Produktbeschreibung
"The Art of Controversy," a notable work by Arthur Schopenhauer, explores the strategies and tactics employed in debates and discussions. Written around 1830-31, during Schopenhauer's final period in Berlin, this treatise, also known as "The Art of Being Right," was not published during his lifetime. Its first publication occurred in 1864 under the title "Eristik," by Julius Frauenstadt. The definitive edition, however, is attributed to Arthur Hübscher, who included it in a compilation of Schopenhauer's unpublished letters. This work is indispensable for anyone looking to engage effectively in debates. While identifying errors in others' arguments is valuable, recognizing flaws in our own discourse is crucial for continuous intellectual growth. "The Art of Controversy" serves as a guide to "intellectual fencing," emphasizing that rhetorical skill and strategic thinking are as important as the underlying truth in any debate.

Autorenporträt
Arthur Schopenhauer was among the first 19th century philosophers 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 instinct-recognizing 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 frustration-filled 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.
