Nietzsche is the most controversial figure in the history of western thought, so has Nietzsche's works been tampered with?

Many people think of fascism as long as they mention Nietzsche. In fact, there is no basis for saying that Nietzsche is a pioneer of fascism, and Hitler's Mein Kampf did not quote Nietzsche's words. In that case, why do people associate Nietzsche with Nazis and fascists? Some scholars believe that it is because someone tampered with Nietzsche's works.

You know, Nietzsche was unmarried all his life, and he has been in close contact with his sister Elizabeth Walster Nietzsche. Moreover, Nietzsche's sister had a strong racist ideal, so she married bernhardt Foster, who was anti-Semitic at that time. In order to realize her racist ideal, she and her husband went to Paraguay to establish Teutonic immigrant village, but what she didn't expect was that she planned to have an abortion and her husband committed suicide. At the same time, Nietzsche's sister learned that Nietzsche was crazy. So he returned to Weimar on 1897 to take care of his brother who could not take care of himself. During this period, she collected Nietzsche's manuscripts and monopolized the publishing rights of Nietzsche's works.

After Nietzsche's death, Elizabeth claimed to be the interpreter of Nietzsche's copyright. In the process of sorting out Nietzsche's manuscripts, Elizabeth detained some of them and tampered with some of them at the same time, making the contents of the manuscripts close to fascism. Among them, the most serious tampering is Nietzsche's later work, namely "Will to Power". After the publication, Elizabeth announced that it was Nietzsche's masterpiece.

196 1 in order to translate Nietzsche's works, Italian scholars Monti and Corey went to the German archives to consult all Nietzsche's manuscripts, but found that important papers and fragments were abandoned.
