The Basis of Morality is a philosophical treatise written by Arthur Schopenhauer in 1915. In this book, Schopenhauer explores the fundamental principles of morality and ethics. He argues that the basis of morality is compassion, which is the ability to empathize with the suffering of others. Schopenhauer also discusses the concept of the will, which he believes is the driving force behind all human actions. He argues that the will is inherently selfish and that true morality requires individuals to overcome their own self-interest and act in the interest of others. Schopenhauer's ideas have had a significant impact on modern philosophy, particularly in the areas of ethics and morality. The Basis of Morality is a thought-provoking and challenging read that will appeal to anyone interested in the nature of human behavior and the foundations of morality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
