Schopenhauer's The World as Will and Representation is one of the
central texts in the history of Western philosophy. It is one of
the last monuments to the project of grand synthetic philosophical
system-building, where a single, unified work could aim to clarify,
resolve, and ground all the central questions of metaphysics,
epistemology, ethics, religion, aesthetics and science. Poorly
received at its initial publication, it soon became a powerful
cultural force, inspiring not only philosophers but also artists,
writers and musicians, and attracting a large popular audience of
non-scholars. Perhaps equally importantly, Schopenhauer was one of
the first European philosophers to take non-Western thought
seriously and to treat it as a living tradition rather than as a
mere object of study. This volume of new essays showcases the
enormous variety of contemporary scholarship on this monumental
text, as well as its enduring relevance.
