How would you write about the formation of a true Übermensch? A man whose moral standards are totally his own, and whose desire is to attain true greatness in a nihilistic and sterile society? Is it a Sisyphean task? Is it even possible for a single man to define an era anymore?

The man of greatness is the one who reconciles habit with spirit towards never ending new heights. There is no other alternative

Anon, this has to be bait, but to answer your question you're coming from an artificial and inauthentic view of great men, heroism and truth and beauty. It is neither actually a Nietzschean perspective, while it pretends to be, and neither at all any relevancy in traditional thinking such as with Heidegger.

But to answer your question, The Divine and the Decay by Bill Hopkins, which thankfully you will never be able to get your hands on because of its rarity.
