The idea of genius in Schopenhauer philosophy

Authors

  • Mohamed Koshaha

Abstract

The genius of Schopenhauer may be interpreted as a strong tendency towards liberation from the will as the world and the reality of existence, and genius as a faculty is the ability to completely depart from our own interest, our desires ... and is also closely linked to knowledge. The ability of a genius is to capture individual ideas of transcendence through pure meditation in nature and life.

The world and all its phenomena are linked to the ability of a genius to extend his imagination beyond the limits of his existence, so that he can access intellectual spaces, horizons of knowledge, creative concepts and renewed aesthetic pleasure.

Genius is sometimes represented as: a thought in which the perfection of work identifies with the intuitive knowledge of genius, simply revealing that genius is the whole of continuity in the state of pure cognition, and the loss of self in cognition, in conformity with the faculty of will.
