Zarathustra said this. There are three places where "God is dead" appears directly, the first time in the preface of Zarathustra, the second time in the charity section and the third time in the retiree section.

Throughout the book, Nietzsche should deny the old value system based on belief and obedience, and affirm the new value system based on life and human will. The former is based on God, while the latter is based on the earth.

At the end of the book, Zarathustra finally realized that he was not pursuing happiness, but "career", so he left the secluded cave again, "like the dawn rising on a dark mountain, warm and strong".

Extended data:

Zarathustra said that it was written in the 1980s of 19. At that time, the western capitalist world, including Germany, was experiencing a serious ideological and moral crisis, and many sacred national concepts, social order and moral concepts were being abandoned by people.

The writing format used in the book is quite unique. Nietzsche used a style of philosophical novels, similar to the style of dialogues between the New Testament and Plato, and also similar to the intonation in pre-Socrates' philosophical works. He often uses natural phenomena as a means of rhetoric and storytelling. The full text is divided into four parts, each part or even each chapter can be an independent article.
