The present analysis considers the conflict  by confronting Schopenhauer as a `disciple-of-sorts of Kant' with  Schopenhauer as `Goethe's one-time collaborator on the theory of  colour'. Here the two meet over profound issues which the Scientific  Revolution of the 17th century has ineluctably put before us: what is  the right level at which to apprehend nature; what is the proper  foundation for a consistent ethics; how (if at all) to arrive at a  unified conception of a world broken by modern science? \u003cbr\u003e  In this deeply-delving, lucidly written, humane and erudite study, the  history of philosophical currents is blended with history of science,  with history of ideas generally, and (to elucidate relevant portions  of Schopenhauer's biography and intellectual and social environment)  with German history too. The analysis, while benefiting from the  scholarly literature, is grounded primarily in original research among  the collected works of Schopenhauer, Kant and Goethe, considered in  all their philosophical, scientific, and literary variety.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2010-12-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9789048155668\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9789048155668\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-94-015-9369-4\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 292\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359156170892,"sku":"9789048155668","price":153.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9789048155668.jpg?v=1755102929","url":"https:\/\/lateknightbooks.com\/products\/9789048155668","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
