Arthur Schopenhauer - Philosophical Works (29 books) torrent

ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER (1788-1860) was a German philosopher who was primarily important as the exponent of a metaphysical doctrine of the will in immediate reaction against Hegelian idealism.

He is best known for THE WORLD AS WILL AND REPRESENTATION (1819, expanded 1844) -- here presented in 4 translations -- in which he claimed that our world is driven by a fundamentally dissatisfied will, continually seeking satisfaction. Proceeding from the transcendental idealism of Kant, Schopenhauer developed an atheistic metaphysical and ethical system that has been described as an exemplary manifestation of philosophical pessimism. He was among the first thinkers in Western philosophy to share and affirm significant tenets of Eastern philosophy (e.g., asceticism, the world-as-appearance), having initially arrived at similar conclusions as the result of his own philosophical work.

Though his work failed to garner substantial attention during his life, Schopenhauer has had a posthumous impact across various disciplines, including philosophy, literature, and science. His writing on aesthetics, morality, and psychology exerted important influence on thinkers and artists throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.
