Summary "Uren met Schopenhauer" by Arthur Schopenhauer is a philosophical compilation written in the early 20th century. The text serves as a selection of excerpts from Schopenhauer's works, annotated and introduced by Prof. Dr. Jhr. B. H. C. K. van der Wijck. The book explores the ideas of will, knowledge, and the duality of appearances and reality as expressed by Schopenhauer, highlighting the contrast between intellectualism and voluntarism. At the start of the text, the author references a discussion surrounding the nature of philosophical inquiry, indicating the importance of separating the philosopher from their work. The opening portion delves into the dichotomy between intellectualist thinkers like Thomas Aquinas and voluntarists like Duns Scotus, setting the stage for Schopenhauer's ideas. It discusses how these contrasting views have influenced modern philosophy, particularly Schopenhauer's pivotal beliefs regarding the fundamental nature of will as the driving force behind human existence, contrasting this notion against rationalist frameworks typical of thinkers such as Hegel.
