About Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
F
Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche
1917–1979
Giorgio Colli (1917 – 6 January 1979) was an Italian philosopher, philologist and historian. A native of Turin, taught ancient philosophy at Pisa's university for thirty years; he edited and translated Aristotle's *Organon and Kant's Critique of Pure Reason* for Einaudi, a major publishing house in Italy. Subsequently, he produced the first complete edition of Nietzsche's work (including all the posthumous fragments chronologically ordered) together with his friend Mazzino Montinari. His work culminated in *La Sapienza greca*, an edition and translation of the "Presocratics" (a term he rejected). Interrupted by his death in January 1979, it was supposed to be in eleven volumes. **Source**: [Giorgio Colli](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giorgio_Colli) on Wikipedia.
