  • Resumen

  • Arthur Schopenhauer (1788-1860) gave us valuable insights on human behaviour. Let us take a look at historical examples of Schopenhauer’s views on the nature of truth. First of all, Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592), a French philosopher, as a worthy predecessor of Schopenhauer. Like Schopenhauer, Montaigne remained outside academic circles, but wrote essays on the nature of truth. Montaigne did not offer answers as sophisticated as Schopenhauer, but spent years doing research on the reliability of human judgement and the certainty of knowledge. Also like Schopenhauer, Montaigne underlined the fallibility of human reason, especially when influenced by strong external factors. However, Montaigne was willing to accept a higher level of subjectivity than Schopenhauer. While Schopenhauer employed his theory of the will to seek the nature of truth, Montaigne regarded truth as contingent on the cultural context and individual circumstances.
