The World as Will and Idea. E-book. Formato EPUB Arthur Schopenhauer - Passerino, 2026 -
Few works have confronted the human condition with the depth, severity, and brilliance of Arthur Schopenhauer’s The World as Will and Idea. First published in 1818, this monumental philosophical masterpiece presents a vision of reality that is at once metaphysical, psychological, and profoundly existential.For Schopenhauer, the world we perceive is not reality in itself, but representation: an image shaped by the structures of our mind. Beneath this world of appearances lies the blind, restless force he calls the Will—a universal striving that drives nature, life, desire, suffering, and human action.Drawing on Kant, Plato, Eastern thought, and his own uncompromising insight, Schopenhauer develops a philosophy that explores the roots of suffering, the limits of reason, the power of art, and the possibility of liberation through aesthetic contemplation, compassion, and renunciation.Dark, lucid, and visionary, The World as Will and Idea influenced generations of writers, philosophers, artists, and psychologists, from Nietzsche and Wagner to Freud and modern existential thought. It remains one of the most powerful attempts ever made to understand desire, pain, beauty, and the hidden structure of existence.Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860) was a German philosopher best known for his masterpiece The World as Will and Idea — also translated as The World as Will and Representation. Deeply influenced by Immanuel Kant, Plato, and Eastern philosophy, Schopenhauer developed a powerful vision of existence centered on the concept of the Will, a blind and restless force behind all life and desire. His philosophy is often associated with pessimism, but also with profound insights into art, compassion, suffering, and human nature. Although largely overlooked during much of his lifetime, Schopenhauer later became one of the most influential thinkers of the nineteenth century, inspiring writers, philosophers, musicians, and psychologists, including Friedrich Nietzsche, Richard Wagner, Thomas Mann, and Sigmund Freud.
The Wisdom of Life. E-book. Formato EPUB Arthur Schopenhauer - Passerino, 2026 -
In The Wisdom of Life, the great German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer turns his penetrating intellect toward one of humanity’s oldest questions: how can we achieve happiness in a world filled with uncertainty, suffering, and constant desire?Drawing on philosophy, psychology, and sharp observation of human nature, Schopenhauer offers a series of reflections on the elements that shape our lives—what we are, what we have, and how we are perceived by others. With clarity and wit, he argues that genuine well-being does not depend on wealth, status, or external success, but on the cultivation of inner character, intellect, and independence of mind.Practical, profound, and surprisingly modern, this classic essay provides timeless guidance on topics such as happiness, reputation, solitude, and the art of living wisely. More than a philosophical treatise, it is a guide to navigating life with dignity, realism, and inner freedom.Arthur Schopenhauer (1788–1860) was a German philosopher widely regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of the nineteenth century.

September 1860 in Frankfurt am Main) war ein deutscher Philosoph und Hochschullehrer.Schopenhauer entwarf eine Lehre, die gleichermaßen Erkenntnistheorie, Metaphysik, Ästhetik und Ethik umfasst. Er sah sich selbst als Schüler und Vollender Immanuel Kants, dessen Philosophie er als Vorbereitung seiner eigenen Lehre auffasste. Weitere Anregungen bezog er aus der Ideenlehre Platons und aus Vorstellungen östlicher Philosophien. Innerhalb der Philosophie des 19. Jahrhunderts entwickelte er eine eigene Position des subjektiven Idealismus und vertrat als einer der ersten Philosophen im deutschsprachigen Raum die Überzeugung, dass der Welt kein rationales Prinzip zugrunde liegt.
