The World as Will Idea - Vol III

This text contains the third volume of the seminal treatise by the famous German philosopher Schopenhauer on the topic of Will. Starting where Kant left off, Schopenhauer proposes a new definition of the word ‘will’, making it a thing unto itself. Where other German philosophers are incomprehensible and obscure, Schopenhauer is clear and concise, detailing within this fascinating book the dualities of reason and emotion with a genius and originality still arguably unsurpassed in the universities of today. This marvellous exposition of metaphysics, aesthetics and ethics will prove a fascinating and informative read to anyone interested in the subject. This scarce classic has been elected for republication because of its literary and educational value, proudly republished here with a new introductory biography of the author.
