Because of Nietzsche's evocative style and his often outrageous claims, his philosophy generates passionate reactions running from love to disgust. Nietzsche applied himself to such topics as morality, religion, epistemology, poetry, ontology, and social criticism. Since the dawn of the 20th century, the philosophy of Nietzsche has had great intellectual and political influence around the world. He owed the awakening of his philosophical interest to reading Arthur Schopenhauer's Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung ( The World as Will and Representation, 1819, revised 1844) and said that Schopenhauer was one of the few thinkers that he respected, dedicating to him his essay Schopenhauer als Erzieher ( Schopenhauer as Educator), published in 1874 as one of his Untimely Meditations. Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900) developed his philosophy during the late 19th century.
