Are there any (continental) philosophers you would recommend over Nietzsche? I keep trying to move past him and Stirner, but have not managed so far.
In terms of interpreters of Nietzsche, it's considerably more difficult, but Deleuze wrote a really good book on Nietzsche that's worth reading.
Edit: As someone else mentioned, Walter Benjamin is also very interesting!
Like Nietzsche, he has a bad reputation for being moody and depressing, but the way I see it, he is really liberating and optimistic. A true humanist.
