«L'arte di ottenere rispetto» is the philosophical essay by Arthur Schopenhauer, published by Newton Compton Editori in paperback (69 pages, in Italian).
Schopenhauer starts from a premise: honour is the opinion others have of us. From there he reviews its forms (private, public, sexual, national and chivalric), the last governed by unreason and physical force. The cultivated man, with an aristocracy of feelings, does not fear insults. The text cites classical authors, Shakespeare and Voltaire.
Complete edition with an introduction by Gian Carlo Giani; the text comes from the original 'Skitze einer Abhandlung über die Ehre'.
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.
