Synopsis
A new, comprehensive English anthology What is the meaning of life How should I live Is there any purpose to the universe Generations have turned to the great German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer for answers to such essential questions of existence. His influence has extended not only to later philosophers-Nietzsche, Freud, and Wittgenstein among them-but also to musicians, artists, and important novelists such as Tolstoy, Thomas Mann, and Proust. The Essential Schopenhauer, the most comprehensive English anthology now available of this seminal thinker's writings, will open English readers to Schopenhauer's profound ideas. Selected by Wolfgang Schirmacher, president of the International Schopenhauer Association, The Essential Schopenhauer is an invaluable and accessibleintroduction to Schopenhauer's powerful body of work., "We should be grateful to Schopenhauer for managing to express the truth about life so beautifully." --Alain De Botton, author of The Consolations of Philosophy "Schopenhauer's 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." -- Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy The Essential Schopenhauer delivers the first comprehensive English anthology of the seminal philosopher's writings. Edited by Wolfgang Schirmacher, president of the International Schopenhauer Association, this indispensible collection affords readers a uniquely accessible gateway into the monolithic thinker's prodigious body of work. Just as the Harper Perennial Basic Writings series renders the work of Heidegger and Nietzsche accessible for English readers, The Essential Schopenhauer gives us unprecedented access to the complex ideas of this profound and influential thinker., "We should be grateful to Schopenhauer for managing to express the truth about life so beautifully." -- Alain De Botton, author of The Consolations of Philosophy The Essential Schopenhauer delivers the first comprehensive English anthology of the seminal philosopher's writings, edited by Wolfgang Schirmacher, president of the International Schopenhauer Association.

- t***u (488)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseA fantastic value on a brand-new series! Item arrived without a scratch, in perfectly new condition. A+++
- 5***s (1616)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseBased on the photograph I was expecting the vintage version I grew up loving as a child. I was disappointed that it is a later reprint with different illustrations which I could have bought cheaper elsewhere. Quality is excellent, just not the nostalgic version I hoped to give as a gift.
