Schopenhauer on the Character of the World: The Metaphysics of Will (UC Press Voices Revived)

Schopenhauer on the Character of the World: The Metaphysics of Will (UC Press Voices Revived) by John E. Atwell
English | March 17, 1995 | ISBN: 0520087704 | True EPUB | 240 pages | 4.4 MB

The most extensive English-language study of Schopenhauer's metaphysics of the will yet published, this book represents a major contribution to Schopenhauer scholarship.

Here, John E. Atwell critically but sympathetically examines the philosopher's main work, The World as Will and Representation, demonstrating that the philosophical system it puts forth does constitute a consistent whole. The author holds that this system is centered on a single thought, "The world is self-knowledge of the will." He then traces this unifying concept through the four books of The World as Will and Representation, and, in the process, dissolves the work's alleged inconsistencies.
