Hi Nick,
The interview is with Giulio Preti from 1972, translated as "An Historian of Culture" in Foucault Live, p. 97 in the larger version and p. 77 in the smaller.
Q: "What is the Nietzsche that you like?"
MF: "Clearly, it is not that of Zarathustra. It is that of The Birth of Tragedy, of The Genealogy of Morals."
Yours,
Trent

Hi,Dr. Trent H. Hamann
I'm working on a paper about the concept of 'diagnosis' in Foucault at the
moment, and I'm trying to locate a remark Foucault makes in an interview
stating his preference for the Nietzsche of Genealogy of Morality over the
Nietzsche of Thus Spoke Zarathustra. Does anyone know in which interview I
might find this comment? I've spent ages looking through the edited
collections of interviews, but to no avail; I've even 'googled' it, without
any luck. Maybe it was all just a dream...
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
