Thoughts Out of Season, Part 1 is edited by Oscar Levy and translated by Anthony M. Ludovici. It was published in 1909 by T. N. Foulis 13 & 15 Frederick St., Edinburgh and London. It is available on the WWW at Thoughts Out of Season Part One. It contains David Strauss, the Confessor and the Writer and Richard Wagner in Bayreuth.
C.G. Jung cites this as his first introduction to Nietzsche in his autobiography Memories, Dreams, Reflections (1989, page 102), and claims to have been 'carried away by its enthusiasm'.
