Summary: | Our text intends to highlight aspects of the relationship between theater as an art form and as a metaphor in Schopenhauer's philosophy, starting from the considerations about (a) the objective framework of existence as conservation, sexuality and death, (b) the tragedy as dramatization of conflict intimacy of the will and resignation to this objective picture of existence and (c) the wisdom of life as a theater in which the human puppet wears a porcupine costume to find the most adequate distance from other people who represent it the warmth of protection, security and compassion, but on the other hand, they also represent the stings of other needy and starved individual wants like yours.
