Arthur Schopenhauer, On The Basis Of Morality - Antimoral Incentives And Motivation

Sadler's Lectures - A podcast by Lectures on classic and contemporary philosophical texts and thinkers by Gregory B. Sadler

Categories:

This lecture discusses the 19th century German Idealist philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's work, On The Basis of Morality, and focuses on his views on what he calls "antimoral incentives" (antimoralische Triebfedern), which include Egoism and Malice. Egoism is characteristic of all animal and human life, and leads people to focus on their own well-being or weal. Malice is focused on harm or woe to others.
