    The late professor Kaufmann was the first reliable translator of Nietzsche’s writings after WW11. Since then most all of the important books Nietzsche wrote have been translated by others as equally, if not better, than Kaufmann. However, all American translators of Nietzsche’s works still have a high regard for Kaufmann’s translations. This collection of basic writings by Nietzsche translated by Kaufmann is a good place to start but to gain a greater understanding of Nietzsche you have to read the rest of his books.
