Arthur Schopenhauer - Philosophical Works (8+ books) (Size: 123.71 MB)
DescriptionARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER (1788-1860) was a German philosopher best known for his book, THE WORLD AS WILL AND REPRESENTATION [Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung], in which he claimed that our world is driven by a fundamentally dissatisfied will, continually seeking satisfaction. Influenced by Eastern philosophy, he maintained that the "truth was recognized by the sages of India"; consequently, his solutions to suffering were similar to those of Vedantic and Buddhist thinkers (i.e., asceticism). His faith in "transcendental ideality" led him to accept atheism. His work influenced many thinkers, including Friedrich Nietzsche, Richard Wagner, Otto Weininger, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Erwin Schrödinger, Albert Einstein, Sigmund Freud, Otto Rank, Carl Gustav Jung, Joseph Campbell, Leo Tolstoy, Thomas Mann, Jorge Luis Borges, and Mustafa Mahmud, among others.
