«L'arte di farsi rispettare esposta in 14 massime» is Arthur Schopenhauer's philosophical treatise, published by Adelphi in paperback, in Italian.
Schopenhauer analyzes honor as a public sentiment present in every society and distinguishes its species: private, professional, commercial, public, national and sexual. The book, rescued from the philosopher's posthumous papers, proposes fourteen maxims for preserving one's reputation in the face of adversity, with ironic observations on the differences between men and women.
First published in 1998 in the Piccola Biblioteca Adelphi series (no. 410), edited by Franco Volpi and translated by Giovanni Gurisatti.
A title for readers of practical philosophy and classic essays interested in reputation, honor and Schopenhauer's posthumous work.
Arthur Schopenhauer was a German philosopher and writer. He is known for his 1818 work The World as Will and Representation, which characterizes the phenomenal world as the manifestation of a blind and irrational noumenal will. Building on the transcendental idealism of Immanuel Kant, Schopenhauer developed an atheistic metaphysical and ethical system that rejected the contemporaneous ideas of German idealism.
