This book provides a detailed reconstruction of the origins of Schopenhauer's philosophy and its inherent aporias. It delves into young Schopenhauer’s introduction to philosophy and his initial endeavor to formulate a new metaphysics after Kant, known as the theory of "better consciousness." The book then demonstrates how the internal contradictions within that theory and Schopenhauer's transformative encounter with Indian wisdom lead him to abandon his first attempt and develop his metaphysics of will.
The last and most substantial chapter of the book focuses on the author's analysis of the inherent aporias within Schopenhauer's mature system.
