Essay-"On the Genealogy of Morals"

This essay begins to give me an idea of what a genealogy contains. The essay is based on two very simplistic words and ideas. It shows how over time the words "good" and "bad" have evolved. The essay elaborates on how the words had completely different definitions to each culture through the generations. Overall, the general words mean what they entail today. “Good” contains a positive image and “bad” contains a negative image. These words have specifically described people’s attitudes, egos, and ways of thinking of the course of time.
