Nietzsche wrote the rough draft of “The Case of Wagner” in Turin, during the month of May 1888; he completed it in Sils Maria towards the end of June of the same year, and it was published in the following autumn. “Nietzsche _contra_ Wagner” was written about the middle of December 1888; but, although it was printed and corrected before the New Year, it was not published until long afterwards owing to Nietzsche’s complete breakdown in the first days of 1889. In reading these two essays we are apt to be deceived, by their virulent and forcible tone, into believing that the whole matter is a mere cover for hidden fire,—a mere blind of æsthetic discussion concealing a deep and implacable personal feud which demands and will have vengeance.

Upon The Close Of The Campaign Of 1774, There Succeeded A Short Period Of Perfect Quiet, And Of Undisturbed Repose From Savage Invasion, Along The Borders Of North Western Virginia. The Decisive Battle Of The 10th Of October, Repressed Incursion For A Time, And Taught Those Implacable Enemies Of Her Citizens, Their Utter Inability, Alone And Unaided, To Maintain A Contest Of Arms, Against The Superior Power Of Virginia. They Saw That In Any Future Conflict With This Colony, Her Belligerent Operations Would No Longer Be Confined To The Mere Purposes Of Defence; But That War Would Be Waged In Their Own Country, And Their Own Towns Become The Theatre Of Its Action. Had The Leading Objects Of The Dunmore Campaign Been Fully Accomplished,--Had The Contemplated Junction Of The Different Divisions Of The Army Taken Place;--Had Its Combined Forces Extended Their March Into The Indian Territory, And Effected The Proposed Reduction Of The Chilicothe, And Other Towns On The Scioto And Sandusky, It Would Have Been Long Indeed, Before The Frontier Settlements, Became Exposed To Savage Inroad. A Failure To Effect These Things However, Left The Indians Comparatively At Liberty, And Prepared To Renew Invasion, And Revive Their Cruel And Bloody Deeds, Whenever A Savage Thirst For Vengeance Should Incite Them To Action, And The Prospect Of Achieving Them With Impunity, Be Open Before Them. In The Then Situation Of Our Country, This Prospect Was Soon Presented To Them. [mehr]

William Chambers Morrow (7 July 1854, Selma, Alabama – 1923) was an American writer, now noted mainly for his short stories of horror and suspense. He is probably best known for the much-anthologised story "His Unconquerable Enemy" (1889), about the implacable revenge of a servant whose limbs have been amputated on the orders of a cruel rajah. Morrow's father was a Baptist minister and the owner of a farm and of a hotel in Mobile, Alabama. The American Civil War meant that the family lost its slaves and by 1876 the young Morrow was running the hotel, having graduated from Howard College (now Samford University) in Birmingham at the age of fifteen. Morrow moved west to California in 1879 and began selling stories to The Argonaut, where Ambrose Bierce was just terminating a two-year period of employment. Bierce was an enthusiast of Morrow's stories (in one of his squibs, a nervous reader declares, "I have one of Will Morrow's tales in my pocket, but I don't dare to go where there is light enough to read it"[1]), and in 1887 probably recommended William Randolph Hearst to approach Morrow for material for the San Francisco Examiner. Several of Morrow's most notable tales appeared in this newspaper. [mehr]
