Arthur Schopenhauer's "The Wisdom of Life" is a compelling exploration into the nature of happiness and fulfillment. Written by a renowned 19th-century philosopher, this work delves into human desires and motivations, offering a unique perspective on finding meaning in life.

'The two foes of human happiness are pain and boredom.' Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) was one of the most influential philosophers of the 19th century because his humanistic, atheistic, if pessimistic views chimed with a new secularism that was emerging from a Western society dominated by religion. Despite his rather forbidding image (and a few outdated views), he is one of the most approachable German philosophers, and this is certainly evident in these two key works, The Wisdom of Life and Counsels and Maxims.

Philosophe allemand, Arthur Schopenhauer expose sa philosophie, très tôt élaborée, dans son ouvrage majeur "Le Monde comme volonté et comme représentation" (1819) où il énonce que : "La volonté singulière d'un individu n'a qu'une existence illusoire, elle est de toutes parts immergée dans le jeu infini et absurde d'une réalité qui la dépasse et finit par la détruire".

The best summary of this book is ‘being right doesn’t mean you’re gonna win, and this is why’. It’s the ultimate guide to spotting the many different kinds of bullshit people pull in order to win over the crowd, rather than argue the point at hand. There’s very few of them that don’t immediately bring examples to mind, and having it laid out clearly like this is the perfect armour to stop people derailing you.

Arthur Schopenhauer's The Art of Literature is a lively, illuminating and brutally honest collection of essays on literary style and values, writers and critics, and the nature of genius. Schopenhauer advises seclusion and independent thought, criticizes Pliny's reading habits, and explains the pitfalls of certain schools of thought and even virtues like modesty. His thought-provoking arguments, caustic wit, and accessible style make this a must for any aspiring writer.

The original edition of The World as Will and Idea appeared in 1818, but in 1844 Schopenhauer published an expanded version. It contained the 'Criticism of the Kantian Philosophy', a lengthy document; and Supplements to the First Book ( The Doctrine of the Idea of Perception) and the Second Book ( The Doctrine of Perception or Knowledge of the Understanding).

In this final part to Schopenhauer's momentous and hugely influential work, his original and wide-ranging observations are as lively as ever. Though cast as a 'pessimist' by history, he is anything but that to read - and listen to. Here are the last supplementary comments his original work (published 1818), the fruit of decades of further reflection.

Schopenhauer was just 30 when his magnum opus, Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung, a work of considerable learning and innovation of thought, first appeared in 1818.

Much to his chagrin and puzzlement (so convinced was he of its merits), it didn't have an immediate effect on European philosophy, views and culture. It was only decades later that it was recognised as one of the major intellectual landmarks of the 19th century.

Counsels and Maxims is a classic work by noted German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. His work has influenced some of the modern world's greatest thinkers, including Carl Jung, Sigmund Freud, and Erwin Schrödinger. This piece was originally translated by Thomas Bailey Saunders.

Schopenhauer: here's when great philosophy can be somber, pessimistic, even brutal, and still resonate with a sarcastic laugh. He was among the first to contend that the universe is essentially not a rational place; in his most famous work, "The World as Will and Representation", he argues that the individuals of a species do not have as much free will as is ordinarily thought, as the only Will that matters is that of the species, which is to reproduce and carry on. Schopenhauer is very well-known for his radical stance on women, aesthetics, and rhetoric; he is the author of "The Art of Being Right", a playful manual designed to utterly crush one's opponent in verbal battle, and of the "Metaphysics of the Love of the Sexes", a hilarious application of the theories developed in the "World as Will and Representation".

