Nietzsche's 1872 "Über das Pathos der Wahrheit" was originally a preface to a book which he never wrote. In 1873, Nietzsche bound this and four other prefaces in a leather-bound copy and gave it to Cosima Wagner (the second wife of his later arch-enemy Richard Wagner) on New Year's day, 1872 as a present. This handwritten edition, which he titled "Fünf Vorreden zu fünf ungeschriebenen Büchern. Von Friedrich Nietzsche". The original copy is held in the Goethe- und Schiller-Archiv in Weimar, Germany. This archive is the oldest literary archive in Germany and houses an extensive collection of manuscripts, including a significant number of Nietzsche's works. The prefaces that comprise it were also published in 1901 by sister's foundation dedicated to publishing and preserving Nietzsche's works, Elisabeth Förster-Nietzsche. This and the other fragments from his estate were then re-published in various formats after that -including in a series titled "Gesammelte Werke" (Collected Works), later reorganized and expanded into the "Gesamtausgabe" (Complete Edition), which included comprehensive collections of Nietzsche's notebooks and other writings from various periods of his life.
