ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER --- THE ART AND LITERATURE: ESSAYS --- A collection of essays from one of the great philosophers of the modern era, Arthur Schopenhauer. The German thinker contemplates subjects such as style, authorship, knowledge, criticism, fame, genius and thinking for oneself. Arthur Schopenhauer is an entertaining author to read, easy to understand, with a sly, dry wit.
