description The aim of this paper is based on a detailed reading and analysis of Schopenhauer's works - in particular, the third edition of The World as Will and Representation (Die Welt als Wille und Vorstelung) of 1844, On the Foundations of Morals (Über die Grundlage der Moral) of 1840, Parerga und Paralipomena (Parerga and Paralipomena) of 1851, and the author's lecture notes on ethics, The Metaphysics of Vice (Metaphisyk der Sitten) of 1820, to evaluate the importance of the concepts of egoism (Egoismus) and compassion (Mitleid) for life in society. We hope to explain the importance and impact of the concepts of egoism and compassion in the author's philosophy, as well as, on the one hand, to argue and defend the hypothesis that the first concept, used as a foundation for a pedagogy of egoism, would provide a more adequate basis for dealing with social, political, and legal issues - a reduction of the damage of existence - and, on the other hand, to verify the limitations of the concept of compassion for the same cases and, perhaps, its inflated value.

Espera-se explicitar a importância e o impacto dos conceitos de egoísmo e de compaixão na filosofia do autor, bem como, por um lado, apresentar e defender a hipótese de que o primeiro conceito, utilizado como alicerce para uma pedagogia do egoísmo, forneceria uma base mais adequada para a tratativa de questões sociais, políticas, jurídicas – uma redução de danos da existência – e, por outro, verificar as limitações do conceito de compaixão para os mesmos casos e, talvez, seu inflacionado valor.Universidade Federal de Santa Maria2024-12-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdftext/htmlhttps://periodicos.ufsm.br/voluntas/article/view/8844710.5902/2179378688447Voluntas: International Journal of Philosophy; Bd. 15 Nr. 2 (2024): Special Issue Schopenhauer: Society and Culture - Ed. 35; e88447Voluntas: International Journal of Philosophy; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2024): Special Issue Schopenhauer: Society and Culture - Ed. 35; e88447Voluntas: International Journal of Philosophy; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2024): Special Issue Schopenhauer: Society and Culture - Ed. 35; e88447Voluntas: International Journal of Philosophy; Vol. 15 No 2 (2024): Special Issue Schopenhauer: Society and Culture - Ed. 35; e88447Voluntas: International Journal of Philosophy; V. 15 N. 2 (2024): Special Issue Schopenhauer: Society and Culture - Ed. 35; e88447Voluntas: Revista Internacional de Filosofia; v. 15 n. 2 (2024): Ed.
