Schopenhauer: metafísica e moral
Esta coletânea reúne estudos a respeito do pensamento de Schopenhauer com ênfase nos aspectos éticos, estéticos e metafísicos da obra do filósofo alemão. No que diz respeito aos aspectos éticos, são abordados temas como a possibilidade de se pensar a liberdade e a atribuição de responsabilidade moral em Schopenhauer, mostrando algumas limitações da concepção de liberdade schopenhaueriana como uma estratégia de solução ao problema da atribuição de responsabilidade moral às ações humanas. Ainda quanto a esse tópico, é executada uma comparação entre as abordagens de Hume e Schopenhauer sobre a atribuição de responsabilidade, ressaltando o caráter metafísico da pr...

Self and World in Schopenhauer's Philosophy
Arthur Schopenhauer's central philosophical achievement was his account of the self and its relation to the world of objects. Embracing epistemological, metaphysical, psychological, and physiological concerns, his dynamic system of thought reveals in a unique way the serious philosophical conflicts that can arise when we think about the self. This book is the first full-length study of this theme, and Christopher Janaway's approach to it is historical, yet at the same time has a clear philosophical emphasis. He explores in unusual depth Schopenhauer's often ambivalent relation to Kant, seeing him as a pertinent critic, especially on the issues of idealism and free will. He shows that, while accepting transcendental idealism and the notion of a pure knowing 'I', Schopenhauer was always concerned to establish a rival view of the self as willing: primarily active, embodied, organic, and manifesting pre-rational ends and drives. In the final part of the book Janaway highlights the influence of Schop

Schopenhauer: Parerga and Paralipomena: Volume 2
With the publication of Parerga and Paralipomena in 1851, there finally came some measure of the fame that Schopenhauer thought was his due. Described by Schopenhauer himself as 'incomparably more popular than everything up till now', Parerga is a miscellany of essays addressing themes that complement his work The World as Will and Representation, along with more divergent, speculative pieces. It includes essays on method, logic, the intellect, Kant, pantheism, natural science, religion, education, and language. The present volume offers a new translation, a substantial introduction explaining the context of the essays, and extensive editorial notes on the different published versions of the work. This readable and scholarly edition will be an essential reference for those studying Schopenhauer, the history of philosophy, and nineteenth-century German philosophy.
