Świat jest moim przedstawieniem – a jego istotą jest ślepa wola.
Stanowisko
Schopenhauer took up Kant’s distinction between appearance and thing in itself and gave the latter a name: will. The world as we perceive it is our representation, ordered by space, time and causality; but from within, in our own bodies, we experience it as blind, restless striving. Because this will can never be satisfied, life swings between pain and boredom. Relief comes through art, especially music, which lets us contemplate without desire; through compassion, the basis of morality, in which we recognise ourselves in others; and finally through the ascetic denial of the will. Close to Buddhist and Hindu thought, he deeply influenced Nietzsche, Wagner, Freud and Thomas Mann. His essay “On Women” (in Parerga and Paralipomena, 1851) is notorious for its misogyny.
Życie i kontekst
Son of a Danzig merchant and of the novelist Johanna Schopenhauer, he abandoned a business career to study philosophy. His main work found almost no readers, and his Berlin lectures, scheduled at the same hour as Hegel’s, failed. In 1821 he pushed his neighbour, the seamstress Caroline Marquet, out of his anteroom; after years of litigation the Berlin courts found against him and ordered him to pay her a quarterly annuity for life. He lived as a private scholar in Frankfurt from 1833 and only won fame in old age with the essays of Parerga and Paralipomena. From 1814 he read the Upanishads in Anquetil-Duperron’s Latin Oupnek’hat (1801–02), a translation of a Persian version, and later called it “the consolation of my life”; he studied Buddhism in detail only after 1818.
