I can't believe I laughed at this diarrhea post, here OP, have a (you)

>we can know the noumena, the unknowable thing in itself, by way of our bodies, and das-ding-an-sic is the will 

i'm not denying the greatness of his idea of the Will, it's a great idea, but the way he gets there philosophically unsound. this is why he appeals more to artists than philosophers

thanks, i was literally having diarrhea while posting it lol

>"pessimistic metaphysics"

For as long as there's life, there's happiness. Get rekt, pessimist loser.

Schopenhauer is always right, OP is always mad.

>NO I DON'T WANNA DO A HARD THINK, LET ME BE A HAPPY ANIMAL

Western civilization isn't nearly oppressive enough (yet)

What is philosophically unsound about his metaphysics? He "gets there" from the standpoint of the subject, as cognizant beings. Unless you prefer the drivel of materialism or the obscurity of the Hegels, your claim is just baseless. I have my own contentions regarding his metaphysics, but it stands in history as a remarkable development in philosophy.

Him appealing to artists is another proof of why he was so great. He also "appealed" Kierkegaard, influenced Nietzsche, Mainländer and basically any philosopher worth reading. He was also admired by scientists such as Darwin and Einstein.

What's funny is that that letter is her mother scorning Schopenhauer because he made fun of one his professors writing a poem mocking him, costing him his Latin lectures in the university.

>Iganatius: the post

To be fair, his mom was a crazy bitch.

Imagine if these memes existed during his time

It did. Yellow press.

His sister hated his mother too

Incomplete truths. Her mother claimed she loved Schopenhauer, but hated how he presented to the world.

Schopenhauer didn't care about sales, what infuriated him was that he was known as "Johanna's son". He wanted the relevance he only saw later in life. And he knew that the test of time would be on his side, rather than his mother's.

He did have relations with women, and even had children out of wedlock that unfortunately passed away not long after. His failure was that a woman never fell in love with him.

It's me again, answering to this>>21943343

 I did not read that part:

>we can know the noumena, the unknowable thing in itself, by way of our bodies, and das-ding-an-sic is the will

Someone has either read only volume 1 of the WWR, or has not read it at all. To Schopenhauer philosophy is the correct understanding of experience.

The will is not the thing in itself as such, that was assumed without inquiry for explanatory purposes in vol 1. Since volume 2 and forward (P&amp;P), he is more clear about how that question falls into his metaphysics. He speaks of the will AS thing in itself. The will is the essence of appearance, toto genere, the most immediate phenomena.

he's literally me......
