Arthur Schopenhauer, Idealism, Macedonio Fernández, MetaphysicsAbstract
In his metaphysical writings, published in the eighth volume of his complete works, Macedonio Fernández (1874-1952) often refers to Schopenhauer. I will attempt to comment on these passages, highlighting the idealism proposed by Macedonio, an author who corresponded with William James and whom Jorge Luis Borges considered his disciple.
