The text delves in...
the start of this volume, Schopenhauer outlines his intention to critique Kantian philosophy, recognizing Kant's significant contributions while also challenging various aspects he deems erroneous. He emphasizes the distinction between phenomena (things as we perceive them) and noumena (things in themselves), acknowledging Kant's framing of this debate but seeking to clarify and refine it further. Schopenhauer argues that true knowledge transcends mere abstraction and calls for a deeper understanding of the relationship between the perceiver and the perceived, setting the stage for his own philosophical assertions.
