Cover illustration: Li Ding/Alamy Stock Photo Printed on acid-free paper Tis Palgrave Macmillan imprint is published by Springer Nature Te registered company is Springer International Publishing AG Te registered company address is: Gewerbestrasse 11, 6330 Cham, Switzerland Series Editor’s Preface Te era of German Idealism stands alongside ancient Greece and the French Enlightenment as one of the most fruitful and infuential periods in the his- tory of philosophy. Beginning with the publication of Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason in 1781 and ending about ten years after Hegel’s death in 1831, the period of “classical German philosophy” transformed whole felds of phil- osophical endeavor. Te intellectual energy of this movement is still very much alive in contemporary philosophy; the philosophers of that period continue to inform our thinking and spark debates of interpretation. After a period of neglect as a result of the early analytic philosophers’ rejection of idealism, interest in the feld has grown exponentially in recent years. Indeed, the study of German Idealism has perhaps never been more active in the English-speaking world than it is today. Many books appear every year that ofer historical/interpretive approaches to understanding the work of the German Idealists, and many others adopt and develop their insights and apply them to contemporary issues in epistemology, meta- physics, ethics, politics, and aesthetics, among other felds. In addition, a number of international journals are devoted to idealism as a whole and to specifc idealist philosophers, and journals in both the history of philosophy and contemporary philosophies have regular contributions on the German Idealists. In numerous countries, there are regular conferences and study groups run by philosophical associations that focus on this period and its key fgures, especially Kant, Fichte, Schelling, Hegel, and Schopenhauer. As part of this growing discussion, the volumes in the Palgrave Handbooks in German Idealism series are designed to provide overviews of the major fgures and movements in German Idealism, with a breadth and depth of v vi Series Editor’s Preface coverage that distinguishes them from other anthologies. Chapters have been specially commissioned for this series, and they are written by estab- lished and emerging scholars from throughout the world. Contributors not only provide overviews of their subject matter but also explore the cut- ting edge of the feld by advancing original theses. Some authors develop or revise positions that they have taken in their other publications, and some take novel approaches that challenge existing paradigms. Te Palgrave Handbooks in German Idealism thus give students a natural starting point from which to begin their study of German Idealism, and they serve as a resource for advanced scholars to engage in meaningful discussions about the movement’s philosophical and historical importance. In short, the Palgrave Handbooks in German Idealism have comprehensive- ness, accessibility, depth, and philosophical rigor as their overriding goals. Tese are challenging aims, to be sure, especially when held simultaneously, but that is the task that the excellent scholars who are editing and contribut- ing to these volumes have set for themselves. Ellensburg, USA Matthew C. Altman Preface In many accounts of the history of philosophy, Schopenhauer’s thought has played a kind of niche role: He is, frst and foremost, the arch pessimist of the nineteenth (or really, any) century, bent on showing that sufering is the essential keynote of sentient existence, and that all of this sufering goes unredeemed in an atheistic world. Given these facts, he concludes, it would have been better never to have been. Second and relatedly, Schopenhauer’s importance in this narrative is as Nietzsche’s early interlocutor. As the tra- ditional view has it, Schopenhauer constitutes the pessimistic foil for Nietzsche’s atheistic afrmation of life, a foil who can now be safely ignored while scholars fgure out Nietzsche’s philosophical achievement. Although there is undoubtedly some truth to this traditional characteri- zation of Schopenhauer’s philosophical importance, if this is all one knows about his system, then all one knows is a caricature, for in addition to being a pessimist and a major infuence on Nietzsche, Schopenhauer also aimed to be the “true heir” to Kant and to ofer a superior transcendental idealist epistemology and metaphysics. Further, he ofered a neo-Platonic aesthetics and philosophy of art, which paid close attention to the phenomenology of human responses to beauty and the sublime, as well as to the specifcity of each art form and the apparent exceptionality of music. And Schopenhauer made original contributions to ethics, political philosophy, and the philoso- phy of religion that are just beginning to be reconstructed and appreciated. Tus, it is one of the main aims of Te Palgrave Schopenhauer Handbook to provide an oil-painted portrait, if you will, in the place of a line-drawn caricature. It aims to aford undergraduate students, graduate students, and vii viii Preface scholars in philosophy, intellectual history, and the arts, a comprehensive and cutting-edge view of Schopenhauer interpretation that situates the myriad facets of his thought in the history of philosophy and connects it to the con- temporary intellectual landscape. As with all of the volumes in this series, each chapter in this volume argues for a thesis, rather than being merely expository, but aims to provide schol- arly rigor as well as accessibility for frst-time students of Schopenhauer’s philosophy. Parts of this proposed handbook cover all of the major facets of Schopenhauer’s philosophical system: metaphysics and epistemology (Part II), ethics and political philosophy (Part IV), aesthetics and philosophy of art (Part III), and his philosophy of religion (Part V). Additionally, Part I treats the canonical as well as lesser-acknowledged intellectual infuences

