Arthur Schopenhauer

"Arthur Schopenhauer (/ˈʃoʊpənhaʊ.ər/ SHOH-pən-how-ər; German: [ˈaɐ̯tʊɐ̯ ˈʃoːpm̩ˌhaʊ̯ɐ]; 22 February 1788 – 21 September 1860) was a German philosopher. He is best known for his 1818 work The World as Will and Representation (expanded in 1844), wherein he characterizes the phenomenal world as the product of a blind and insatiable metaphysical will. Proceeding from the transcendental idealism of Immanuel Kant, Schopenhauer developed an atheistic metaphysical and ethical system that has been described as an exemplary manifestation of philosophical pessimism, rejecting the contemporaneous post-Kantian philosophies of German idealism. Schopenhauer was among the first thinkers in Western philosophy to share and affirm significant tenets of Eastern philosophy (e.g., asceticism, the world-as-appearance), having initially arrived at similar conclusions as the result of his own philosophical work.

Samenvatting

"On Human Nature" by Arthur Schopenhauer delves into the fundamental aspects and inherent traits of human behavior, offering a pessimistic yet insightful perspective on the driving forces behind human actions. Schopenhauer argues that will and desire are the primary motivators, leading to perpetual cycles of need and satisfaction that ultimately result in suffering. Through a series of essays, he explores concepts such as love, egoism, and the illusion of individuality, portraying human nature as a constant struggle between desires and the constraints of society. This work provides a stark yet captivating exploration of the complexities and contradictions inherent in the human condition.
