Adrian Del Caro, Distinguished Professor of Humanities and Chair of the Department of Modern Foreign Languages and Literatures, has recently made several important contributions to scholarship about the German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche. Del Caro’s translations of two of Nietzsche’s most widely read works, Beyond Good and Evil and On the Genealogy of Morality, appeared as Volume 8 of Stanford University Press’s 19-volume edition of The Complete Works of Friedrich Nietzsche. Del Caro’s scholarship is a major contribution to the massive project of translating the entire German-language Colli-Montinari edition of Nietzsche, the definitive critical edition of the philosopher’s work. Alongside this translation work, Del Caro’s article “Nietzsche and Romanticism” appeared in The Oxford Handbook of Nietzsche (2014) and his essay “ Zarathustra vs. Faust, or Anti-Romantic Rivalry among Superhumans” was published in Nietzsche on Art and Life (Oxford UP, 2014).
