Description
This book contains both major philosophical books authored by master of prose and philosopher of pessimism - Edgar Saltus. A talented writer, Saltus tackles topics of philosophy which might otherwise be dry or tedious with sparkling wit. Clarity is given to subjects which would normally turn off readers from approaching, and it is with an entertaining passion that Saltus tackles a variety of topics concerning pessimism, religion and human life. The Philosophy of Disenchantment is a retrospective examination of pessimism, with particular emphasis on philosophers such as Arthur Schopenhauer and Eduard Von Hartmann. By contrast, The Anatomy of Negation looks at writers and philosophers who present antitheism (a belief in no deity) as a tenet of their writings. Of principle concern here is the French author Leconte de Lisle and the ancient Hindu sage Kapila. Although a somewhat obscure philosopher in the modern day, Saltus remains one of the best introductions to moral pessimism and philosophy.
