Sobre este e-book

A new 2023 translation of Arthur Schopenhauer's 1851 Pererga und Paralipomena, Part I, with an Afterword by the Translator/ This is volume V in the Complete Works of Arthur Schopenhauer by Livraria Press covering all of Schopenhauer's works chronologically. Pererga und Paralipomena is Schopenhauer's collection of 37 philosophic texts including various essays, aphorisms, poems, and fables, published in a two-volume format. The title works are transliterations of ancient Greek works for "side works" and "addendums". Its subject matter is broad and touches on everyday life and very specific subjects. This collection summarizes Schopenhauer's life works outside of his 1819 Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung. This contains his Aphorisms to Life Wisdom, poetry, fables, extensive commentaries on Kant, and even his 1851 "Attempt on ghost seeing and what is connected with it". Schopenhauer was critically influential on Nietzsche, and many Nietzschean themes are explicitly broken out here, including his Anti-Socratic, Anti-Metaphysical and Pessimistic understanding of the Will-to-Power, the life-force of nature severed by "heard morality".

Sobre o autor

Arthur Schopenhauer is considered one of the most important philosophers of the 19th century. In 1818, Schopenhauer published his most famous work, "The World as Will and Representation" ("Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung"), which presented a comprehensive philosophical system that combined elements of Kantian idealism with Eastern philosophical ideas, particularly those from Hindu and Buddhist traditions. Schopenhauer argued that the fundamental reality of the world is not the external world as it appears to us but an underlying "will," a blind and irrational force driving all human desires and actions. He is best known for his profound contributions to metaphysics, ethics, and aesthetics, as well as for his pessimistic philosophy of life.
