  • The Philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche
    H. L. Mencken / Henry Louis Mencken / HLMencken
    Nietzsche left no systematic exposition of his philosophy, and so it remains the subject of intense scholarly dispute and interpretation.

The Philosophy of Friedrich Nietzsche by Henry Louis Mencken was the first, and many believe the be...

  • Damn! a Book of Calumny
    H. L. Mencken / HLMencken
    This work by American social critic H.L. Mencken contains brief mini-essays on a wide variety of subjects. While Mencken has been called many things: cynic, misanthrope and elitist, there is no doubt that he was funny. The mini-essay form (with pieces only a few sentences long) shows that Mencken’s wit sparkled best in the shortest prose. Modern readers should know, however, th...

  • Notes on Democracy
    H. L. Mencken / HLMencken
    Democracy came into the Western World to the tune of sweet, soft music. There was, at the start, no harsh bawling from below there was only a dulcet twittering from above. Democratic man thus began as an ideal being, full of ineffable virtues and romantic wrongs in brief, as Rousseau’s noble savage in smock and jerkin, brought out of the tropical wilds to shame the lords and ma...

His attacks on the contemporary Christian values of the day reached a crescendo as he proposed a 'higher morality' and a 'transmutation o...
