A concise spark: a wisely wry companion for the curious mind, The Essays Of Arthur Schopenhauer: Counsels And Maxims returns to light with the ring of a classics in lively, modern language. This complete essays collection gathers Schopenhauer's aphorisms and maxims into a single, readable arc, offering practical life advice alongside sharp ethical reflections on life. Its form-brief, biting, and capacious-speaks to both casual readers and serious students: compact meditations that illuminate day-to-day moments as well as the larger arc of thought. For philosophy students and lifelong learners alike, it functions as a portable library of insights, a guide through European philosophical writing that feels distinctly contemporary in its clarity and candour. Historically, Schopenhauer's work stands as a bridge in nineteenth century german philosophy, quietly influencing a wide circle of thinkers and readers. The text's enduring appeal lies in its lucid, often paradoxical prose, which invites readers of quotes to pause, reflect, and apply. Alpha Editions now presents this title as more than a reprint-restored for today's and future generations, it becomes a collector's item and a cultural treasure in a classic european anthology. Out of print for decades, it returns as a carefully curated, complete essays collection, suitable for both the reader seeking thoughtful aphorisms and the collector valuing a pristine, authoritative edition.
Autorenporträt
Arthur Schopenhauer (22 February 1788 - 21 September 1860) was a German philosopher. He is best known for his 1818 work The World as Will and Representation (expanded in 1844), wherein he characterizes the phenomenal world as the product of a blind and insatiable metaphysical will. Building on the transcendental idealism of Immanuel Kant, Schopenhauer developed an atheistic metaphysical and ethical system that rejected the contemporaneous ideas of German idealism. He was among the first thinkers in Western philosophy to share and affirm significant tenets of Indian philosophy, such as asceticism, denial of the self, and the notion of the world-as-appearance. His work has been described as an exemplary manifestation of philosophical pessimism.
