書籍簡介

隨着1851年《附錄和補遺》的出版，叔本華終於獲得了一定程度的聲譽，他認為這是他應得的。被叔本華自己描述為“迄今為止最受歡迎的、無可比擬的”，本書是一篇雜集的文章，其主題是對叔本華作品的補充，即世界的意志和表徵，以及更多不同的，推測性的作品。它包括關於方法、邏輯、智力、康德、泛神論、自然科學、宗教、教育和語言的文章。本書富有可讀性的和學術性，對那些研究叔本華、研究哲學史、和研究19世紀德國哲學的人來説將是一個必要的參考。

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, the history of philosophy, and nineteenth-century German philosophy.

Provides a new, up-to-date translation of this historically important collection of essays;

The first English edition to be translated and edited by specialists in philosophy and German studies, and to give thorough scholarly notes on the differences between editions;

作者簡介

亞瑟·叔本華(1788年2月22日- 1860年9月21日)，德國哲學家，其最著名的作品是1818年的《作為意志和表象的世界》，他將現象世界描繪為盲目和永不滿足的形而上學意志的產物。叔本華以康德的先驗唯心主義為基礎，發展了一套無神論的形而上學和倫理體系，該體系拒絕同時期的德國唯心主義的觀點。他是西方哲學中最早分享和肯定印度哲學重要原則的思想家之一，如禁慾主義、自我否定和世界即表象的觀念。他的作品被描述為哲學悲觀主義的典型表現。

Arthur Schopenhauer(22 February 1788 – 21 September 1860) was a German philosopher. He is best known for his 1818 work The World as Will and Representation, which characterizes the phenomenal world as the product of a blind and insatiable metaphysical will. Building on the transcendental idealism of Immanuel Kant, Schopenhauer developed an atheistic metaphysical and ethical system that rejected the contemporaneous ideas of German idealism. He was among the first thinkers in Western philosophy to share and affirm significant tenets of Indian philosophy, such as asceticism, denial of the self, and the notion of the world-as-appearance.His work has been described as an exemplary manifestation of philosophical pessimism.
