Produktbeschreibung
A bold doorway to the past, opened anew. The Essays Of Arthur Schopenhauer; The Art Of Literature invites readers to walk with a master of thought through the rooms of literature, culture, and philosophy. This carefully curated edition reintroduces Schopenhauer's radiant, provocative essays as a living conversation about art, aesthetics and the moral questions that shape our culture. With wit and precision, he blends literary criticism, philosophy essays, and cultural critique into a single, lucid panorama-a guide for students of philosophy and a delight for general readers alike. The prose is clear, humane, and quietly transformative, inviting reflection on how Plato and German philosophy entwine with nineteenth century europe and central europe, and how Nietzsche's shadow looms over modern thought. Schopenhauer's essays are both scholarly and accessible, offering rigorous ideas without cloying jargon. This is more than a reprint; it is a cultural treasure that preserves a pivotal voice in the conversation about art, literature, and meaning. The book stands as a milestone in the lineage of literary criticism and moral philosophy, a touchstone for lovers of the essay collection and for anyone curious about the roots of critical culture. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
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.
