What reading level is Thomas Hardy An Illustration of the Philosophy of Schopenhauer book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We do not either as philosopher or plain individual need to accept his doctrine that the "will to live" is everything. We are not obliged to say that the only road to happiness, if happi- ness it can be called, lies through the path of annihilation. But in these days of evolutionary doctrine and science, we cannot deny the seeming cruelty of the, struggle for existence; in these days of introspection we cannot deny the incessant alter- nation of restlessness and insipidity. The day has gone by ...when we could simply assert there was purposiveness, or lose ourselves in a mystic admiration of it. We must have what might be called a "working" purpose; that is one that will take into account just this tragically capricious element of purposelessness in life. The value of a pessimism such as that of Schopenhauer, then, is to drive those who cannot accept it to a higher optimism.
Schopenhauer gave a very complete picture of the ideal and practice of renunciation. It was to be a giving up of Digitized by Google 74 everything on the part of the individual and must, logically, result in race suicide.
