I have translated the entire group of Nietzsche’s notes that start with a note giving Nietzsche’s location “Lenzer Heide” (Graubünden, Switzerland) dated June 10, 1887 (Lenzer Heide den 10. Juni 1887). From the first note, eKGWB/NF-1886. 5 [71] and then subsection ending at the final note: eKGWB/NF-1886. 5 [110].   Volume information, KSA 12. Nachgelassene Fragmente 1885-1887, (1967).  Section for this notebook is five. 5 = NVÜ3. Sommer 1886—Herbst 1887. Pages for this subsection are p. 211-229 (KSA 12). Over 190+ Nietzsche’s notes are also translated in this book. Additional materials from his published writing are included in the topics discussed. 

Principle conclusion: all of Nietzsche’s philosophical thought can be seen as his response to the urgent crisis of Nihilism.

Countermovement to Nihilism.

“The tragic era for Europe: due to the struggle with nihilism.”

(Das tragische Zeitalter für Europa: bedingt durch den Kampf mit dem Nihilismus).
