"Den sidste Messias (English: The Last Messiah), published in 1933, is one of Peter Wessel Zapffe's most significant essays as well as concepts, which sums up his own thoughts from his book, On the Tragic, and, as a theory describes a reinterpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's \u00DCbermensch. Zapffe believed that existential angst in humanity was the result of an overly evolved intellect, and that people overcome this by \"artificially limiting the content of consciousness.\""@en .