  • The Affirmation of the Will
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-62695-9 - Schopenhauer: A Biography David E. Cartwright Excerpt More information 1 The Affirmation of the Will RTHUR SCHOPENHAUER VIEWED himself as homeless. This sense of A homelessness became the leitmotif of both his life and his philos- ophy. After the first five years of his life in Danzig, where he was born on 22 February 1788, his family fled the then free city to avoid Prus- sian control. From that point on, he said, “I have never acquired a new home.”1 He lived in Hamburg on and off for fourteen years, but he had his best times when he was away from that city. When he left Hamburg, he felt as if he were escaping a prison. He lived for four years in Dresden, but he would only view this city as the birthplace of his principal work, The World as Will and Representation. More than a decade in Berlin did nothing to give him a sense of belonging. He would angrily exclaim that he was no Berliner. After living as a noncitizen resident in Frankfurt am Main for the last twenty-eight years of his life, and after spending fifty years attempting to understand the nature and meaning of the world, he would ultimately conclude that the world itself was not his home. If one were to take this remark seriously, then even Danzig had not been his home. He was homeless from birth. But being homeless from birth did not mean that there was no point to his life. Schopenhauer would also conclude that from birth he had a mission in life.

    03/05/2017 Arthur Schopenhauer (Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy) Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy Arthur Schopenhauer First published Mon May 12, 2003; substantive revision Sat Nov 19, 2011 Among 19th century philosophers, Arthur Schopenhauer was among the first to contend that at its core, the universe is not a rational place. Inspired by Plato and Kant, both of whom regarded the world as being more amenable to reason, Schopenhauer developed their philosophies into an instinct­recognizing and ultimately ascetic outlook, emphasizing that in the face of a world filled with endless strife, we ought to minimize our natural desires for the sake of achieving a more tranquil frame of mind and a disposition towards universal beneficence. Often considered to be a thoroughgoing pessimist, Schopenhauer in fact advocated ways — via artistic, moral and ascetic forms of awareness — to overcome a frustration­filled and fundamentally painful human condition. Since his death in 1860, his philosophy has had a special attraction for those who wonder about life's meaning, along with those engaged in music, literature, and the visual arts. 1.

  • František Kupka: Sounding­ Abstraction – Musicality, Colour and Spiritualism
    Issue No. 2/2019 František Kupka: Sounding Abstraction – Musicality, Colour and Spiritualism Anna-Maria von Bonsdorff, PhD, Chief Curator, Finnish National Gallery / Ateneum Art Museum, Helsinki Also published in Anne-Maria Pennonen, Hanne Selkokari and Lene Wahlsten (eds.), František Kupka. Ateneum Publications Vol. 114. Helsinki: Finnish National Gallery / Ateneum Art Museum 2019, 11–25. Transl. Tomi Snellman The art of František Kupka (1871–1957) has intrigued artists, art historians and exhibition visitors for many decades. Although nowadays Kupka’s name is less well known outside artistic circles, in his day he was one of the artists at the forefront in creating abstract paintings on the basis of colour theory and freeing colours from descriptive associations. Today his energetic paintings are still as enigmatic and exciting as they were in 1912, when his completely non- figurative canvases, including Amorpha, Fugue in Two Colours and Amorpha, Warm Chromatics, created a scandal when they were shown in the Salon d’Automne in Paris. It marked a turning point in many ways, not least in the decision of the Gaumont Film Company to use Kupka’s abstract works for the news in cinemas in France, Germany, the United States and England.1 And as we will see, Kupka’s far-reaching shift to abstraction was a long process which grew partly out of his childhood interest in spiritualism and partly from Symbolist and occultist ideas to crystallise into the concept of an art which could be seen, felt and understood on a more multisensory basis. Kupka’s art reflects the idea of musicality in art, colour and spiritualism.

