What is philosophy? What can philosophy offer us? What brings us to
think philosophically? Arthur Schopenhauer's writings offer
fascinating answers to these questions that have largely been
overlooked until now. In Schopenhauer and the Nature of Philosophy,
Jonathan Head explores the surprisingly rich and compelling
metaphilosophy that underlies Schopenhauer's work and argues that
it offers a vital key to unlocking many of the mysteries that
surround his ideas. Schopenhauer understands philosophy as grounded
in a deep wonder about life and the world that is universal to the
human experience, as well as meeting a fundamental need for both
explanation and consolation. This account of the nature of
philosophy leads to further important discussions concerning the
relationship between philosophy and religion, the value of
mysticism, and the possibility of social progress. Through
examining Schopenhauer's account of how and why philosophy is done,
this book sheds crucial new light on a thinker whose ideas continue
to both provoke and inspire.
