Abstract
This chapter o|ers a synoptic view of an important strand in Schopenhauer’s legacy, the philosophical interest of which remains underappreciated: the diverse attempts of certain highly creative thinkers in the period 1860–1880 to refashion Schopenhauer’s metaphysics of will in alternative and, they argue, more satisfactory and fruitful terms. The principal works in question are von Hartmann’s Philosophy of the Unconscious (1868), Nietzsche’s The Birth of Tragedy (1872), Mainländer’s Philosophie der Erlösung (Vol. 1, 1876), and Bahnsen’s Der Widerspruch im Wissen und Wesen der Welt (1880). The author’s aim is to compare these developments systematically and relate them back to the doctrines and tensions in Schopenhauer from which they originate, in each case drawing out their original features and indicating their philosophical rationale.
