Produktbeschreibung
The ''Studies In Pessimis'' is written by Arthur Schopenhauer. The Essays that are being provided here are an additional selection from Schopenhauer's Parerga that have been gathered under a title that is not present in the original. The first essay is primarily a translation of the philosopher's observations found in the section titled Night Reflections on the Lesson of the Death of the World, as well as excerpts from another portion titled Night Reflections on the Lesson of the Bejahung and Verneinung of the Will to Life. Such omissions as the author have made are primarily motivated by the wish to avoid restating arguments that readers of the other volumes in this series are already familiar with. The Dialogue on Immortality summarizes ideas that were extensively discussed in the philosopher's major book and again in the Parerga. The chapter of the original with the same title as this and the preceding volume is almost finished with the psychological observations. The essay about women shouldn't be read as a joke. It conveys Schopenhauer's strong opinions, and as a perceptive observer of humanity's flaws, he should be given a chance to speak on a topic that is currently generating a lot of discussion among us.

Autorenporträt
Arthur Schopenhauer was among the first 19th century philosophers to contend that at its core, the universe is not a rational place. Inspired by Plato and Kant, both of whom regarded the world as being more amenable to reason, Schopenhauer developed their philosophies into an instinct-recognizing and ultimately ascetic outlook, emphasizing that in the face of a world filled with endless strife, we ought to minimize our natural desires for the sake of achieving a more tranquil frame of mind and a disposition towards universal beneficence. Often considered to be a thoroughgoing pessimist, Schopenhauer in fact advocated ways - via artistic, moral and ascetic forms of awareness - to overcome a frustration-filled and fundamentally painful human condition. Since his death in 1860, his philosophy has had a special attraction for those who wonder about life's meaning, along with those engaged in music, literature, and the visual arts.
