The World as Will and Idea

Viac o knihe

Exploring the philosophical debate between Schopenhauer and Kant, the book delves into the significance of inner experience and the human will. Schopenhauer argues that the will serves as a critical link to understanding the Kantian thing-in-itself, challenging Kant's assertion that such knowledge is unattainable. He posits that the world is a manifestation of a singular Will, with individual wills as its expressions. This perspective expands metaphysical inquiry beyond Kant's constraints while avoiding the extremes of earlier rationalist systems.