Mit ebenso großer Klarheit und Eleganz wie im 1. Band seines Hauptwerks setzt Arthur Schopenhauer auch im 2. Band von "Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung" seine pessimistisch-voluntaristische Metaphysik des Lebens fort, wobei er, direkt Bezug nehmend auf Paragrafen des 1. Bandes, zentrale Gedanken seiner Philosophie weiter vertieft und um mehr als nur perspektivische Facetten bereichert. So finden sich in den hier vorliegenden "Ergänzungen zum dritten Buch des 1. Bandes" vertiefende Darstellungen zur Erkenntnis der Idee wie auch Bemerkungen zum inneren Wesen der Kunst.

Schopenhauer expone una visión del mundo como una dualidad: por un lado, la representación, que es el mundo como lo percibimos a través de nuestros sentidos; y por otro, la voluntad, la fuerza ciega y primordial que subyace a toda existencia.

Aquí es cuando la gran filosofía puede ser sombría, pesimista, incluso brutal, y aún así resonar con una risa sarcástica. Fue uno de los primeros en sostener que el universo no es esencialmente un lugar racional; en su obra más famosa, El mundo como voluntad y representación, sostiene que los individuos de una especie no tienen tanto libre albedrío como se piensa ordinariamente, ya que la única voluntad que importa es la de la especie, que es la de reproducirse y continuar.

"Ich gehöre zu den Lesern Schopenhauers", schrieb Friedrich Nietzsche, "welche, nachdem sie die erste Seite von ihm gelesen haben, mit Bestimmtheit wissen, dass sie alle Seiten lesen und auf jedes Wort hören werden, das er überhaupt gesagt hat". Und so wie es Nietzsche mit der Lektüre von Schopenhauer ging, so ging - und geht es bis heute - vielen, die an tieferen Einsichten in die Möglichkeiten und Bedingtheiten unserer Erkenntnisfähigkeit in die Welt interessiert sind.

Gli aforismi su "La saggezza della vita di Arthur Schopenhauer" costituiscono un classico della letteratura di uno dei maggiori moralisti di tutti i tempi. L'opera indica una via che dovrebbe consentirci di vivere più serenamente o il meno infelicemente possibile. "Bastare a se stesso, esser per se stesso tutto in tutto, e poter dire: "Omnia mea mecum porto" (porto con me tutte le cose mie), ecco certamente la condizione più favorevole per la nostra felicità". Arthur Schopenhauer è stato un filosofo tedesco, cittadino espatriato del regno di Prussia.

Opérant une distinction entre libertés physique, intellectuelle et morale, Schopenhauer interroge ici à la fois le concept de liberté et celui de conscience au regard d'une question simple dont la réponse possède pourtant des profondeurs abyssales : Que signifie vouloir quelque chose ?

Schopenhauer: Här är när stora filosofi kan vara dyster, pessimistisk, även brutal, och fortfarande genljuder med en sarkastisk skratt. Han var bland de första att hävda att universum är i grunden inte en rationell plats; i hans kända verk, Världen som vilja och föreställning, hävdar han att individer av en art som inte så mycket fri vilja som vanligt tänkte, som den enda Will som räknas är att av de arter som reproducerar och fortsätter.

In seinem philosophischen Hauptwerk Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung verwirft Arthur Schopenhauer jede Form von Glücklehre und entwickelt aus einem einzigen genialen Gedanken heraus eine denkbar pessimistische Sicht auf das Dasein als solches und eine Lehre von der Verneinung des Willens zum Leben. Kaum an einer anderen Stelle in seinem Werk spricht er dies so klar und so ausführlich aus wie in den hier zu hörenden Ergänzungen zum vierten Buch des 1. Bandes seines Hauptwerks.

El arte del buen vivir, como manifiesta expresamente su autor, Arthur Schopenhauer uno de los más grandes e influyentes filósofos del siglo XIX, procura dar lección sobre el modo de tener una vida lo más genuina y feliz posible, una de las aspiraciones humanas primigenias y anterior a cualquier meditación filosófica o en torno a ella, pero cuyo logro resulta realmente arduo para aquellos que desean prescindir de toda reflexión y pauta para alcanzar el tan codiciado objetivo.
