische Kraft des Menschen.
