Vanaf Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712-1778) zijn we in de greep van het verlangen naar echtheid en authenticiteit. Naar de natuur, naar spontaniteit, jeugd, vriendschap en liefde. Meer dan 300 jaar geleden werd Rousseau geboren, maar de uitvinder van het ik is nog altijd onder ons. Dankzij sociale media snappen we meer dan ooit dat we onszelf moeten spelen. Denk ook aan de geregisseerde echtheid van het programma Boer Zoekt Vrouw en de door mediatraining gestuurde oprechtheid van de politicus. Er loopt een rechte lijn van Rousseau naar de smiley en andere emoticons.

Viktor E. Frankl, cuya primera crisis existencial le sobreviene a una edad tan temprana como la que tenía Mozart cuando compuso su primer minué, fue incapaz de no dejar su impronta en el siglo XX: el siglo del replanteamiento de todos los valores, de la vertiginosa aceleración de todos los procesos y de la decadencia de las costumbres sometidas a una constante manipulación cotidiana.

Rescatamos los pensamientos que Francesco Guicciardini, el gran padre de la historiografía moderna, escribió bajo el título de Ricordi. Estas notas aforísticas, que fue reuniendo en distintos momentos de su vida y en diversos períodos de su actividad como diplomático, permanecieron inéditas hasta 1857. Vecino de Maquiavelo, catorce años mayor que él, en la República de Florencia, su pragmatismo sujeto a las circunstancias del momento lo oponían en cierto modo al autor de El príncipe.

Con este libro, Nietzsche se adentra en el estilo aforístico que llegaría a dominar sus escritos, discutiendo una variedad de conceptos en párrafos cortos.

El resultado es una de las piedras angulares de la obra de su vida.
