About this product

Product Information

Volume 1 of the definitive English translation of one of the most important philosophical works of the 19th century, the basic statement in one important stream of post-Kantian thought. Arthur Schopenhauer's Die Welt als Wille und Vorstellung is one of the most important philosophical works of the nineteenth century, the basic statement of one important stream of post-Kantian thought. It is without question Schopenhauer's greatest work. Conceived and published before the philosopher was 30 and expanded 25 years later, it is the summation of a lifetime of thought.For 70 years, the only unabridged English translation of this work was the Haldane-Kemp collaboration. In 1958, a new translation by E. F. J. Payne appeared that decisively supplanted the older one. Payne's translation is superior because it corrects nearly 1,000 errors and omissions in the Haldane-Kemp translation, and it is based on the definitive 1937 German edition of Schopenhauer's work prepared by Dr. Arthur Hubscher. Payne's edition is the first to translate into English the text's many quotations in half a dozen languages. It is thus the most useful edition for the student or teacher.

  • Compelling Philosophical Arguments - Not for the faint hearted !

    I wanted an authentic book on philosophy, rather than a modern "bite sized pieces" type of book. This was written in the early 19th Century, as such it was not edited as we would expect by modern publishes. Hence the author is allowed to meander around a philosophical point, seemingly repeating himself. I ticked " Would you recommend it" = yes. In the appropriate hands (and head) the author makes some compelling arguments therefore it is to be recommended however, I feel this book is appropriate to a student of philosophy however, its a heavy read for the novice.

  • Book to read twice

    Start with Kant then move to Schopehauer. Remember we never see, hear or touch reality.
