The Schopenhauer Experiment (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

When depression prevents Professor Seligman from continuing with his great scientific projects, he finds himself drawn to the ideas of Arthur Schopenhauer, the 19th century philosopher Sebastián voraciously reads, admires, and idolizes. Both come together to carry out a bizarre and unprecedented experiment to solve a mystery related to Arthur Schopenhauer. Due to its precarious nature and lack of security measures, the experiment carries a risk of death. "Something as audacious as contacting Schopenhauer would require far more complex equipment and procedures, and there was nothing to indicate that the devices in front of him could achieve such a feat. Perhaps Seligman had overestimated his equipment and talent in the belief that his great scientific achievements could be repeated in a new, extremely ambitious experiment. If this one didn't work, then Sebastián would have nothing to worry about. The experiment would end quietly, he could return to Dresden, get on with his life and continue trying to escape his personal crisis. After all, so many experiments ended in nothing, in failure, or in a useless result. Why couldn't Seligman's imagination end in the same way?" This fictional novel pushes on our understanding of time, science, and reality, and is intertwined with vignettes of events in the life of the great pessimistic philosopher. An appendix adds an annotated chronology of the philosopher's life. Born in Buenos Aires, Guido Coburg holds a PhD in Physics and one of his main passions is philosophy. He lived for over a decade in Germany and currently lives in The Hague, the Netherlands.