  • Now You See It, Now You Don't!
    CALIFORNIA STATE SCIENCE FAIR 2009 PROJECT SUMMARY Name(s) Project Number Stephanie S. Manson-Hing J1315 Project Title Now You See It, Now You Don't! Abstract Objectives/Goals The objective of my science project is to explore how the perception of objects, using peripheral vision, is affected by the objects' color. Methods/Materials I tested ten people from two different age groups: 30-60 year old adults and 13-15 year old adolescents. Using a vision protractor I designed and created myself for the project (made out of foam core), I tested which out of the colors blue, red, yellow, and green was percepted easiest and at the earliest degree on the protractor. Each person must focus on a pin in their direct line of central vision (90 degree mark on the vision protractor) thus forcing them to use their peripheral vision to detect the different, nickel sized, colored objects. I tested both eyes/sides of peripheral vision in my experiment. Results After gathering together my data, I concluded that the object colored yellow, for both age groups, was detected earliest and was easiest to see. For the 13-15 year old age group, the average perception was 9.5 degrees and the average for the 30-60 year olds was 11 degrees. I also figured out that green was the most difficult color of object to recognize. The younger age group recognized the objects earlier in general (with all four colors) by about 2-4 degrees on both sides. Conclusions/Discussion My hypothesis: If I test peripheral vision using the colors blue, red, yellow, and green, then the brightest color, yellow will be detected earliest and easiest out of the four colors, was proven correct by my experiment#s data.

    ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER: THE WORLD AS WILL AND PRESENTATION 1ST EDITION DOWNLOAD FREE Arthur Schopenhauer | 9781315507880 | | | | | Schopenhauer: 'The World as Will and Representation': Volume 1 I can say this was add-on because they really don't flow with how he dealt with Christianity anywhere else within the Volume. This volume is divided into four books. Essentially all of philosophy. The book is easy to read and assimilate compared to the works of other philosophers I have read. To be blunt: I cannot recommend this work to anyone. The Will wills, and the character and motivation of the person make it possible to learn, to gain knowledge, and this might alter the way the Will objectifies itself in us. If the whole world as representation is only the visibility of the will, then art is the elucidation of this visibility, the camera obscura which shows the objects more purely, and enables us to survey and comprehend them better. The happiness that we seek is more inclined towards self preservation and satisfaction of vanity. True, compared to Kant, Schopenhauer developed a more consistent and complete philosophy. With Schop, the Will, the thing-in-itself, is in you as much as it is in anything else. More generally, although S was an atheist, there is a lot of religion in the book, more of the order of religion as philosophy. Conceived and published before the philosopher was 30 and expanded 25 years later, it is the summation of a lifetime of thought. The only hope for the individual is to save his own soul; and even this he can do only by avoiding worldly entanglements.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-87185-3 - Arthur Schopenhauer: Parerga and Paralipomena: Short Philosophical Essays: Volume 2 Edited by Adrian Del Caro and Christopher Janaway Frontmatter More information ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER Parerga and Paralipomena The purpose of the Cambridge Edition of the Works of Schopenhauer is to offer translations of the best modern German editions of Schopenhauer’s work in a uniform format suitable for Schopenhauer scholars, together with philosophical introductions and full editorial apparatus. 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, history of philosophy, and nineteenth-century German philosophy. adrian del caro is Distinguished Professor of Humanities and Head of Modern Foreign Languages and Literatures at the University of Tennessee.
