Arthur Schopenhauer: Perbedaan antara revisi

Karya-karya Schopenhauer juga dibaca dengan baik oleh para fisikawan terutama [[Albert Einstein|Einstein]], [[Erwin Schrödinger|Schrödinger]], [[Wolfgang Pauli]],<ref>{{Cite book|last=Howard|first=Don|year=1997|title=A Peek behind the Veil of Maya: Einstein, Schopenhauer, and the Historical Background of the Conception of Space as a Ground for the Individuation of Physical Systems|publisher=University of Pittsburgh Press|quote=Pauli greatly admired Schopenhauer. ...

Ketika [[Erwin Schrödinger]] menemukan karya-karya Schopenhauer (yang ia anggap sebagai "sarjana terhebat di Barat") ia mempertimbangkan untuk pindah bidang studi dari fisika ke filsafat.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Halpern|first=Paul|year=2015|title=Einstein's Dice and Schrödinger's Cat: How Two Great Minds Battled Quantum Randomness to Create a Unified Theory of Physics|publisher=Basic Books|isbn=978-0-465-04065-0|page=189}}</ref> Namun, Schrödinger tetap mempertahankan pandangan idealisnya selama sisa hidupnya.<ref>Howard (1997). p. 132</ref> [[Wolfgang Pauli]] setuju dengan prinsip utama metafisika Schopenhauer: bahwa [[An sich|benda dalam dirinya sendiri]] adalah kehendak.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Raymond B.

Schopenhauer paling terkenal di antara para artis dan seniman. Komposer [[Richard Wagner]] menjadi salah satu pengikut filsafat Schopenhauerian yang paling awal dan terkenal.<ref>See e.g. Magee (2000) 276–278.</ref> Namun, kekaguman Wagner tidaklah bersifat timbal-balik; Schopenhauer mengatakan: "Saya tetap setia pada Rossini dan Mozart!"<ref>{{Cite book|last=Nicholas Mathew, Benjamin Walton|title=The Invention of Beethoven and Rossini: Historiography, Analysis, Criticism|page=296}}</ref> Oleh karena itu, ia dijuluki “filsuf para artis”. Lihat juga [[Tristan und Isolde|Pengaruh Schopenhauer pada ''Tristan und Isolde'']].

Karena pengaruh Schopenhauer, sastrawan [[Leo Tolstoy]] menjadi yakin bahwa kebenaran semua agama terletak pada penolakan atau pengunduran diri. Ketika dia membaca filsafat Schopenhauer, Tolstoy berseru, “Saat ini saya yakin bahwa Schopenhauer adalah orang paling jenius di antara manusia... DiIni adalah seluruh dunia, ini adalahdalam refleksi yang sangat indah dan terang."<ref>Tolstoy's letter to Afanasy Fet on 30 August 1869. "Do you know what this summer has meant for me? Constant raptures over Schopenhauer and a whole series of spiritual delights as I've never experienced before. I have brought all of his works and read him over and over, Kant too by the way. Assuredly no student has ever learned and discovered so much in one semester as I have during this summer. I do not know if I shall ever change my opinion, but at present I am convinced that Schopenhauer is the greatest genius among men. You say he is so-so, he has written a few things on philosophy? What is so-so? It is the whole world in an incomparably beautiful and clear reflection. I have started to translate him. Won't you help me? Indeed, I cannot understand how his name can be unknown. The only explanation for this can only be the one he so often repeats, that is, that there is scarcely anyone but idiots in the world."</ref> Lebih lanjut Tolstoy mengatakan bahwa apa yang ditulisnya dalam ''[[War and Peace]]'' juga diungkapkan Schopenhauer dalam ''The World as Will and Representation''.<ref>{{Cite journal|last=Thompson|first=Caleb|year=2009|title=Quietism from the Side of Happiness: Tolstoy, Schopenhauer, War and Peace|url=https://muse.jhu.edu/article/316432|journal=Common Knowledge|volume=15|issue=3|pages=395–411|doi=10.1215/0961754X-2009-020}}</ref>

Penulis [[Jorge Luis Borges]] mengatakan bahwa alasan dia tidak pernah menulis secara sistematis tentang pandangan dunianya, meskipun dia menyukai filsafat dan metafisika pada khususnya, adalah karena Schopenhauer telah menuliskan untuknya.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Magee|first=Bryan|year=1997|title=Confessions of a Philosopher|page=413}}</ref> Tokoh-tokoh sastra lain yang sangat dipengaruhi oleh Schopenhauer antara lain [[Paul Thomas Mann|Thomas Mann]], [[Thomas Hardy]], [[Afanasy Fet]], [[Joris-Karl Huysmans]], [[Hermann Hesse]],<ref>Punsly, Kathryn (2012).
