I am not sure about any Nietzsche texts per se, although THUS SPAKE
ZARATHRUSTRA and BEYOND GOOD AND EVIL spring to mind. Another text that
does spring to mind which uses Nietzsche as a starting point and then
focuses on the frightening similarities between what passes for radical
left postmodern philosophy and the fascist philosophies proceeding from
Nietzsche through the Weimar years, especially Heidegger. As the book is
a collection of essays, the author also drags in de Man and Derrida
with some cursory glances off Deleuze, Baudrillard and Foucault. It may
not quite fit your syllabus but it'd definitely stimulate some interesting
discussions/furore. The book is:

Labyrinths : explorations in the critical history of ideas / Richard Wolin.
Amherst : University of Massachusetts Press, 1995.
ISBN 0870239899; 0870239902 (pbk.)

The criticism of Derrida's "[i]l n'y a pas dehors texte" style of literary
criticism and the moral cul-de-sac to which it leads would be interesting
for any class dealing with literary theory.  Ted
