- dredmorbius 7y agoThanks. I've only recently really discovered Schopenhauer (having of course at least heard of him), and find his writing clear and appealing. Wonderful online essays collection: https://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/s/schopenhauer/arthur/essays/contents.html https://ebooks.adelaide.edu.au/s/schopenhauer/arthur/essays/... ("On Authorship and Style" was posted to HN a few months back.)
