Nietzche's relationships with typewriters

Nietzche said “I need a young person who is intelligent and knowledgeable enough to work with me. I would even consider a two-year-long marriage for that purpose.” (Kittler, 208)

“Professors at the University of Zurich ‘very much appreciated having emancipated women of the time at universities and libraries as secretaries and assistants’ (especially once emancipation ... was no longer synonymous with gender war).” (Kittler, 208)

For Kittler, a “desexualization of writing and the university,” though Nietzche “recruited his students from the women who had just recently been admitted to the universities.” (Kittler, 209)

Nietzche was regarded as “the most dangerous enemy of women.” (Kittler, 209)

Nietzche argued that “Love in its means, [is] war; at bottom, the deadly hatred of the sexes.” (Kittler, 209)

For Kittler, “proof of Nietzche’s media-specific notion of heterosexuality.” (Kittler, 209)
