ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER --- THE ART AND LITERATURE: ESSAYS --- A collection of essays from one of the great philosophers of the modern era, Arthur Schopenhauer. The German thinker contemplates subjects such as style, authorship, knowledge, criticism, fame, genius and thinking for oneself. Arthur Schopenhauer is an entertaining author to read, easy to understand, with a sly, dry wit. No need for footnotes or explanations of tricky terms, Schopenhauer's prose style is refreshingly clear.

Schopenhauer is known for his major work The World As Will and Idea, his philosophy of transcendental idealism, his studies of pessimism, his collections of essays and aphorisms, his incorporation of Eastern religion and metaphysics in his philosophy, and his impressive posthumous in?uence on philosophers such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Ludwig Wittgenstein, Henri Bergson and Oswald Spengler, psychologists such as Otto Rank, Carl Jung and Sigmund Freud, and a host of writers and artists such as Samuel Beckett, Marcel Proust, Rainer Rilke, André Gide, Hugo von Hoffmansthal, Stéphane Mallarmé, W.B.
