# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche was appointed Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Basel at 24 in 1869, but resigned a decade later, health broken, to spend the 1880s as a solitary writer drifting through Switzerland, Italy, and southern France while completing his core work—aphoristic assaults on objective truth, master–slave morality, and the death of religion, alongside concepts like the Übermensch and the transvaluation of values. In 1889, aged 44, he suffered a neurological collapse and lost his mental faculties entirely, living out eleven more years under the care of his mother and then his sister, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. She edited his unpublished writings to serve her German ultranationalist ideology, fabricating associations with antisemitism and Nazism that contradicted his explicit opposition to both. Twentieth-century scholars corrected the record, and by the 1960s his work surged back, shaping existentialism, postmodernism, and continental philosophy. He died 25 August 1900.
