For the final blog post I’m doing a progress report for the final essay. I’ve been having a tough time deciding between either Nietzsche or Schopenhauer, while I find myself agreeing more with Nietzsche’s view of ethics I think that I find myself more interested in Schopenhauer’s views despite the fact that I don’t agree with a great deal of his ideas, because of the intersection of his ideas with eastern philosophy. I found the congruence between the piece on Buddhism and Schopenhaur’s ideas super interesting so I’ll mostly be focusing on “On The Suffering Of The World”. I might end up making the paper more of a critique but I’ll have to see how that works out.
